Rick....you didn't happen to make it to the Conclave in the Black Hill's did you? Didn't think to ask before the event. We made it and thought it came off quite well. Saw Nelson and his Mk2 Sprite there.

I saw a picture of Nelson's Car - I presume you connected with Mark (Abarth69) and his Innocenti C

That was the first time I had my car out this year. The engine came out in March so I could install a fast road cam. After putting it together I blew up the pistons and had to have them custom made because of my over bore. I had 10 miles on the engine when i left for Conclave. I don't know if Kurt connected with Mark but I did.

Mark posted the pic of you parked next to him (or close) - great shot and looks like a great time! Ms Triss is currently parked up needing a water pump and various other gubbins
