Seriously though it made her day. Thanks.

Did see you Tony when you flashed your lights, but what with having my friend in the Lotus in front and bro in law behind I didn't see you until it was too late.

Nice car by the way

Cheers Drifting

BTW, when I took the manager of the Forresters out for a spin, he told me it was quicker than any other TVR he'd been in there, just thought I'd rub it in

I'm sure he was dead at the wheel when I passed it.....I hate drivers like this, I don't condone reckless driving and excessive speeding (unless safe and neccessary ) but driving like this just causes more accidents and frustrates other drivers, especially in this heat.....take away their license I say and burn their vehicle

he was dead at the wheel… although maybe the collective sound of our exhausts might have woken him up a bit..

Did sound the nuts though didn't it...your growling S, three ear-splitting Tuscans, a T350 and a 360 Tubi...if I was in front of all that lot there'd be no choice but to pull over, let them all pass and knock one out .....

BTW T, was that you that buzzed past (in the other direction, of course ) on Friday? I think it was the A104 through the forest. I'm not sure, 'cause I didn't really know where I was, just following my nose. Ed will be able to pinpoint it better as I met him about two minutes later.

Could have been.....Thought that was your motor..was probably going too quick to give a heads up...normally do give heads up to TVR's when I see them thinking it's someone I might know...normally ain't so look a tit!!..never mind...

Oh and Pod, do you have to always take it that little bit further chap???? Your mind is filth...bet you thought about me knocking one out too??.......bird shit..not a small one I hope, more like a bloody Ostrich!!!...

It wasn't me it was the car, the bl**dy thing has a mind of it's own, what can ya do!! Plus my Speedo died at 60 or was it 90 so I'm none the wiser I also had some silver thing on my tail I needed to shake

Hi T, nice run we had by the way, albeit that little cheap shot you pulled at the lights.

Edited to say: sorry Re. your wrists Barry, well untill the next meet anyways.

Come on chap, we both know I did you fair and square ..BTW, I think we made a lot of children very happy that afternoon seeing us two going past, especially when we were side by side hogging the lanes

I'll mail you later so we can hook up for a few glasses.

Not by the note of my exhausts you didn't, however I must admit the lane hogging and revving at the lights was cool everyone was just gagging for it, I don't even think they minded us hogging the lanes. I could just imagine what they were all talking about , even the boy racers in the modified whatever’s had to back off
