I've not even made it home yet, still another hour to go.

Well worth it though, looking forward to seeing the photos and drone footage.

You're more than welcome Debbie, glad you enjoyed it though I'm sure it's a bit slow compared to that GTR lol.

Fantastic day everyone, I really enjoyed myself - Sorry about the drifting Datsun, she's a little tail happy with her 60BHP!

I've put the photos on my Facebook page and will be uploading them to my website tonight.

Can't wait to see more drone footage.. I'm seriously considering buying one now!

Will keep an eye out for the next one locally!

Thanks to Earl for a great meet today!

Great mix of cars and friendly people.

Myself and partner were in the black 350z (smelly, loud exhaust) and will be donating smile

Will defiantly be up for any future meets!

Thanks!
The sound from that 350Z was insane. I was behind you all the way through the Hirwaun section of the run. It sounded absolutely fantastic under load. Pesky sheep though!

Great run out, thanks for organising. Great cars and great people with great weather as well. Sneaky camera van... Hmmm.... Yes....

Please everyone remember to make a small donation to Cacner Research UK Via Matts Just giving page http://www.justgiving.com/drone

You can also send car59 £5 as a text to 70070

You can change the figure to £1, £2, £3, £4, £5 or £10. If you'd like to donate more than £10 please visit http://www.justgiving.com/drone where you can donate any amount you'd like smile

I'm sure like me, most of us would rather give it to a good cause like Cancer Research UK than to the tax man!

The Datsun was hilarious! All I could see in my rear view mirror was the Datsun coming round corners at questionable angles, with James hanging out the side with his camera!
Have to agree with Rickyy here too, the Datsun looked like it was having more fun than most, and I almost shat myself when I thought James was hanging out of the drivers seat to take pics, Didn't realise he'd brought a chauffeur wink

I once again failed to introduce myself to many of you as I was too busy checking out the motors in attendance.
Will try and attend more events/ breakfast meets soon and get to know more of you thumbup


Earl, I've not looked at anything I got from the gopro I had mounted to the car, but you are more than welcome to it if its of use to you for the vid

Paul, your car sounded great. I was in the red R32 infront of you as we left the horse shoe up until Builth, could here your car everytime you booted it and I was infront of you haha. Must say my car was a little twitchy around some of those corners.

im sure it was your car that gave it beans past me when I was filling my car up in the Shell garage in Swansea one sunday morning after work, around 3.30am? Good few weeks ago.

My passenger for the day out is a friend I`ve known since 1981, he is a car nut, especially the Astons as he used to have a V8 Vantage. He recently had cancer and is now in remission so this day meant a great deal to him. He has asked me to give you all a very very big thank you for making it a truly memorable day out, especially the Aston Rapide, it put a huge smile on his face biggrin
