I think this has been touched on before.

There are a few of us coming from Mid Essex [Me, PDR479, Podie?](A12, A127) way, and wondered if there were other that wanted to join us. Podie, are you going?, there was a Cerbie on his first time too, looked on your profile and it stated Essex.

Anyhow, thought I would open a thread rather that hyjack anyother for the topic.

This convoy will be within the NSL of course

Not long now

Hi, yes it's my first time. Really nervous due to reading all the threads and thinking I've bitten off more than I can chew!
Just let us know times and where.
I'm near the Essex show ground between Chelmsford and Braintree.

I'd be up for joining the convoy, I'm in Ipswich but could use the opportunity to stay over in a friends house in Colchester if that's any easier?

But remember, keep the route and meeting place/time to email unless you want some inquisitive traffic car tagging along!

Dave, you'll be fine. The 4.5 Cerbies have been hitting circa 175 on the straight, and you a couple of ways to run off at the end. Craig will give you a debrief, and just have a couple of laps slowly till you feel more confident.

Good idea, once people have a idea who wants to go, final plans to be sent via email.

Scoobyboy, you will have time to max the blue beast out on the day (say 150 ish).

There is always plod on the M1 with his lazer gun on the day, there were 2 last time, so NSL might be a good idea around there.

Decided not to run this time round.. Chim is my only car, and if something went wrong I'd be FUBAR'd as I can't really afford to have it fixed at the moment..!

Maybe next time round.

No problem at all, I think the rear screen on the Ferarri will stay in, hopefully!!!

Yeah, alright.. I missed it first time round ... however, in my defence I have "man flu" so clearly I am nearly on death's door.
