I agree entirely! I think one every 4 years is far too infreequent. An annual event, even if only a small one, would be a great idea. As regards to the test track, I think it should be awarded a preservation order (like Paul McCartney's house), since it's a spot of enormous interest, and ever growing. BTW It should "only" be a couple of years now until I can afford to buy my very own "silver beasty" (unless the unlikely event of me being awarded a pay rise occurs).
