Not Ranked
The gathering in question was intended to include only the True Thames Ditton Automobiles so when the MkIVs began to park amongst them, words were said. Not an great moment and one which clouded my opinion of club and several members! No names etc. Some of the 'modern' owners drove off, never to renew their membership. It's very sad when some of the elder members consider that post-Ditton automobiles are inferior since those owners are the future life-blood of the club.
The MkIV/CRS brigade is by far the largest section of the club with over 450 cars registered, so can hardly be overlooked. However, that is where the story of AC will end since nothing, a few 'continuations' excepted, has been built that is worthy of consideration. Chances of anything worthwhile appearing in the future is somewhere between remote and zero.
I'll continue to haunt Club Cobra as the issue is not taken so seriously that you can't have a laugh, for goodness sake. Unlike the UK equivalent where humor is all but banned....
And Jamo still reads my book on the can...... ;-)
