Indeed Chris.....also been working on mine today.....exhaust manifold gaskets finally given up...so it sounds like tractor! It's booked to have new stainless systems fitted in one next couple of weeks.
If I don't make it tomorrow.....it won't be for the want of trying!

Thanks for making it happen Chris, lovely to get back out and about again. Just for a while it felt like Coronavirus had never happened. Nice to see some old friends and new, and certainly the nearest DeLorean event to home that I shall ever get to!!

Just had a nice email from the Museum :-
Hi Chris,
A very big THANKYOU from us all to you
all the De Lorean owners who made so many adults and children happy yesterday.
Enthusiasm is a much needed commodity on these still uncertain times and yours in particular brought some much needed sunshine into a rather grey day.
I hope we will see the DeLoreans again before too long.
Very best
Richard , Jason and team.

It was definitely a great day and good to see everyone again after silverstone and meet a few new people.

had a brilliant day out, I think Phill's BTTF camcorder went down well, there were lots of happy kids
posing for photos in their Marty outfits with it.
Thanks for organising it Chris, I've got loads of photos on my big camera, so happy to write an article
for the magazine if you want.

Those are amazing shots Ryan! Great job! I really want a drone now! (oh no!)
I promise I was there over the weekend. Not that you can tell from any of the photographic evidence I've seen so far. Sorry I'm a bit late to say the following, a sudden distraction of my car throwing a wobbly.
I had a great day, in some amazing company. Great to see everyone again, some of you for the first time in a very long time indeed! Always looking forward to the next event. Good show out from everyone who came along. Everyone's cars are looking excellent. I'm just sorry I never got to hear Chrispy's car leave. Perfectly timed for my absence from the car park Chris!

Brilliant Drone pictures!!
[attachment=1194]Well its difficult for me say how loud it was.....what with being inside the car and my hearing had got worse recently......BUT...I bet it was still quieter than the stright-trough system on my BTTF car !

Leanne and I have discussed it, and I think we'd be up for going to this again this year. I'm needing more excuses to get the car out more often.
