Not a bad day but the same snobbery from the English classic car crowd. Had the same shit at the same event last year too. Today the snob was the owner of the Triumph TC 2500. Dug himself a hole bad mouthing the Challenger until he realized he was talking to the owner.

Yup, agree, this sort in-fighting prevents a united front that will allow the green movement and any government (irrespective of your political views) to legislate and tax us off the road.
There are cars out there that I just don't get, but I don't go sharing my views when I see them at shows.

As i said at Hayling,,,,,(COMMON INTEREST UN-COMMON CARS) this is what brings us together

well said - It's what 'should' bring us together, but it's unfortunate that I keep stumbling across evidence of the division.

I bet it would be a different story if he was on the roadside broken and you stopped to assist him

Hello. Apologies for the wrong impression created. I thought your Challenger was awesome, and I listened and learned about the Fiero. No snobbery here, just praying for continuing miracles to keep mine going. Loved the variety on this day. Will happily buy you a pint if by good fortune we meet there again. Mark with the TC.

Water under the bridge Mark. Shame the show didn’t go ahead this year, we were both looking forward to it.
Maybe meet up with you at drive it day (Sept?) or another event?

Could 'Scat' be as in Scat Man John, he made some catchy tunes.
Also 'Scat' has another meaning, Sexual practices involving s**t

So by saying "your scat shines just as good" it conjures up some weird pictures. lol

Good picture of the Fiero.
