Hi all

Just to let you know I will be setting off tomorrow morning to London. Full details are available on www.gumball3000.com, go to news and you can see were we set off from. All are welcome (we need the support, there are some mean machines going).

And just in case you feel generous, please look at the following site. It is for Yorkshire Cancer Research, a worthy cause that I am sure has touched many of you in the past.

I got a mate who is a damned good driver. Took him on a trackday to test the car. He was very gentle with her and smooth and has an enormous respect for the machinery and performance. I feel very safe when he is behind the wheel.
I have been driving Nobles in one shape or form for about 9 months now, and he showed me a thing or two, very impressed.

Good luck, hope you can show everyone how brilliant Nobles are - are there 2 going?

2 Nobles, an lovely M12 GTO3R and me in M400.

I think between us we should be able to make a damned good effort.

Dan

I will make sure you see me. I will be at the car at 4pm.

Hope to see you there.

Just bear in mind that I will be charging for autographs.

All this fame and it has not gone to my head. (honest)
