Yes tony and I "doctored" his exhaust a few weeks back. Gave me a serious headache running it in the workshop!

No, I think they are wrong - a video posted by the ~Berkshire group showed workmen finishing placing the barriers there at 6.40 am.
It would be interesting if any of you live in that part of London if someone could pop down into Westferry Circus today or tomorrow and see if the works are still going on. If they are, then we are worrying about nothing. If it is clear again, then I suspect it was done for us.....
Looked to me they were in the process of removing them as we went through, the inner circle ones were being tipped up to remove the water ballast.

That's what I thought, Cyclist would have gone through a few hours earlier.

Not the way I was expecting to end my second TiTT but hopefully the one and only time I will need a low loader to get home. So gutted. Perfect weather conditions and a great collection of fantastic sounding TVR's and of course Stu's Chevvy. Hope the rest of the day was as much fun.
Snap. Sorry to hear you day ended like mine!

I only hope you didn't have a four hour wait for the AA low loader! Got the Sag into Austec today and so hopefully back in circulation in a day or two. Those AP racing clutches and the Raceproved Cylinder are the best part of a grand alone so it was an expensive mishap. Hope your problem was easily resolved.

Qbee, many thanks for organising a great run out. The directions were great, but getting lost following others is all part of the fun! I was one of the lemmings that did the rotherhithe tunel twice and a quick trip to china town getmecoat

Nicecupoftea, was good to meet you and to put a face to the name. Hopefully see you at some other meets.

While waiting to enter canary warf, the girlfriend tempted fate by commenting on the poor luck of the griff requiring a push start. Karma came round quickly as her seat belt inertia reel wouldnt release, only get tighter. Slvrcrb, thanks for the tools to suitably butcher it so she didnt have to catch the train home. Spent yesterday, re-collecting a tool kit for the boot, hopefuly once its there again it wont be needed! The video of my v8s looks great too, as we were behind you for a while we thought you might have got a bit bored of only seeing us wink

And finaly to the bloke at the O2 who took a look at the underside of my black v8s then while walking away shouted across to your mate "its a fking new car underneath!" you made my day thumbup
