The upcoming meet is on the 13th of April 2024 - I am looking to go for the first time in 4 or 5 years(!) since these meets usually fall on the same weekend as the opening season of fighting robotics. Unsure if I'll be coming in my 454 or either of my 450s but am aiming to go. Anyone else?

I'll be there in my 454 as well (sans the rear spoiler, I've not had a chance to work on that just yet though the remants of the original are on the back seat). Neither of the 450's are ready for a long trip just yet.

I'll probably have a tape measure with me for measuring the OEM spoiler dimensions. ;)

Well at least 4 of us managed to 'brave' the glorious sunshine
and make it to this event, although the overall turnout of all
models was somewhat disappointingly low  ::)

The 454 contingent comprised of yours truly, cecil, jmariog and hero of the day had to be
mr singh who trekked all the way down from Leeds  :)

Regretably jmariog left before l took the photo below (only members can see the photo).
(but if he had been there when l took it there would have been a BMini between his car and ours)

it was a really nice catch up and i honestly wasnt expecting a massive 454 turn out, but i was a little disappointed with the over all turn out. previous turn outs, the car park has been full, this time, there was space to be seen.
