After a bit of discussion with a few people at the M3/Bagshot/Guildford/wherever-we-were meet last night, thought I'd see who was interested in a little countryside blast one Sunday...?

Have a nice route planned that I used once before for another car club before I had the TVR. About an hours drive, with a pub stop somewhere, then another hour back round to the start (almost) again. Lots of nice roads involved from what I remember when I did it.


Guess a show of hands to see who's interested, and maybe some dates to throw around for when we can hold it?

I'll start by suggesting Sunday 4th August? Not sure if this clashes with any big events, so let me know if it does!

Good responses so far although a couple of people are away. I thought this would be the case in August. Perhaps I should suggest another date, and we can have a vote. How about we vote on either:

4th August

or

18th August


Perhaps if everyone can reply on which day they are free, and I'll go with the most popular.


Rob, yup - they were my headlights. Thats the only trouble with the Xenon lights, they flash so quickly it looks like a camera flash.. (good for scaring people sometimes - although that wasn't the intention last night! lol).

Can't wait to get the straight-through silencers as it should sound close to that all the time

More votes people! 4th or 18th!


Missed the three-abreast. I did slow down after giving it some stick (well, it felt slower!), but didn't see many of you after that. Had to turn off at the A244 as well...

It will go through some of Sussex.

I plan to start somewhere not far from Mole Valley TVR, and head down into Surrey and Sussex, and then come back up - probably finish near Box Hill or somewhere.

Let's go with the 18th... :-/

It's a bit better for me actually now, as something has come up on the 4th which I wouldn't mind going along to.


I'll print off the route directions and bring them along to give everyone a copy - but hopefully (depending on how many cars turn up) we should be able to manage it in convoy.


Meeting point will be a pub carpark just 100 yards down the road from Mole Valley TVR in Chessington.


I'll post a few more final details nearer the time.

Don't worry - we'll find space There's other carparks around Box Hill anyway, besides Ryka's...

But they do make good burgers...

This sounds do-able to me. Would people not be too tired after the drive to then go karting? Just a thought...

What time do we have to be at Sandown for?
