Convoy you :ghey: , its not a race, im only gona be going 75-80mph.
What time do we have to be through the gates to get on the stand?
We can then google map our route to find a rough time then add 1/2 hour or so to our leave time.

I remember the queue to get in took a while last year, guys on the stand might want to arrive around 8:30 as it all kicks off at 9 :)

Well sturge is leaving plym at 6:30
And the speed you drive... conserving your petrol we'll have to leave around 4:00 am :wack:

Atleast if sturge and co stop at exeter... once they have cuddled and filled the S13's radiators back up they will be ready to join up again :D

Channie - Julia is heading up in her crx Saturday mornin. She was going to post up on here but looks like she hasn't had chance. So if you could keep an eye out for a silver crx in need of some tlc give her a beep etc :) Reg is "G** OOD" (dont like posting full regs).
