The test run was successful (and absolutely awesome)biggrin

Only slight problem is that the Box hill car park wasn't open early enough.
This being the case I have moved the start point.

Here is a map of the new start point and end point:
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8...

The Start point is the entrance to Denbies Vine Yard. Please don't go under the bridge, we don't want to disturb the residents too much!

The itn file and instructions will be sent out the week before the run.

Oh yes - all this technology is too much for me smile (either that or I should read your notes properly)

I may try and join you as you are starting near enough outside my front door.

Cheers for organising the trial run this morning, had a great drive. Let's just hope the weather is as good next month!

May have to make some modifications to my bumper now, the scraping makes me flinch laugh Looking forward to seeing the photos!

If its that low, good thing you don't live where you did! Is it still as loud as it was this summer?

Yeah, I wouldn't fancy my old commute at this height, though it's only catching on a lip that comes down underneath the front bumper. It's louder now tongue out More supercharger whine as it's now spinning faster, plus I've upgraded the manifold and exhaust.

Well I'm hoping my car doesn't decide to play up and that it doesn't keep cutting power at junctions...

Also, could someone link me on Google Streetview to the meeting point, don't fancy traveling 29mi to get lost!/Anyone coming from anywhere near Haslemere that I could follow? - Thanks

Edited by Waugh-terfall on Saturday 13th March 20:59
I'm leaving from Liss Forest chap, will that do?
Ah brilliant, I could wait at the Devils Punchbowl Carpark on the A3?
Yeah that sounds good. Pm me your mobile number just in case someone gets held up.

Damn George, I'm in Washington DC that week! That would have been perfeck - Denbies is only a few miles away from me, so could have given the MG a nice first run. frown
