Right then Chaps, there seems to be a smidgeon of confusion surrounding the trip into Thursdays (15th March) FIA GT3 Series Press Day that we have been invited too.

Who was/is going to meet us at Lamborghini Wycombe ?

As if no one is meeting us there, then we may as well head straight out from the Aylesbury area where a few of us are staying the previous night - rather than battle the Wycombe rush hour traffic.

Currently the plan is to meet at The Holiday Inn (Aylesbury) car park at 7.45am then drive to Lambo Wycombe for about 8.30am then leave there around 9.30am and head down the M40 to Silverstone (where we are meeting the Northern contingent at WRC Technologies)

Please let me know

Spoke to my partner in crime Mandeep:Lambofool and he's not up for going up the night before, he wants to go early early

He made the valid point that to beat the rush hour traffic we'd have to set off after 19:30 so we'd get there at 9-ish so little to be gained. He's also an internetholic and they didn't have broadband so he couldn't breathe That and his incredibly weak ability to say no to drinking all night lol

Because I live at Sevenoaks/Chelsfield J4 of the M25 is it best to meet at WRC up the M40?

Could somebody post the postcodes of the various meet points, so I can work it out ?

No worries Jonny, Carl isnt due in the Aylesbury area till 9pm either - so like you say, not much of a night out (although we would probably of ended up at St James' lappy bar in town until 3am .... which isnt conducive to driving supercars across Bucks the following day!)

LHW is here :
Modena House
Blenheim Road
Cressex Business Park
High Wycombe
Bucks HP12 3RS

I thought the idea of rolling down the M40 in a Lambo convoy would appeal to most, so I think its best we still rock up at LHW for around 8.30-9.30am. LHW is just off the M40 anyway, so not a detour for anyone coming across from the London area.

Agreed ?

Lets meet at the hotel around 7.45am-8.00am then

I know some rather pleasant roads on the back way into Silverstone, so we should have a bit of fun too.

No one else seems to be replying/inputting into this thread, as to when / where they wanted to meet up, so maybe we just all make our own way there and not go to LHW?

No need for a lap dance club the night before, Surely there will be some cheerleaders in the paddock area :-) why do you think Johnny wants to polish his motor!!
