Bring back Retro's! Sad

Now that the dust has settled and the body has recovered following the late night Sunday drinks with my Driver Karl Grehan, Kevin Fagan, Paul Nolan, Dave Cormac, Peespeed amongst others!!!! Pity Philip had to go home after the prizegiving.

Well done the Organising Team especially Michael Jackson, Mickey Gabbett, Fred Bent, Frank Fennell & Phelix on putting together a Brilliant Event with an excellent choice of Tests, Roads & Scenery.

Special thanks must go to Karl for putting up with me and a my antics throughout the event especially in Gabbetts Farm on Sunday Evening chasing Bernard Bradley!!!!!

We Had a great battle and craic with the 2 other Starlet Crews Philip/Kevin and Paul/Dave throughout the event. Roll on next year.

Again ? !!! He's kept that very quite. Maybe Karl and Daniel could make one good pair from two sets !!! LOL

To be fair, cracking result to the lads, though.

Absolutely massive thanks to all in TDC who made this event happen the way it did, I heard nothing but good comments all weekend about the quality of organisation, marshalling and routes set out by FF, the two Michaels, Fred Bent, Felix and last but not least Noel Broderick who sewed the seed for this event nearly 18 months ago now.

It was my first ever Retro and the first Kevin had done in a long time. Some bits were a serious challenge to both driver and navigator yet at all times enjoyable. Great to see such varied metal out there too, with everything from Minis to Mustangs with the odd Starlet thrown in for good measure.

It was great that the event was a real social occasion too with all the little coffee breaks during the weekend and the dinner on Sunday evening, I really did want to stay Eoin but work beckoned the next morning, I heard the G&Ts were going down nicely!

Congrats to Owain and Matthew for the overall win in that immaculate Escort, and to everyone who travelled from near and far to make the event what it was, I for one will definitely be getting the entry in for next years event early.

Special thanks must as always go to the army of marshals who turned out for the weekend, they were always cheery and smiley even when it was cold outside or indeed very heated inside the car at their time point!

Philip

Yep, brilliant event. Really enjoyed the tests and the average speed thing, not so fond of getting lost, but really enjoyed trying to make up the time.

Unfortunately the car I was driving (Ian's lovely MG Midget) broke a half shaft or diff on Saturday evening. Still really enjoyed the day and a half of action, and became more comfortable with the Midget as the day went on.
