richard w Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I don't know if we were the only ones, but in all the excitement of getting back to Enfield we completely forgot to hand in our nomination for "Car of the Run"I hope it's not too late, but our vote goes to Dieter Seidel and Susi Frey's blue TR4 - entry no. 108. We both liked their car, their commitment in driving all the way from Germany in order to take part, but most of all Dieter and Susi who were both lovely, friendly people.Richard and Enzo - Team 94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cook1e Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Didn't even realise we were suppossed to niminate a car of the run before we left. Anyway, my vote goes for the Renown.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goody Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I also did not know to nominate a car at the finish. Team #25 in agreement vote for the Renown. This is not to say others were of lesser note.We also think the Brake girls in the Herald should get a endever award. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRIS211083 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 We didn't know about car of the run either. Probably on that bit of paper non of us read!!!! HA HA. Team 91, spitfire 1500. Had alternator seize, exhaust fell off,heater stopped working and could only comfortably drive at 60mph the whole way. Top pair of Guys.Chris.

TedTaylor Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Same for us - we overlooked voting. We thought the performance of the Renown with Dirk, Sean and Hans was absolutely outstanding.Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocita Rosso Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Right ....you have all had a great time and you enjoyed the runNow respect the organisers,so why not each entrant, email the organisers with your selection for Car of The Run, so it does not finish up a half hearted responseI don`t think it should be a thread that that is only giving the response of one or two opinionsA lot of thought goes into this event.....so give a little thought into your nomination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim S Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 All excellent contenders but I'd like to nominate Car 16 for not calling it a day when they realised at Tebay Services that the vibration they were experiencing on the way up to JO'G was the bracket holding the diff in place had snapped. They nursed it down to Lands End where the tied it up with wire and successfully finished the run, how's that for dedication to the event!Car 99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
