A recent great trip to France with the Surrey TVR resulted in a few of use climbing the 200 step tower at the Castellane Champage House to fly the Piston Head Flag.

Here are a few photos, but more can be found at:

www.tvrcc-surrey.co.uk

Select Past Events off the menu and the trip and photos are on the first Icon.

Not when I was at the bottom of the tower, but she was sitting on the edge when I ran back up again.

had a word with Nicole about her sitting on the ledge.

Her reply was "well really... if you'd drop it down a gear more often perhaps we wouldn't be at the back of the group"

Not really sure what she meant... answers on a post card.

When we got to the last peage, Nicole waved and using her fingers suggested that N had hit 140. I could have it wrong and she might have been giving me betting odds (John Macrurick style)
Karen

Edited to say that the max I saw on the way back was mostly PEPSI.

Simpo - Very impressive...

Trinity - if you want to do proper Iceman & Maverick style fly pasts .. then you will need a sports exhaust.

Your car was so quiet !

Pump up the volume

I'm going to try and get hold of some walkie talkies for in car entertainment on future convoys. We used John and Tracy's on our journey home from Le Mans. The only problem is that everyone starts talking like Murray Walker or Alan Partridge (back of the net!).
Karen
Love the photos, must get bigger flags!.

It's all relative Rev - most things are quiet compared to a SEAC.
