Well, I'll be there, maybe with the gf if she's up for it. Is it just a case of meeting there or is there a convoy going from somewhere? I'm in Kent if anyone else is travelling up too...

erm well it depends whos in the convoy to be honest.
the first time it was me, doug and Dino so we all did about 80ish and the next time we had Ollie there and i think we all did about 80ish aswell!

for E38 we all had to keep up with Modified Madness :lol: and we had a five car convoy!

i think we'd need to meet at Toddington Services at around 6.45am to then get to our usual meeting point in Wollaston (at the pub) for around 7.45am and then convoy into Santa Pod for the opening time at around 8!

thats about right isn't it Ollie?

If I went I'd skidaddle up the M5 i guess?

I'd love to drive lum there at an average of 80mph but it would probably cost me roughly 1 million pounds :?
