Curborough Taster Day 22nd March 2015
Lovely day at the Curborough Sprint Taster day and a very grateful thanks to Graham for providing the Yellow Cab! Fully air conditioned as well...he is so thoughtful!!
Managed to hobble around on my crutches and see everything and bump into a few TMers as well...always a bonus! Was very impressed with the dark green Plus4 with the Lotus Twin Cam engine which I believe is a replica of an Australian car of some note. Also VERY impressed with the two cars Cerealsurfer brought up in his equally impressive trailer. Sadly I was flagging a bit so didn't get any photos.

John glad you were able to get around & have a day out. Lovely photos Thanks John. It was good to get out and enjoy Morgan's again! With the bonus of a very breezy trip in Graham's 4/4! The old ankles suffering this morning....but it was worth it! Main thing is you were out and about Jay, the soreness will fade the memories will last much longer. I hope Graham behaved himself.....;-) (some hope ;-))

As there is usually a camera case in the passenger footwell, the vents are shut to try to keep the FILM cool!

What a fantastic day aided by the sunshine  and lots of laps. A big thank you to the organisers for a well run event and Jonathan for a superb track walk and giving us the benefit of your experience. I think I got the lines bang on by the end of the day and hungry for more

It was a great day! Shame you didn't take a picture of the magnificent 4/4 4 seater in paddock number 1. What a beauty that was!!
The lotus twin cam is base on Ken Wards 1963 4/4. It's in the book "Morgan 4/4 the first 75 years" by Michael Palmer pages 133 - 136
The one at Curborough is my father in laws and I helped build the beast!
