    Default 2018 Shows - Chat, abuse, discuss, or ignore :p

    So, this year PNG made it to Combe Spring Action Day (with MIG), PVS, VBOA (notBilling) at Market Harborough and Retro Rides Gathering.

    We would have also been at PVS2, if kelsey hadnt cancelled it, BOOO HISSSSS

    I know it wasnt many, but (form a selfish point of view) reallly really enjoyed each and every one of them.

    So, onto 2018...
    Who wants what?
    rough chronological order

    Combe Spring Action Day, typically early April
    Scotlands Viva Vauxhall at Crail
    OH HELLO!!!
    Retro Rides Weekender
    Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th May 2018
    Goodwood Circuit
    Saturday : Track action, special themed paddock displays, trade stands, retro parking through the venue
    Sunday : Club stands on track, club/group promenade/parade laps, special themed paddock displays, trade stand

    PVS (no dates as yet) - POD
    Retro Show - POD (usually the weeka fter PVS)
    Tatttttton northern show thing?
    VBOA show is (as many of you who use FB know), is pencilled in for 13/14/15th of July, many comments taken on board WRGT the layout etc but the important one is there will be a BAR friday and saturday nights, along with Bands on both nights, IIRC Hendrix will try and get his lot on the line up
    RRG -Shelseleeseey Walsh(if they let us back in.... Daz, behave you whore)
    Collective, if it still eixsts?
    TRAX? does anyone care?
    PVS2 (assumed to be cancelled )

    I'd LOVE to do a euro show next year, nothing tooooooo far, but something Dutch or German would work, any thoughts?

    As ever, where possible PNG would like to try and help with ticket prices, but its not always possible. Theb Loonaque will be at as many shows as possible (Combe will be ticky as they dont permit charcoal BBQ but do let Gas in, so mods needed), with complimentary food and soft drinks where possible.

    I've always gone solo at car shows WRT family, but next year littleung (well shes not so little at a tall 9yr old) will be joining me for atleast the VBOA weekend, so that will focus the mind on helping to sort fun stuff to do there, she may join for other shows too, so a nice big push to make it as family yet wreckless as possible will be on the table. Also I believe its some sort of Nova landmark year Boffer posted on FB about something, cant recall what it was but its a big number

    Get yer cars out next year folks!
    talk, abuse, etc.... I 100% expect a moan about photos here (I've been given the link to the retrorides thread about fixing it, and it will happen, be patient), and that FB has killed the world, so shove those comments up yer arse

    Oh, also, any small local car shows that are on most/every year near you? Then shout about them, even if its a few cars and a banner, its a win.

    p.s. voulenteeeeers for events help would be more than welcomed.
    pps, club packs are umm underway... only 130ish to do, I'm sorry, thats all I can say.

    I see Tatton got a mention !
    It will again be a nova stand there 3/4 June.
    As with last year possibly an offer is there to put the stand under PNG banner but otherwise it will go ahead outside of PNG.

    Good thinking Stu, get these sorted early.
    Would the landmark be 35 years of the Nova?

    Retro Rides is a must for me next year, was great, probably even the weekends as well.

    Good local one, which isn't far off the A14 at Bury St Edmunds is Cars on the Green and Nowton Park. Normally is the 2nd weekend of June which clashes with the Retro Show? At Santa pod.
    Been the last 3 years, however next year we're likely to miss it to go on holiday...

    Re the Euro trip, we could do Wales... The Big Welsh Car Show is in a whole other country and is a national event!
