At the 8 ball

[macky17]

Excellent fun today - thanks for organising it Matt (the bunny killer).

Our convoy seemed to get lost towards the end and I found myself a mile from home facing a 25 mile round trip to the 8 Ball - decided to go home and get on with some jobs. Sorry to be a lightweight.

Special thanks to bobsan, setting a very respectable pace as the lead car in our group - nice job.

[silver surfer]

Thanks to Matt for the organisation and same respect for Bobsan for being a great lead car in our convoy.....shame my SC played up and had to play safe and leave the NSX at Boreham and passengered with the TTRS...great driving VWC, that Z4M is quick!!...all home safe and sound!

[bobsan]

yep, well done Matt, another hidden gem of a route. haven't checked the sat nav, but route seemed to end at the service's we started at, then realised we where 12miles from cafe, must have driven passed it maybe not really sure what happened. anyway....bloody good morning out.

[HVAC MATT]

The end location was my fault. I gave out the itn for a different end location.

Thank you all for coming and Bob for leading the way.

Thanks to Jason who couldn't make the start but joined us for breakfast at the dinner.

[PIGINAWIG]

Cheers Matt and all that attended - good safe run. That Corvette was well piloted and had some serious pace. The 'big' cars had excellent handling around the tight twisties. Impressed! Sorry we lost the little Jag XK140. He'd just rebuilt the engine and was running 3000 revs max.

Enjoying Moto gp and world superbikes on Eurosport now.....

Thank you sir. I was hoping I'd have a chance to chat with you later about your impressions following me.

[JasonSF]

Was great to meet you all. I will be there for the start next time. Black Eluse sounded great!

Sorry fella - we kinda got lost at the end and I had 90 miles to get home, so carried on up the A12. My impressions were:

Did bloody well to keep the sheer width of the thing on the correct side of the road....
Sounds lovely, without being too loud....
In the lower gears, when you change up, it 'squats' down and fks off like a scalded cat....

Oh - the steering wheel appears to be on the wrong side....

I went straight home also so don't worry.

Yes, keeping that fat ass in the correct carriageway can be a little like threading a needle - I could never lead a group - I need oncoming traffic to have panicked, hit the anchors and swerved out of the way before I get there so sitting 5th is perfect

I complained to GM about the wheel - apparently they are all like that in Americaland. Strange.

[PIGINAWIG]

Get ya spanners out lad - 5 minute job to sort.....

Look forward to seeing you out on another run soon.

Cheers.

[macky17]

Likewise. Nice EVO by the way - fully intend to own one eventually.

Swap ya?!

[SuperVM]

Thanks guys, it was a good run despite the Pulsar running like a pig with no legs. I think I need a new set of plugs one cycle colder. Given how the car was running and that I'd told the wife I'd be back slightly earlier than was realistically possible, I decided to head back before the end point.
