Re: Bit of a Blast from the past.
No problem guys, I enjoyed it and agree where has it gone? You've all probably been going a lot longer then me but my first show was 1994/5 at Stoneleigh, parking in some cattle sheds. Been to loads of various Ford shows since but that was the most exciting. It was called a convention, the cattle sheds were over flowing and roads around were packed with 2.8i's nose to tail, seems like five years ago not 27. I then went to a Mania event where the cars were a bit wild and modified. Not my thing. I later that year went to the CCI nationals at Sheriffs Lench, it hammered down at one point.

Off topic, but just re-read your post from some time back `White Goods`. That sums up so much of what I find depressing nowadays, really excellent post!

Hi,
another old fashioned Capri Story video :

My youtube downloader doesn't work for this video. Could anybody try to download it? To find out if the error is on my PC or in the video.
Thanks
Tom

Hi Tom,
Great video this. I just downloaded it successfully with a free web base saver called, 'savefrom.net' if this helps? I tried a few others, but they all wanted me to download their software for free.... Always suspicious of those...
Also thanks for the first video here 'EssexV6essex', nice one... Cheers,
John...

Simon in the race car was a regular on here. There are a few in-car vids of him on various tracks.
