About 8 or so years ago I was in REVS magazine (anyone remember that?).
They organised a Ford -v-Rover 1/4 mile shootout at Alconbury airfield, and I attended in my car at the time.
(Modified Montego MG-Turbo)
The day was billed as an "old mans" -v- "chavs" shootout and the cover picture for the article had me and a mate dressed up with a pipe / flat cap / slippers / stick facing off against a couple of ford lads with bling chains and baseball caps, with our cars lined up in the background.
It was really funny - great day out with loads of cars attending - some really nice cars and a few quick times.
Jamie from Jamsport was there in his RS-Turbo and he very kindly fixed my throttle cable when it snapped suring my second 1/4 mile run - he probably doesnt even remember but I have a nice picture of him with his head in the engine bay!
If I can find some pics I will post them up
