I have to say that that has to have been the worst organisation I have ever seen for an event like this. The show itself was good, lots of cars to see but it took 2 hours 45 minutes to get out. We decided that we would head off at 3.45 and we didnt get onto the road until 6.30.

Your not too far wrong there.....

As Mike said, it was a good show with a serious amount of cars on display (that was probably the reasons for the poor exit strategy by the organizers). Getting out was a nightmare. The only positive thing I have to say about it is that the cooling system on the 'A' works great, as it got well tested...

By the time we had cleared up the stand and started to head out it was nearly 7pm but didn't manage to make it to the gate til after 8pm and then were another hour trying to get to the other side of Abbeyleix..

That's Durrow off the list for next year. How did they manage to let such grade A plonkers manage the traffic.
Never again.
