Rob Stone was unable to attend. Parts required didn't arrive to rebuild his motor, trashed at the Nostalgia Nationals.

Bob Hancox suffered some problems with his alky injection setup that were traced to the pump, meaning he didn't get any runs in.

The Bulldog Bash is a non-competition, demonstration event for the Outlaw Anglia's, We were scheduled to appear during the twice daily demo sessions, unfortunately rain cut short all but 2 of these:
