One thing that does concern me is if i'll fit (six foot four and 17 stone) and wondered if it would be ok to pop along at newark and have a sit in a couple of cars (i hear that seat/configuration is key to gtms) Border line, I'm sure you'll be welcomed to try  And Welcome by the way.

Re: The National Kit Car Festival, Newark, 18th/19th June 2011 i read somewhere from an original review that the company were claiming that anyone up to 6ft 8 would fit, but yes after searching through this forum 6 ft 4 seems on the limit.
i guess its all relative. my daily hack is a vauxhall corsa and thats quite small!

Re: The National Kit Car Festival, Newark, 18th/19th June 2011 @ Swanny, Maybe dbanes would lend you his tarmac shaver to take off a couple of inches?

Re: The National Kit Car Festival, Newark, 18th/19th June 2011  I discovered that if I take the edge of the bump I clear it, phew. Too much rain today, I'll head up tomorrow. David.

Re: The National Kit Car Festival, Newark, 18th/19th June 2011 Hi I finished my coupe 2 months ago and my target was to attend Newark this year. I set off from Peterborough and broke down outside Spalding. I'm back home now with the help of a fellow kit car owner. I will try to fix all the problems but not by tomorrow (19th).  Hope to get to the next show. Roger

Re: The National Kit Car Festival, Newark, 18th/19th June 2011 Excellent show, good to meet you all, the alternator work all the way home for temporary fix was worth while. Great day cheers all

Re: The National Kit Car Festival, Newark, 18th/19th June 2011 I have to apologize for bailing out, family issues.
Looking forward to seeing pics.
