    I remember taking at least a couple of hours when I did the treasure hunts in the past....perhaps I was taking them too seriously Wink

    Amateur!  I remember taking a lot longer than that about 5 years ago..  If you remember, my son and I got back just after the Grand Prix had finished, after all the food had finished and just in time for the prize giving where we won the booby prize for taking the longest.  Will try to do betterConfused this time.

    Jaz, I was so pleased that you and your daughter won the treasure hunt - well done!!!   I feel sorry for your poor son though!  Sad

    Thanks to Ian, Helen, Harco and every one else who made the event happen...

    Was nice meeting all my old friends from the orignal Newbury Mazda event Cool

    and I had a great time doing the treasure Hunt.

    Already looking forward to the next one.... Big Smile

     Thanks Ian, Helen and Harco

    Excellent event, will be there next year and will try to improve on the poem.....!!!!! Got a year to think what to say.

    Brilliant day, worth the 250 miles travel to get there and back. Hog Roast delicious.

    Well done and see you next year

    What a great day - and I didn't even do the treasure hunt!

    Huge vote of thanks to all those involved in pulling the event together and the staff and (by the looks of it) associated family members of Littlewick Honda / Mazda Service Centre Yes  With special thanks to Ian, Helen and Harco, without whom I doubt this event would have made it back onto the MX5 calendar and to the Planet MX-5 team without whom there wouldn't have been so many oily wrags, grimy hands, but smiling faces around the place Big Smile

    It was fascinating to see just how many cars were being lined up for the other activities beyond the treasure hunt - the alignment bay, dent man and Planet MX-5 tech corner were all busy right throughout the day.

    Well done all - looking forward to next year.

    Thanks to Helen, Ian and Harco  -  It was a great event again - It was my favorite event of the year in the past and was great day again.  My Daughter and I loved it.  After our awful time of 5+ hours when I did it last time with my Son, we were determined to do better this time.  She was over the moon yesterday when we won - she loved the Ian's commentary through the prize as well.  Thanks again everyone.
