I wasn't intending to to be honest, I dont have enough kit for decent coverage, but will certainly get some snaps of it all!

Route sure is confirmed, starts in Runwell at the Toby Carvery (specifics on front page), leaving at 7.30 so I would assume meeting between 7-7.20, as and when people arrive!

Look forward to seeing you! Are you joining the run or going straight to Porsche?

Weather is looking pretty rubbish, hoping the forecast will improve tomorrow.

I'll be there in a V6 exige. Just to say that if you are relying on getting breakfast, or even worse, coffee when you get there, expect some ridiculous queues. I think it took an hour to get a coffee last time! Aiming for 8.30ish arrival.

See you guys there. Forecast isnt looking the best, my ride unfortunately cant make it so i will trundle down to the start point in the golf and if a few people meet there we can make a decision on what to do - ie. Straight up the a12 or take a longer but slower route if the weather is iffy!

I'm gonna give the convoy a miss due to the weather, may poodle up in the barge to have a look later in the morning.
Drive safe all.

Shoot.

Had to bail out in Tiptree as the boy was threatening to paint my dash a not so fetching shade of breakfast.

20 minutes by the side of the road waiting for it but it never came. Discretion being the better part of valour and all that we made for home.

Nice to meet you folks and thanks to the OP for organising the run. Next time he stays at home!!

Hope the turnout at Colchester was good despite the weather.

It was still a pretty good turnout despite the weather. Not as busy as the last one but given the weather that's hardly surprising.

Some lovely machinery including a McLaren 675 LT , Mosler and a genuine AC Cobra

Too bad... was wondering what happened.

Still a good turnout but I think some of the lairier supercars stayed at home smile
Here's some pics of the convoy:

Thats a shame, we did wonder why you turned off! Hope he feels better soon!

Thanks all for coming, shame about the weather and i know the route had a few iffy moments in terms of slow through the villages, but hopefully a bit more fun than the A12!
