Finally, could you add your name and meeting point to this post please so we're not so likely to leave anyone behind! If you have any spare room in your cars, could you remember to bring a bit of sunshine with you too please.
Andygtt - meeting point M11/A120 services @ 8:15
sjc - meeting point M11/A120 services @ 8.15 ( is this the one off the big roundabout?)
This is on the opposite side of the M11 to the airport at junction 8. The postcode is on the map and it's called Birchanger Green.

Looking like 9 Nobles and a TVR so far. That could be quite a sight for any spotters en route! I'm tempted to post on 'area' forums so we might get spotted or possible video footage from a bridge etc. Any thoughts on this? Could it just attract some dick heads trying to race?
Let's keep it between us, plenty of footage and pics from the group anyhow :-)

I suspect we're not that popular but why? This is no different to any meetings or events e.g. Goodwood brekkie club meets, silverstone and Brands routes. Why restrict other petrolheads' delight in seeing sports cars. Remember, noble runs are very rare. Socialise it smile

Hmm, not only have we got ourselves a convoy, we've now got ourselves a debate! To be honest, I can't imagine many people wanting to climb out of bed early enough to see us..

Well in truth I don't really care, i just know that I wouldn't personally smile

Its going to be a sedate drive rather that a spirited event anyhow as there are speed cameras for a large part of the journey

Would it be ok for non-Nobility to join at the 8:15 stop please? A friend is kindly giving me a lift to collect my car from Jetstream and see the day. Weather permitting, we'll be in his TVR so could be bringing some music.
Absolutely fine Sam.smile
Thanks very much Steve, looking forward to it.

I am inclined to leave it as is to be honest and play it safe. Average speed cameras on the M11 and a couple of other cameras along the A14 too.

Attached and tested the Go Pro this evening. This is just a 12 second clip of the sound and vision from just by the rear number plate.

We can wear badges with our forum names on. Or post-its on our foreheads.

Too late to think of that now smile Anyway, that's one scenario you could wear it with impunity.
