Now I know that there are three of going, me, Daz, and Gezz so far, but who else is going?

The idea is to arrange meeting at the Michael Woods services and convoying up so people dont get lost.

Obviously all the arranging will be done OFF LINE so nobody can find out when the VMax is and the routes taken to get there for obvious reasons.

However, I did see that Bill was trying to go - and Alec you coming up?

Why exactly IS this VMax thing so secret?

My understanding is that you pay to get into this event, held on a private airfield which runs many similar speed events, and is entirely legal and above-board.

T stop spectators from turning up, and the establishment harassing us on the way up

Ensure you email Craig to let him know you'll be happy to go as a spare car - however, I'm sure between us we'll pick you up on the way

Edited to add: 4 new Yokohama A539's going on my spare wheels and going in to get her wishbones and balljoints replaced

Woohoo!

*raises eyebrows* Really???

You've obviously not seen me at full banzai attack mode.

Alec/Daz - please inform Gezz on the level of slip that I spent most of the day at?

Sorry to hear that mate.

Have you let Craig know, and additionally I know that Alec wanted to go so maybe he could take over your space?

Oh arse Gez, hope it works out ok. I was looking forward to seeing the Primula put through its paces.

I have a spare passenger seat if anyone is interested...

Bill, I'll email you my mobile number, and likewise, if you email Daz yours, I'm sure he'll email his back so that we can make sure we all get there right.

Seeing as you've now got to get their early does that mean you are going to meet with Daz and I, and come to brekkie?
