Hopefully I'll be at Lowestoft in time to see them leave!

Anyone else doing this on the Saturday night?

The Lotus guys and myself will be starting on the Sunday 21st to avoid the druids at Stonehenge.

simba0869, did you do it last year in a black XKR?

We were in my daughter's grey MX5 ND last year.

This year, we're in my Mk3 Audi TT Quattro, which has a bit more legroom for me.

No lunar grey XKR

I'll keep an eye out for you at the start. We're in a white Audi TT.

We'll be making another video of the run.

Barney from Proving Autos on YouTube is doing the run too but he says he won't be making a video this time, intending to concentrate on doing the run.

Here's our video from last year.

And here's Barney's.

And here's an unsuccessful run from Turbo Tim's World, which is the best example on YouTube that shows the chaotic start at Land's End. The start is between 6:30 and 9:45.
