I was hoping to arrange something different for this date (big secret lol) but I couldn't get arranged parking at the venue on this day

 

So....... I was up town today and someone left a leaflet for this event under my windscreen wiper

 

Runway Display

Stafford Car Show

The car show offering visitors a diverse range of events and displays to view or participate in. Runway Display is located in Stafford on a former airfield with 5.5 Acres of tarmac to accommodate thousands of cars ranging from modern Super Cars to Retro and Classic rarities!

 

Highlights include a 4x4 Off Road course, Rally track and Stunt drive experience! Children need not be left out as there will be a Bouncy Castle and other rides to keep them occupied.

Cost is £3.00 to exhibit - and apparently there are discounts for car clubs

 

This looks like a fun day out - As it is close to me I am going to display my car anyway even if just as an individual (looks like they have lots of space so we can still get in)

 

Is anyone else interested in joining me and waving the 300ZX banner?

 

Obviously I need to move pretty quick on this one so no dawdling now lol

 

Convoy meeting point for those heading M6 south - J17 Sandbach Services. Anyone heading M6 North - there is an industrial estate near M6 J14 we can meet up with you

Looks like a great day sorry i couldn't come today I've got a hole in my exhaust

Next year then!

 

How about getting 10 zeds in a line across that runway?

Thanks for being accommodating to the 350z interloper and many thanks to Ian Greenfield for giving it a good polish for me. Will get my bucket and sponge out before the next meet ;)

 

And was nice meeting you Rich after having seen your zed at Lee's a few times it's always good to put a face to the owner :)

 

I thought it was rather a good show, especially if it was the first year they've been running it (I wasn't aware of that 'til reading this thread). A catering van or 2 and less officious supervisors would make for a great show next year :thumbup1:

More photo sets have been added (use link above)

 

Had an email from the organisers today and we are welcome to return - they are gonna reinvest the money raised from this pilot event in marketting and facilities to make Runway Display 2015 an even bigger and better event

 

I for one will be giving it another go - and hope a few others will want to join me

 

I can't quite put my finger on it but there's something about this rather unusual show on Tarmac that I liked

 

From their website:

 

Our Mission statement for 2015:

 

[] Runway Display will become a Motor Show and not just a car show. As long as it has four wheels or more then it can be displayed at the event!

[] A Trade Village - We aim to have a minimum of 20 trade stands.

[] Cars of the decades - A section dedicated to the most iconic 5 cars from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s

[] Film star Cars - We will have an array of replica cars from the big screen.

[] More facilities to cater for more guests

[] A fun fair for the kids

[] Show and Shine and competition

[] Best Club Stand competition

Yes our cars got a lot of attention throughout the day, lots of really nice comments. And to top it all off the rain stayed away.
