So Sunday morning, Oh the suns still shining woohoo Crused down to Goodwood, met Zed and friends for breakfast in the Aero club, then after walking round the pit area and looking at the Cobra replicas we went for a drive towards Portsmouth. Have to clean the car though, some bloody horse decided to loose a bit of weight, leaving a rather large pile in the middle of the highway! Was good to meet fellow PH members too thumbup Loved the Lambos cool

I thought you went to Goodwood?? biggrin

Looks like you had a good day, going to have to tag along on one of these at some point, (just too darn busy at the moment)

Only two Viper as no one prompted a meet, next time you can always post who knows others may want to go with you.

Tis true, I ended up at Newlands Corner car park going for a walk along the Surrey Hills when I could have been down at Goodwood...

!!! I stoped in the car park at the bottom of newlands cnr to strech my legs and let the Viper cool down for a bit on my way back from Portsmouth after Goodwood!!! I had planed to go on to The Grasshopper PH at Westerham which is where the Kent section of the Cobra Rep club meet Last sunday of the month, however the time was about 2ock and they normally meet at midday, so ended up going home.

Check your email wink

hehe brain was still in driving mode. Better leave Silverstone alone for this year now.

Sorry Paul and Ginj. There were a few phone calls to local Vipers (few down here), but people were busy or 'not in the mood'.

Are there any other dorset/ hampshire/wiltshire viper/owners out there that have maybe only read and never joined us here on PH?

Keep an eye on the regional forums. Find the all marques meets that come up on the South Coast/ South West/ Thames Valley/ London/ London Tunnelers forums the most interesting.

tip off for another run this sunday:

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

email through profile to Turbofun:

"The details are ready so please email me through PH and I will reply with Map, Directions and itn. file"


"The planned route is very twisty but lots of fun Starts near Guildford and ends near Portsmouth for a nice full cooked breakie
Can I suggest that you might borrow and bring along TomTom and a PMR / walkie Talkie radio but it's not essential.
I will send out directions/map and TomTom file (itn.) in the next couple days, so if you please email me via PH and I will return with the details."

0630 start though
