Allan's report says "Geiranger is very spectacular and the Eagle's road which winds its way up out of the fjord was great fun to drive. In the V8, 3rd could be used for most of it with 2nd on the hairpins. No overheating problems. Around 250 cars with 500 crew attended the event. Total V8 participation was about half a dozen, with an even balance between RV8s, Factory V8s and V8 conversions. There were also several other interesting non-MGs taking part such as Healeys, Morgan, Jaguar, BMW and the Volvo repair team." (6.7.09)
