Thanks Stephen,
With my colleagues Tony Flint (founder) & Robin Donovan we hope to create something different for the Classic & Vintage enthusiast here in Scotland.
After a successful launch to promote the event (video) we are hoping to attract around 1000 vehicles to exhibit over the weekend where Historic, Racing & motorsports will be a prominent feature.
Our aim in the near future is to see the return, and display one of the V16 BRM's that featured at the disused Turnberry airfield (next to Culzean) In 1952 the site hosted an event with drivers like Mike Hawthorn, Stirling Moss, Ken Wharton, Reg Parnell etc. and Ecurie Ecosse drivers Ninian Sanderson and Ian Stewart. They competed in legendary cars like the Thinwall special, ERA and Connaught GP cars.
Will keep you posted and try to get some answers to your comments.
Regards, Les.

Dear Les
Well done!!!
A great tribute to your and our love of the automobile.
I'd love to meet you and attend your annual event.
What would it take to create an event on the scale of the "Goodwood Revival" in Scotland?
How many people own vintage cars in Scotland (?) and in the UK (?).
FYI - its about 4 million in the USA.
All the best - Stephen
