I should be free for the 14th. My rustbucket will hopefully be able to keep pace with the Z, no chance of matching the Impreza type R though!

Top man! I don't think you will have too much trouble, I drive like an old woman!

[burriana]

I am waiting for Saturday to come when all the "sorry my hamster has just died" posts start rolling in.

[burriana]

Of course, if a "here's a spare spot at Le Mans" comes up, I'm outta here!

[Beejayhay]

Certainly up for something like this in future....only one thing lacking for this Sunday....a car Latest update from mechanic today was 'about to start rebuild'.....was hoping to have it back this weekend ...but maybe not
As a heads up.....Yorkshire Modified Car Show is on at Pickering this Sunday...so you might find roads around there quite busy early doors if people go early

These threads always start and end the same :

- Hi, I fancy going for a blast, anyone up for it?
- Me!
- Me!
- Me too!
- Me 3 !
- Me as well!

- OK cool, we have enough numbers to organise something. Right, I've chosen a date, it'll be x as forecast is good and roads will be clear.
- OK! x10

A few days before the run :

- Hi all, everyone still up for Sunday, yes?
- no, can't make it now, I'm washing my hair.
- me too, sorry. Any other day would've been fine though.
- me neither, my gran's cat has died.
- etc etc.

Those organising - just give it up guys! You're completely wasting your time and effort as the SAME thing happens EVERY time. If you want to go for a blast just get in your car and go. I do this myself as I can't be arsed with all the hassle above and I often find myself meeting someone else out for play who I've never seen before.

Yes the above certainly resonates, but in fairness Ive had a fair few decent runs organised on here or through guys Ive met on here. In all honesty the best drives Ive had have been when just 2 or three others turned up....the larger groups just get split up due to the power imbalance.

[giblet]

I've only ever been out on one of the drives before. The group size was spot on and I hung at the back as I was driving a barge with less than adequate brakes. Had a decent mix of cars on that one. I guess it's all about trusting the other drivers as well.

[burriana]

Was that the one that went over Buttertubs with Ben?

[giblet]

Yup, two years back now I think.

[burriana]

In the Jaguar!
