Well it was worth getting up at 9 and trundling down to Portsmouth for a coffee and a couple of slices of toast.....then bashing back to VW for the BMW meet, then off to Vixpys for a session on the rolling road......who says a 'parrafin' powered 5 has no go.......Robatron has a video of what it can 
Proper day out, thanks guys, who is looking forward to the Wales run? :hehe?

That clip just doesn't do it justice! You need to be there in person to see smoke coming out of my vents, a very angry RS6 owner, a ford galaxy owner reversing away from me down the road and the smell of burnt rubber!

- This weeks totally full but I am around Wednesday day and night...
Awesome morning yesterday guys, thanks very much for the great organisation.
Wiggwam and I have edited together the video he took, so either I'll post it up or he will. Unfortuanately my camera not only went wonky but the camera ran out of battery very early on. I'll try to get the best clips off it.
Can't wait until the next hoon!

Hahaha Shame i couldnt get the RS6 guy looking at us but i was too busy trying to close the windows.. then open them again to get the smoke out...
Need to fig out fow to get rid of some certain things on the clip but once that is figured out i shall post it!!
Great morning i must admit!! So looks like you can do something right Ben...
Oh and i hope catcat wasnt too annoying
Rob kept telling me to shut up 
Love the video Sushi
Its quite funny hearing all the radio chatter that I did without!
Got to get myself a camera - I could get some awesome footage I'm sure (coming around a corner to see a huge cloud of tyre smoke and three cars shooting off through a T-junction for starters)

Simon and I lost the main convoy after about 2 min, but after a brief stop followed the tomtom itinery, so completed the full route and had a spirited mini convoy of our own !!
Andy, top effort with the navigational skills, with my pi$$ poor observation we lost the convoy after about 30 seconds! Top work fella! Great day out yesterday
Thanks to those who organised it. What a good reason to get up at early o'clock on a Sunday. Had great fun 'extending' the 7, I just about managed to keep up with you chaps with a gazillion bhp. 
Some great roads, though I've got to say Surrey County Council need to take some lessons from Sussex on how to surface a road properly for maximum driving pleasure. Think I'd have bounced out of my seat on more than one occasion if it weren't for the 5 point harness.
