WGood to have met you Paul at the White horse.

I managed to get back home on the cut slicks by driving at 120 leptons and using the aero to hold it all together - occasionally touching 170 to avoid being flashed by any cameras.



Brave man on cut slicks look forward to seeing how you mod the car for track







(Alternatively I drove at 55 and took the back roads )

[jmwram]

thanks to the factory for the hats and a cheque ,i think for next time a pop up gazebo would work as a few others had on there pitches.-john

[tjlees]

+1

Much appreciated and very prompt.

Good quality hats. Are there any polo tee shirts with same logo on to buy?..

[jmwram]

+2 for the polo tee shirts [good logo] also a selection of colours [black with gold for the evolution]

[Storer]

Another thank you to the Factory. Mine arrived today as well.

It has to be worth another attempt, even if it is just for the convoy.

A tent/gazebo and something to sit on would be good even if it is dry.

hi mark well done on getting that video ,the lambo accompanying us is my son dean who followed us all the way,he's a fan of the ultima also,was good to meet you be it only a quick chat before the weather turned bad. maybe next time the conditions will be a bit more sociable.-john [jmwram]

17.30... I see most others also took the opportunity to announce their presence in the tunnel!

Also Mark, I found turning my indicator switch 90 degrees round so up is right made it much easier certainly to put it on. Try it, I was surprised how much more drivablae the car became for such a little tweak!

Yes indeed - a noisy tunnel! That's just before I went the wrong way and had to back up.

I've got used to the indicator switch in that position - but thanks for the suggestion. Easy enough to spin around.

I followed you in.

I had to drop out of the convoy and pop into the BP services to grab some fuel. Judging by the very slow progress you made I am glad I did. We arrived with considerably more gusto (just to catch up, of course)!!

[mt308]

Here is our convoy - I knew I'd seen some people videoing us!

[confusionhunter]

Good spot sir! I think the same gentleman caught us again at the next junction.... I saw his Jag bomb passed and then pull over!

sorry about the delay

[confusionhunter]

Did you put a special filter on to make my car look clean?? consider those pics nabbed
I find it amusing the whole reason that last pic even exists is because Andy needed the loo!!

[V8Dom]

hahaha i thought he was being thoughtful waiting for everyone to get through the gate to lead us all to the pitch ,
