Re: Z1 attendance at Silverstone Classic ZedFest 21st July
Just a quick update to the number of Z1 cars attending ZedFest in July.
With a little bit of help from "our man on the inside" of the BMWCC and this forum. The unofficial total number of cars has risen to 22 booked and paid, with another 2 still to be confirmed.
