Well that was excellent Thanks to Jeremy for 'organising' it. It was a real pleasure to see and hear cars being driven as they were designed to be driven. I wonder if Mr. Angry from Petworth has calmed down yet

I don't think he liked the engine music I didn't dare put Prodigy on in my car - bad things happen when that album is played

Thanks to Jeremy for organising the run and to racing green for their hospitality a very impressive set up.

Getting out early was well worth it and especially enjoyed the run with the Nobility in the second half.

The loon at Petworth shook his fist at me also...the road angel said i was doing 33mph,,,where as he ignored the Golf in front of me maintaining it's steady 50mph disappearing into the distance.
Hopefully the nurse has him back under sedation until he is allowed out again

Yes, well done to Jeremy for taking on the organisation - I wonder how many cars there were in total - did anyone count?

Thanks to JC once again for organising it.

Great day, and it taught me just a little bit more where the envelope is for the Marcos

Thanks to everyone for coming along - I think I counted 43 cars.

A special mention of thanks to Shadytree who made Alison's morning by letting her passenger with him for the second leg of the run. I'll not thank you though for that fact that she now insists that we have a '9.

A big thank you to Jeremy we had a great if a little slippery to start with

Also thank you to everyone for making myself & Tanya feel so welcome (even though we came from the correct side of the Thames )

It was a pleasure to see all & the machinery...

Shady...traction control at the toll booths on the way over was cheating

Bit different on the way back in the dry
& the less i say about the tunnel the better .......

Just want to add my thanks to Jeremy, Racing Green and everybody who made it such a good run. It was a lot of fun trying to keep up with you guys in my Stylist's Chariot

See you all on Sunday at Virginia Water.

Gruffy

By 'keep up' I obviously mean it takes a little while longer to reach the speed limit in my mode of transport, your honour
