Thats the problem 6-7 months isn't enough time to plan a show of the size this one was expected to be. Planning for Causeway Coast Ford Fair 2015 started about a week after this years. Thats for a show that has been well established and has had all the ground work, contacts etc in place for the past 10 years

www.oureventsni.com gone...she sure must be running scared
Right Ok lol. When i was talking about a crappy event I meant the Ards one. The Long Kesh festival of speed looked brilliant.

Same goes for my brother and the Bangor Elim show, he starts organising the following years show pretty much as soon as the punters leave.
I thought it was. But there was some slabbering done in here about it.
In case you haven't seen it - She quite clearly lives in coocoo land

The website and Facebook page have been deleted. How are people meant to complain or get money back? Total scam!!
Her address is all over the net, she should have handled this better as it's likely some header will land at her doorstep lol
It wouldn't be the end of the world if dealers didn't show up but the part which annoys me most is, clubs like RMS and various other big names offered to put a stand on.
But no, they instead set up a dark room full of many non related 'Motor show' stands and use an outdoor gravel area full of nails and other tyre killers and put about 20 cars in any are where Dubshed had 3 or 4 times the amount.
Thank fook I didnt have to pay for tickets.

Top tip, before resurrecting something find out what killed it first

Chatting to a buddy on facebook, he just got a call from Frank Mitchell, apparently U105 will be covering the debacle in the morning too

Do you think though she would actually have made any money after paying for the Kings Hall, Insurance, Advertising, Tickets etc?? It could maybe just Bankrupt her if its gone really wrong. I know a friend of mine organised the Paddy Rally and it was a great successful day but still cost him big £££ in the end to do it.
Not a nice situation for anyone involved but simply disappearing isnt the answer. If she had publicly replied and admitted she got it wrong most people would probably have left it at that. Id say a fair few wont drop this and chase her up....

@swantsy we usually do a 50/50 on clean paintwork but the point of the car was to also demonstrate the ability of 50cals products on a car that hadn't been washed since December. The paintwork was fantastic until every **** and their dog insisted in rubbing their hands all over the car covering it in light scratches again. Actually couldn't believe it when I saw a mum letting her child attempt to write in the dirt on the dirty side!!
Another reason for the half dirty as opposed to all clean is we were simply tackling a different market that 90% of people in attendance don't understand or appreciate the swirls etc so making a visual impact had to come from a different approach
