I think that meeting was slowly building up into something, the longer it ran
traditional track
traditional date
traditional meeting
and just when we had all gotten used to it and reserved the slot in our diaries...
meaning well
the HSCC did not do it because they had their aniversary and wanted to go to Castle Combe where they had their first meeting
and that seems to have killed the Thruxton meeting
at least for now
as i said, well meant
and usually the HSCC are clever and stick to established formats
mind you
the Easter date was not without problems
some wives did not like the idea of their husband going racing over Easter instead of hunting eggs with the brats
