Zeros attract a lot of attention at the Newark Kit Car Show....

At the weekend (22rd & 23rd July) some of the GBS Team were at the Newark Showground for this years Newark Kit Car Show. We had a complete range of Zeros on display and would like to thank GBS Customers Matt Oakley and Ina Hampton for allowing us have their Zeros on display over the weekend along with our new demonstrator which is the Motul Zero Edition, new Zero Race Car and a Mazda Chassis.

As well as the Zeros on display, we also had a sample range of products from Kit Spares and ATR Products on display. Visit our parts website www.kitspares.co.uk to see our full product range, including our dedicated ATR Products page or come and visit our Kit Spare shop. Over the weekend we had a GBS Zero Owners Club area allocated right outside the main hall for you all to park and be together, but unfortunately due to the rain the outside of the show was not very busy, but was nice to see a few Zero park there over the weekend.
