DC11 Coverage

Recommended Posts

Copied straight from Stanceworks, so hope it makes sense to you all, great to meet you today Syxx.

DC11 was the first show that SW:UK have attended as a community, and whilst some guys arrived later and couldn't get over to our show area the turnout was still fantastic, and half the UK members were still around on other stands if not showing with us.

I was worried this show would be a write off after seeing the weather forecast all week, checking it hourly for the last few days hoping for the sunshine icon to appear next to 'Sunday', but alas it never changed and then after running out in between constant showers on Saturday to get a layer of wax on the car in preparation for it I feared the worst.

Skip to the show and wow, I was speechless at it. A few negative comments floated around after DC10 last year about it being disorganised and generally a mess, today was none of that. Gates opened up at 7am and by the time our convoy arrived at 8.30 half the fields were full, then by 10am the line up to the entrance was immense, endless VWs, BMWs and Audis. Cars overflowing from the fields and parked up on every piece of grass and spare concrete around the airfield.

It was an all round great show. Amazing atmosphere, amazing cars, amazing people. Nearly every corner of the field I walked to there was someone new to talk to that I recognised from an earlier StanceWorks meet or someone I've known online for a while but never met. The cars were on another level too, having never been at a VW show before I was not sure what to expect really but those guys are on another level, every car was flawless.

Enough speak, time for a couple of pictures. Here are a small selection, there are 120+ on Flickr so please take the time to have a look through them. All I can say is I am really pumped for the next show...!

Great show today, you guys missed out. Good to finally meet you Jorge and see your coupe properly.

So many cars there today from all sorts and were done so well. Was good to see all sorts as opposed to just a BM only show.

It was bloody windy though! I took some pics so will upload and add on here, and good photos there Jorge.

Bah, looks like a load of cars with broken suspension to me!

lol!

looks like a good day mate.. some of those cars are awesome! Like the one of the engine bay with almost everything relocated. Fook me that must be a lot of work!!

Some of them are OTT :mellow:

you need an open mind when going to these shows and as Paul pointed out, lots of air ride setups, very few or should I say the brave run coilies to the floor.

Nice!

Some very nicely done cars there! B)

Although have to say im still not a fan of the "so low i've gotta tuck the wheel under the arch" look.. For me the last White Audi Avant has the best stance..

Paul said the E46 who won was some s**t silver M3 on replica wheels with fake AP brakes.....

But yeah, most of the cars were on air ride, not too many ran that low static. It is much cheaper to do it to the VW platforms.
