Apologies if in the wrong section - a few pics from today:

Only a few from today - i was busy doing nothing and dodging the rain so i couldn't get the hubble out to snipe anyone so you are all safe lol

Great turnout and good to see the two clubs together - big thumbs up to Scott and Stuart for organising :thumleft:

Shame the Gazebo's went to ground though :shock:

Damn was it windy at times though!!

Good to meet some new IMOC people and chat and good to see Pete and Chris (OC) on the M5 along with the grey tubby and the awesome black tubby with the Enkei's (IMOC) give me a wave on the M5/M6 too :th:

Good stuff :thumleft:

The carribean blue car was Matt Ross's from the OC - it's a rev3 N/A with a few goodies on it along with a Rev 5 spoiler and a bomex UAD-180 lip.

The 5ZR wheels belong to MRAndy on the OC - they look very similar to PeteJ's - very tasty \:D/

Thanks for all the comments guys. It was a great feeling getting there early for set up, then a stream of MR2's all snaking towards the stand in a couple of waves. Makes me feel proud to be part of it all.
