Indeed it is - it includes the (in)famous Wareside straight - which ends with a very tight 2nd gear s bend - and the state of the wall there indicates how many vehicles get it wrong.

There may also be, allegedly, an informal competition between Hadham residents to see how fast cars can get up to along there before safely negotiating that bend. I know of people which have seen 135 - it may or may not have been a Lambo Gallardo or so I am told eek

Jesus. Don't remember that stretch, but I'll keep an eye out. I have noticed a number of very nice cars around there (saw a Testarossa last time). More worryingly, I've also seen a police car sat there a few times - just here...

There's a few nice cars around here - just in the village here there are a large number of 911s, two of the new Maser Coupes, Gallardo, Murcielago, a handful of Ferraris, an RS6, AMGs, etc mostly driven by old folk very slowly... rolleyes

There are however a couple of nutters live in/around the village who drive like utter morons and who to my knowledge have been involved in a number of offs - one in an Orange Focus ST who seems to want to prove to EVERYONE that his car is indeed the fastest thing on the road - dangerous in the extreme. The other is a charver in a Saxo VTR who just can't drive to save his life!

I know that bend well, and yes, there are a coupe of BiB cars often parked up at various points along that Ware Road. BTW - extremely lovely TVR - that yours? Have a very soft spot for the S!

And hello to all Wellwyn dwellers!

Yep, there's a cross roads just up from there on the other side of the road that they seem to like too. In fairness, neither are particularly quick parts of the route I suppose.

Thanks, that is indeed my S3. I'd highly recommend 'em - spent the past few weeks looking at Griffiths and Chimeras and decided to stay with my humble V6 S as it's such good fun.
