Great work Connor, absolutely lovely that A8 RRU is, I'm sorry, I meant photos of all cars

Another proof that this year Annual Meet was a great success is the poll results for next year. For this year we've had only 12 votes, after this year meet and huge success there has been staggering 57 VOTES !!!!! already.
Coincident, I don't think so...

Again, THANK YOU to Three Musketeers

The 2 voting threads are not really comparable, I'm afraid. For the 2014 meet, we stipulated "vote for one location only" as all were in Scotland. The 2015 vote allows you to vote for multiple locations, hence the high number. But there are at least 17 individuals who have voted, so still pretty good.

It's quite interesting reading the 2014 thread, especially those who said they wouldn't be able to make it, but did!

I'm still reeling from the staggering level of support for this year's meet. You guys really made it great!
