I'd actually consider driving out of my way to join the convoy so I'm not driving to the pub on my own (I only live half an hour away :lol:)

What route you guys taking to Wollaston? I could wait en-route.

we'll find out for sure tomorrow, reckon i've ripped my race cat to shreds though because of the massive clouds of black smoke... so it will prob effect my 1/4 mile times (any excuse!)

i'm not sure what to do about the convoy yet, would be good to meet up with you doug but such a msssive convoy cant be missed,

ill probably find you lot before you head in even if i go up with them...you are heading up with captain slow, i mean alex afterall! :lol:

ok, I'll PM you my Mobile number and give me a text when you know whats happening! such a big convoy is a tuffy to miss, but i do like to get there nice and early and its always worked out well for us before!

Indeed, Captain Alex will be convoying with me! Shouldn't miss two shiney red Cars if you do catch us up! :roll:

I've spent quite a while cleaning! 7 hours just on the paint!

oh, and this made me chuckle: :P

Cheers mate, I still love the look of the car, the only thing i'm not happy with is the way the rears are tucked in a little. i should have had my 20mm spacers in time for the show but they sent ouf the wrong ones, so it won't be full fat for the show, just semi skimmed! :P

Thought I'd pop my head in.....I can't join you lot unfortunately as I am not up north this time, like I was last year,
so its not on the 'way' home! And I just can't afford it time wise/money wise or sleep wise!

But have a good un and say hello to the jet car from me!!!

There i've added Joe, and edited the fact that Bryony's car will not be on the stand as shes coming up with Simon in his 'Rocco. Also edited that Chris and Stacey will be coming down in her Polo! And on notice from Doug, old skool member Pettsy should be joining us either in a GT or in G40!
