https://www.beaulieu.co.uk/events/simply-smart/
Regretably I won't be able to attend as I am competing in a
6hr Interclub slot car Endurance event at the club that I am
Chairman/Treasure of. (It is a 100ft 'Ninco' 6 lane plexi-track
located in the same 'Industrial Park' as S2smarts)

boys and toys...
Thus speaks 'Gadget Boy' with his collection of R/C models....
(Takes one to know one, eh ?) :P
-
I am hoping to attend now the car is working properly lol. It seems that as each year passes the Forfour attendees drop. It is a good day out
-
I am not gonna attend if it’s just me and you :)
It’s not a date hahaha
JJ
-
Probably see you there? ;)
-
I’m prob not going to be there - I have so much on and so little time :(
JJ
-
Ah, shame. :(
-
According to Facebook there are another three Brabus coming
-
Wonder who they might be !
And if they are on the forum, why haven't they said ?
Or are they on the forum....and if not....WHY NOT ?
(If anyone is going, rope them in....)
I'm gonna hazard a guess that 1 will be Kate ( lil.smartie) in a Gen.2
and maybe Fudge in his Gen.1 ..whatever....

Left Devon early yesterday morning to drive up to Beaulieu. Driving the Brab was a joy as always and I arrived at about 10:30. Quite a few others were already there and I was guided into the forfour section. Had a chat with some other owners before the 11:00 2 minutes silence. Had a mooch around to check out the other cars. There was only one other Mk 1 Brab forfour and a couple of Mk 2 ones. 11 forfours in total.
A spot of lunch and a good look around the fantastic museum before a trouble free and pleasurable return to the West Country. A good day. ;)
Mk 1 Brab/Mk 2 Brab...

Reading Brabs posting it looks like just the pair of you were there
with your Gen.1 Brabus ForFour's....so one was a 'no show'.
So....11 ForFour's made it eh ? And from Brab's photo's and the
large turnout of Smart's that dare I say it, it was a poor showing of the
ForFour's but about par for any Smart event !
It's not too hard to understand why I stopped organising ForFour events,
but I do still wonder why there is such a big difference in attitude and the
enthusiasm between ForFour owners and those of the other Smart models.
We all say we love our ForFour's, but we don't seem to show it in the
same way as other Smart owners, or am I missing something quite
fundamental here ?

I was gutted I couldn't go but I had family commitments
-
I live in Harrow and see lots of older for fours every day . Need to do a flyer about forfour .co.uk .could stick on windscreens. Can think of 5 I could do in mile radius from me.
-
A 'flyer' for the forum ?
Cough cough..... ;)

I’m sorry if I offend by saying this but the MK1 Brabus is far better looking than the MK2
