I'd like to add my thanks to Jeremy for the run out again .
I thought it was a bit greasy to begin with, early on on the A29 stretch it was a little tail happy on one of the tightening corners. I thought blimey, car-hedge, hedge-car, say hello . I was glad to hear that when I spoke later to the following Noble drive, he thought twice about it too, made me feel better anyway .
Followed the Fezza Daytona through Petworth, however couldn't hear it . Good to see it stretching its legs a bit later though .
Must post some clips up soon

What a fun morning that was !!! Made slightly less relaxing for myself because when we left Midhurst I foolishly found myself as the first TVR behind the nobles !! Once they had gone the wrong way I sort of found myself 'up front' Que frantic scrabbling around in the footwell by the wife to find the directions!! Many apologies for the confusion in Farnham - that one way system was so much fun I felt you should all see it twice!! Nice people and fantastic cars. Thanks to all.

I tried to tell everyone that it's fatal following others - assume noone knows the way.

Especially Nobles.

Glad you enjoyed it - good to have you along.

In a similar vein, don't assume that if a Noble goes round a corner at speed you can too in your Tiv.

it has been said many times but once again well done jeremy for a truly memorable day, this was my 1st time at such a event and I and my 10 year old daughter really really enjoyed ourselves, what was quite funny was the fact that my daughter and i left home at 6.30am and drove for approx 5 hours and when we left Racing green she was expecting the same journey time so when we were home in 30 minutes she could not understand it at all !!!!!!
