I'm over in Oz so will be unable to make it, but will definately be there in spirit!!
As an ex-TVR owner and in a years time a TVR owner once again my thoughts are with all the guys and girls at the factory!
Look forward to seeing the pics from the day!
Well Done to Dave for making the day a reality, gutted I can't be there!!

I'm glad to tell everyone that Martin Lilley will be joining us on Friday, I didn't have to ask him...he was planning to come along away.

Martin owned TVR from 1965 to 1981, and under his custodianship the M Series and Tasmins were created.

P.S. 40 Union Jack Flags arrived this morning...very discrete 5" x 7" on a 15" wooden stick...So give some thought on how you will attach them to your cars and bring any tape/bluetack etc. required...Weather forecast is dry ... so tops should be off (the cars of course)

That is superb news..........WELL DONE, Mr Lilley your support is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!

On a personal note, it was the 3000M that got me lusting after the TVR marque from the age of 10. Hope I get the chance to meet him, it will be a great honour for me.

Not only will the weather be dry, its an improving forecast so we should get a bit of sun aswell!!.

Oh my god, I think I've created a monster , although it was Gemini who originally suggested the rally, I just put a date on it and ran with it from there. I've also had a lot of help from the good guys in the Blackpool region.

Pistolar, that is a fantastic gesture. Thank you very much clap

Can you mail me (through my profile) with more details of your order so that I can make sure they deliver.

Add another one to that list.

I don't know the area so why do the detour via Lytham rather than follow the road from the end of the M55 ?

Following the road from the M55 is the quickest way. The only problem is that when you reach the sea front you will have to turn left to Pontins. You will then have to do a U turn on the busy road in order to face North. I suggested coming in from the Lytham end in order to reduce any risks.

Its great that you can make it. Thank you. I'll put you on the list.

Dave.
