The Rover P6 Club Display 2010

Billy's 3500S Racing P6 Our display consisted of 10 cars including two NADA's and a bright yellow racing 3500S (fitted with a custom built 4 lt engine) which proved very attractive to the younger generation. Billy the owner, sent special thanks to Pirrelli and Demon Tweaks.  The yellow 4lt racer also proved an attraction for a certain young lady in a wheel chair, who has been promised a ride around the track in March 2011, when the car is next out on a track day.

In the meantime mom and dad got the chance to have a look around the rest of display. (Mom says she wants a NADA 3500S!) 

At the end of the event, everyone involved the Rover P6 Club display said they had enjoyed themselves so much that they were already looking forward to the 2011 event when they wanted to be a part of it all over again. Anyway that said the record books have yet again been rewritten with 16 P6's on display at the event and 13 of them belong to RP6C members.
