anyone come to this years Motofest? I'm not that into cars but it does really please me to see the city putting events on like this.
The common jets were a decent band playing yesterday in the new square over the ring road (not sure what it's called).
Give it a few years and I think the event will be huge, possibly with a proper race around the city.
Yep, I hate 'cars and motoring' with a passion, but am really happy the city has something on for thousands to enjoy.
Good point. So I guess you'd be fine with some minor disruption at the BPA every second Saturday then?
Otis. BPA is 5 minutes from my house amd I have no problem with the proposed move.
Can I park at yours when we move??![]()
Saw some of the drifting yesterday by ikea, nearly caused a crash with a bloke too busy watching while driving past!

I did the full two days pretty much. First time I've been able to make it. Lots to see and do, only bit I didn't get round to was the drifting in the small arena because it always seemed full, and being a shortarse would have wanted to be near the front. Saw some from the green bank across the road though.
Really enjoyed getting up close with the action on the ring road. Some very nice cars and motorcycles. Got lots of videos to edit, and plenty of up close images.
Credit to the team for getting something like this done. It's a great event, done really well. Hope to make it back next year!
sw88, did you see a "Byatts Brewery" stall, as I believe they were going to be there?
I'm not into cars, but was tempted to go down and have a peruse with a lovely ale in hand!
Date has been set for 2 June 2018Presume it'll be two days again
Apparently the trucks had another event so couldn't make it this year. Hope they're back for next. Some of those drivers didn't have a care when putting their foot down(for the possibility they may hit the barriers I mean....)
Didn't one of them have a crash last year? I'm sure I remember seeing one had hit a barrier sonewhere!
