Anyone know what the parking will be like as thinking of taking the elise?

We had to park on longish grass last year in the elise, it was ok, not the best though. We left when it started to rain and some people were having traction issues. Try and get on a flat bit, a lot of it is on a slope though :?

Fingers crossed it'll be dry!

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Without wishing to offend SE's supercar owners.... is the Motorshow actually any good? Is it worth a visit? What are the attractions when there? I have vague recollections of it being criticised in the last couple years on here :?

I've read KH's webpage advertising it... but always good to hear from horses' mouths :thumbsup

Its hard to say tbh.

if i wasnt on track i wouldnt go personally, but if your at a loose end, should be a bit of a laugh and some rare cars up there.

Certainly wouldnt plan to make a day of it - but come and say hi anyway :thumbsup

Me too. I wouldn't be there unless I wasn't displaying/tracking the SV. Not very keen to track the SV as the paint could be damaged :oops: Don't think the suspension and brakes are good enough for tracking either.
