MAD at the Blackpool model show

Post by tomhugill »

Hey folks ,

This weekend MAD are in attendance modelshow. Have to give the organisers big props for our space and the green carpet. Loads of vendors, decent amount of clubs really fun. Really nice to talk to a crowd more boat focused and got some new members signed up. We will be there tomorrow (24th) so if you're in the area feel free to come see us!

Some pics of the days:

Hi Had a great time today , the big tracked thingy is Georges he bought today , it runs really well its belt drive the tracks are massive full suspension the hull is fibre glass strong and light , have a feeling it could be amphibious with not much work.

A lot of familiar faces, and a nice looking set up what with the green flooring and classy white posts. Looks like you had a good time. :thumbup:
