It is clear how much work goes into such machines – from complete engine rebuilds and up-rated aftermarket engine parts, to re-sprays and hydraulic installs. People from across the UK attend the show starter and this year’s show has been set back an extra month. Why?

The fields where bogged down, cars were being towed out and general disappointment was on everyone’s face.
