I'm down for silverstone, but some way off joining my friends as I was late putting my name down (on honeymoon)
11am is a good start as I have a 40th birthday the night before, but it's not too far from me and the area is my old stamping ground.....

5.0 V8 Westfield, if I can sort out the intermittent issues with the car not wanting to start until it's good and ready after a run.. I won't put my name down - if I can make it, and it's not pissing it down, I will be there!

Congratulations on your wedding news and Happy birthday for Saturday B.J.W

I will add you on the list but fully understand that because of your choice of car if it's heavy rain you won't be turning up.

Enjoy your Saturday shenanigans

Hello Matt,

However... just now it's says no rain http://www.theweatheroutlook.com/forecast/uk/B90

Keeping positive for no rain... But I shall be there come rain or shine..

Spent an 1hr or two on google maps today and planning a pre run tomorrow.

Thanks for the congratulations - still not quite sunk in yet that I'm a married man!
It's not my birthday - I was 40 back in July. Weather is not looking too bad, and I hope to bring my 6ft 5, 18st co-pilot with me for ballast if it's a bit damp (and he's not still at the party)
looks to be an interesting line up of cars - I miss my RS4 and TVR, so it will be good to see someone else enjoying them. The AMG W124 - an itch I've yet to scratch

one question - the new Costa - is it near the Jaguar garage on the Stratford road?

Ooops.... Belated wishes then... Yeah i can see my error now it's A Birthday Party not My

There is a map on page 1. If you are coming from Shirley high street direction it's past the Honda/Toyota/Audi garages on the right hand side. You will then come to an roundabout and you take the 1st left. (If you went straight over the roundabout then the REGENCY hotel would be on the left) which means you have gone to far.

If you have SAT NAV postcode of B90 4BN. Or go to google maps enter B90 4BN and press satellite image.

Hope that helps you and your giant friend find the way ... regards Jas

Cheers mate; hoping the weather holds out. Enjoyed our little zip through the country back from Shelsey last week, so looking forward to this

[max b]

Quick heads up chaps, the details on the next SS have just gone up, incase anybody fancies a run down in a couple of weeks time :-)

Looking forward to meeting a few local phers.... Thanks for the ss heads up I haven't got on one of them for ages

[S2Mike]

A very interesting variety of wheeled transport, looking forwarrd to this . Weather permitting !!

[Loui]

Sorry I'm not going to get there now as I'm taking the wife to Manchester to meet an old uni pal

[TVRJAS]

Well my weather chart still says no rain so hopefully that does not deter people from bailing out and we kick off this first event with reasonable numbers of exotica.(Or just what you have)

If I was more on the organized side then for those wishing to join me on the convoy drive you would be handed a photocopy of the route plan on your arrival.

Well I have fallen at the first hurdle as I do not have a printer but my logic is telling me that we are all local and should be familiar with the surroundings.

Depending on the interest of the convoy drive we could have quite a large number and keeping all together is pretty much impossible unless we went for a drive up the motorway(Which we're not)

I have been out on the run two times now and it's taking 1hr-35 and today 1hr.55 but heading out of Stratford was heavy going.

I have added a link to the route (Took ages) and hopefully it comes out clear at your end and just have a quick browse.

There is a part after Meer end Rd that we could turn right,but I thought it would be nice to turn left head up to the island and come back on our self's so we get to see and hear the cars in action.

So if you see cars coming the other way don't panic... enjoy the sight.

Looking forward to hopefully a rain free day and meeting up with some local people who share the same interest in cars... Think we're called Piston Heads

Kind regards Jas..

PS My Brother is not a happy bunny as he thought his Refurbished TR6 would be ready ... Alas it's not


Hope it Works

Jas, as much as I would like to come and support the local meet and see the TVRs out, it looks like I'm going to be heading to Silverstone in the morning for SS (tough choice as I do prefer local meets)

I am down for the Jag SS meet in a couple of weeks time and it looks like there are few names that look familiar on the list, so hopefully as a follow onto the the local meet tomorrow there might be a few that might want to convoy down to Gaydon on the 2nd?

Have fun tomorrow chaps
