Anyone from the midlands up for a run?
Discussion
Hey Guys
after having a great run with Freewheeler and Greasey in South Wales. - Thanks guys
I'm wondering if any midlands guys would be interested in doing the same?
I personally don't care what car you have as long as you're up for some fun and quick driving...
The weather isn't going to great but I was thinking we could do it quite early on a Sat/Sun (7ish/8ish) that way we get the maximun light and the least traffic and hoepfully the least attention from the boys in blue.
Anyway here are a few pics of our run.....my battery on my camera died

I'd be up for a blast (work commitments dependant) might struggle to keep up mind. Any ideas on routes?
Oh and that GT looks the absolute dogs.
LukeBird...the roads in wales were great fun!!! Oh and that GT looks the absolute dogs.
Gids - The GT isn't mine unfortunately
it belongs to Freewheeler - lucky SOB!!!I have no idea of routes yet...somewhere long and twisty would be prefered by me.
Where you from?
Depending on work, I'm up for it. Driving from London, but should be good fun. In need of a spirited drive before the winter defo sets in 
Sarnie - Anything major..? Hope it wasn't an uninsured scrote... today had a narrow escape on a roundabout near home as another idiot driving a Corsa cut in front of me to exit without signaling...

Sat or Sun..? Agree Sun could be a better choice, but depends on weather, we would know by Tue/Wed how it would look. Any suggested route(s)?
I think if the weather is going to be good next weekend we could do it then?What do you guys think, if not then perhaps the following weekend?
As for routes I'm not great with that, anyone else got any suggestions on this?

but until EOW the weather looks shite (at least for the Birmingham area).http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=0002
Maybe we need to wait until Thursday to get a better feel... hope winter is not defo with us.

Hey Sarnie
Brilliant. How you finding the F430 in comparison?
Would be good to get some footage of the G vs F430
Troesma....wow from London! Cool...Would be great to see you there.
What do you guys prefer Sat or Sun? I think Sun would be quieter?

To be honest I hate the 430. I really do. Its sounds like a diesel transit van in comparison to my G, although my G does have a Tubi and is decatted. I even called the insurance people to come take it away but they only had a Bently contintental convertible to swap it for, so i politely declined. RWD has mean't plenty of sideways moments even when acceralting on a dual carriageway.....not my cup of tea at all.
To be honest Sundays are not good for me as I still hold delusions of being able to play football of a sunday morning.

Hi JamesB32.....would be great to see you there mate 


Hmmmm@ playing football...not sure what to do about that, guess it goes to the majority vote. Lets see what the weather is like before we make any firm decisions.
Definately want to see you there tho....

Lmao @ Diesel transit van, you will upset the Ferrari fraternity with remarks like that! Good lad! (only joking Ferreri guys) To be honest I hate the 430. I really do.

Hey Miyagi, glad to see your organising another. I'm still smiling after our little effort. Wheeler i think we could all do with a little practice
