Jeremy - thanks for organising an awesome day. Great route and that Sagaris and the beasting Typhon at Racing Green are simply awesome. You even got the weather right . Now who can we abuse for being the first to turn east onto the M25 and lead us all astray...?

Sorry - I could not make it ..

But hey - I was there at Racing Green on Friday as the picture below will show.



Also - as a bit of a scoop - the SEAC vs Griffith 200 vs Sagoris will be in next month's EVO magazine.

Talking of the Sagoris - did anyone manage to find the petrol filler cap !

Thanks Jeremy! What better way to say hello to friends you haven't seen since last year, and enjoy meeting up with people I've not met before. Delightful morning for a drive too.

They must love you at Racing Green. Bloody dangerous place!

I didn't spot this on the Sagaris, but if it's the same as the Typhon - I guessed it was the device on the side that looked like a recessed grease nipple and about the size of an unleaded fuel nozzle.

Hi All,
Cracking day out!. Well done Jeremy for yet another great route. Steve_T and I saw some of you disappearing onto the M25, turning right(not straight on) in Midhurst and turning left (not right) at The Ship Inn, but shouting and waving has very little effect against all that horse power. All the cars looked amazing, the expressions on the faces of the drivers going the other way was memorable.
Racing Green served up excellent bacon sarnies(as usual). The Sagaris looks better in the flesh but the Typhon is one scary machine.
Photos to follow,
Great to see so many friends again,
Karen

Yup. Was myself & Phil. The smiles were most probably frozen on. My thumbs still feel like they've got frostbite!

Top day.. apart from the M25 revisit!

Another great day, well done.

We had 15+ cars at Clackets for an early start.
It was noted by several people that I looked as rough as a badgers arse,& I have to say I felt
I seem to be burning that candle at both ends & in the middle at the moment.

Couldnt make the pub...how was it?

Hope you got some good pictures.

Now that feeling is coming back to me, I'm uploading the snaps that Phil (Bassfiend) took from today.
No 11 (11.jpg) is a really terrific photo of the angry looking Sagaris !

Great day. Nice to meet so many friendly faces.

Best thing for me was (of course) getting the car back under it's own power having wrung it's neck to within an inch of its life I hope the video from the car behind all the way to Petworth captures mine and Kevin's at full chat

Sorry I couldn't make it to Racing Green and then onto the pub, but I had to be back in Croydon for 11:30 - made it with 1 minute to spare after peeling off onto the A3.

Some of the best roads yet I think, particularly the loop back on ourselves from Midhurst (after we had turned around due to the ncs possie detour!) - chasing Kevin down that beautifully straight road was a joy - hope we didn't scare the *cough* few TVR's we passed on the way.

Thanks again JC - and LB - I'll be around sometime to sneak a preview of the footage
