Autosport Show 12-15 Jan 2012 NEC Birmingham

Well it’s that time of year again…

Anyone going?

Will there be anything special to see this year?

No , but may do the Historic one at Stonleigh

Likewise. I’m hoping to go on Friday 24th http://www.raceretro.com/

Yep Friday with BFF lol Markyb :smiley:

Going thursday,

Thursday for me too. Hopefully it will be a cheap day. The last few years have all been pretty much the same old stuff, but I still enjoy it as a day out.

I’ll be there Friday. On stage at 1 o’clock, I think.

Are you singing a song Mike??

Not planning to but you never know…

Just stuff about the VSCC sporting calendar for 2012 I suspect.

Ground Control to Major Mike
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God’s love be with you

Very Birthday topical Ben.

Excellent, that’s just brill, Ben :smiley:

Ben, are you comparing me to David Bowie or merely suggesting that I’ve lost it and that I am operating from off-planet. Both are probably justified, of course! Except the bisexual bit.

Didn’t Mr Bowie just qualify for his bus pass?

Mickey Stripedust :wink:

Mike Stripe = Mickey Stripedust

David Bowie = Ziggy Stardust

Pesky = lateral thinking?

Nah it was the penchant for wearing catsuits and makeup that made the connection for me :wink:

Thanks!

OK, a good day at the show. Tie up with Bonhams and our 2012 calendar on the live stage at about 1.15pm. I then managed to swing a private and long interview with Claudio Berro, Director of Motorsport at Lotus. I’ll do an article for Chicane.
