    Retro Rides Gathering 2010 Sunday, 8th August. Haynes Motor Museum

    This was brilliant fun last year, well worth a look, and a TS stand would be welcomed. If you've never seen a Transit van, a Datsun estate car or a 50's articulated lorry tractor go round a track then best get down there.

    Thought i'd add some pics taken by various people last year to give you a feel for the event, it will be even bigger and better this year with some major builds expected to be ready for the show, with the Haynes motor museum on the site and the fleet air arm museum just up the road there's plenty to make the drive and overnight camping worthwhile.

    the organisers are pretty keen to get a site like turbosport to have a stand on the day

    i'm up for appearing on the stand... sounds like all you have to do is reserve a place (min 4 cars) then each individual will get their own tickets either in advance or on the day

    Aye, lots of convoys already going from various parts of the country, camping is a right laugh and theres loads to see down that way if you want to make a weekend of it, i prefered it to Santa Pod as a venue, just needs a TS stand to make it complete.

    I prefer santa pod, as it takes 20 minutes to get there for me

    have family down that way, and an old friend lives in Taunton, so more reason for me to go.

    Thought I'd ping this up the board as it isn't long to go and we'd love to see some more Turbosport cars there
