 With a new location this year, there was a thought that Cruise Control 08 might not draw as big a crowd as it normally does. How wrong could we be! Every corner of Delamont Country park was packed with the top modified metal from across the country. Club stand, website stand and trade stands jammed all the carparks and ensured a hell of a good day. I had once again used up my last sun vouchers so the weather was awesome, and Im sure it wasnt only me that went home with a sunburnt neck! The banter flowed all day right up into the prize giving with an old datsun taking away the best of stand trophy. The main point of the day was to raise as much money for the Natasha Falls Fund as possible, and again we were not disappointed. Last count when I left the park was approximately £4000, which is a fantastic amount to be collected on only one day. Thanks to everyone that attended and donated to the day, Natashas family very much appreciate it. Photos hereRocko

3 week notice is more than enough notice, just meant we worked at it 247. ok then i agree we will do the next one in 3 1/2 weeks. to be fair i never thought it was gonna be as big as it was, however it worked out well for natasha. great to see ian and natalie posting a message. everyone keep an eye on natashas web site www.natashafalls.com and if any one has any ideas on how to fund raise for natasha im sure they would love to hear from you.
