The featured model at Britain on the Green 2018 will be the Triumph TR250, celebrating the 50th year since its introduction in 1968.

 

Participant's Choice honors will be awarded in 25 or more classes of British cars and motorcycles. There will also be a number of special awards including Best Resto-Mod, Best Survivor. Best Display, and of course, Best of Show. Finally, we will have Hagerty Youth Judging in which the next generation of British car drivers picks their favorites.

A very good show, as always. We had 13 Lotus, in two classes - essentially, 'old' Lotus, and Elises. New NoVA Lotus member Shannon Way won 1st place with his CO Elise.

 

For 'classic' Lotus category, it was -

 

1st - Mark Whitaker, blue Elan S4 (another new NoVA Lotus member)

2nd - Bob Collum, Caterham 7 (obviously, he cheated!)

3rd - Tim & Jenn Glahn, white Elan

 

We had a really nice day together - 13 total Lotus on the field, Interesting to note - we had 6 Esprits, only 4 Elises, and no Exiges or Evoras...
