We are very sorry, unfortunately we cannot join-up due to some last
minute commitments for that date.... We'll try to make it happen next time.
Have a nice Hoondriving

Regards out of the snow

Routemaps and infos all printed, you just need to turn up!
For all of you coming from Zürich, the last petrol before the border is at exit Rheinfelden East (connector to Germany is Rheinfelden WEST), at the 1st traffic lights, head into RF, then second lights left, 2 sets of pumps there. D-Petrol is over €1.40/liter 95 octane and it usually goes up by 3cts/litre on Fridays to rip-off the weekenders....
From Luzern drive the extra 2km to Rheinfelden East then the same Autobahn back to RF West to connect to Germany.
DO NOT go through BASEL on the Autobahn, roadworks and blitzer!!!

we'll be in the (rattly) MG ZS180, trying to pursuade a friend with a 355 to come along too, but he hasn't woken it up from hibernation yet frown

Can you give me an idea where you'll be later... making a 9.30/10.00 start from Zug means the babysitter will need to be at my place by 8am, which could be a challenge! Say around 11-11.30?

AS far as I'm concerned all still on. I'll post more at the beginning of April, as I'm away in America from 19 to 30 March.
Is a meet at 9am and depart at 9:30 OK for all coming into Lörrach from CH?or is 9:30 for 10:00am better?
Sadly, I just only saw this post now. What a coincidence though that I'll be in Lörrach on Saturday morning on my way to Freiburg, then Simonswald, sadly, without the Lotus.

If anyone cares to organize another hoon in the blackforrest sometime in Summer, I'll be happy to join. I limit most of my driving down to the black forrest anyway (usually Schauinsland, Kandel, Wehratal, Albtal and Steinatal/Schluchtal), so if anyone is interested, I may be up for it depending on time and weather (from Zurich btw).

Have fun everyone! byebye

Cheers Phil

Mailed you, as I don't want the route to be known beforehand.. (don't want the blitzers set up by anyone reading this!)

Phil, depending on how this goes I might well be prepared to do another in the summer, just keep your eyes open here.
Come and meet us at the meeting point on Saturday whatever!

Also, I intend to do a run to the ring in the summer, once all the mods are bolted onto the car.

Thanks JMGS4!

I'll keep an eye out for you guys. If everything goes well, I'll be arriving in Lörrach somewhere between 9.30 and 10.00 AM on Saturday and will stop by to say hi. Look out for a burgundy-red Citroen... paperbag
