What are the dates. Could probably google it but thought I would ask here instead. I'll more than likely stay at my Dads in Cannock for this one.

correct

Does everyone normally go out on the friday night or the sat, or both?

Who's D's are on display this year? Is pilot 20 putting in an appearance again?

[Guinney1971]

its usually done so that different cars go on each year - DGS was at the NEC
quite abit when Mark had her, and she was also on display in 2002 IIRC.

Flopsy was there in 2003, but had another turn in 2006 as a last minute
'standby' car.

Generally, folks contact the DOC Events Organiser and offer their cars for
display, and then the display cars are selected from there - obviously it all
depends on how much space we are allocated.

Cheers,

[Dan6457]

Ooo I didn't know mine had been at the NEC Anyone have any pictures of it?

Cheers, Dan.

[Guinney1971]

yeah loads!! lol

I'll sort you out a CD of pics of DGS and give it to you at Eurotec if you want?

Years ago, before the club got as big as it is now, it was often the 'usual suspects'
at car shows, ie DGS803X, SIJ1079 and one of Chrispy's or Dave Howarths
fleet of De's :wink:

However now, there are so many more cars to choose from that more people
get a chance to have their cars molested at the big indoor shows. :wink:

2 years ago at the NEC (having put 'please do not touch' signs on the car)
I got that fed up with some bloke pawing my car that I handed him the stainless
cleaner and a cloth - give him his dues, he cleaned his fingerprints off the car! lol :lol:

Cheers,

[Dan6457]

That will be great to have those pictures

My car was covered in prints after the Alexandra palace the other month :roll: I can understand why people want to touch but it is annoying :lol:
