UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Ok guys n gals its officially Dub-Londons birthday come December and we've luckily been going strong with all our meets and cruises. So as a celebration this midnight cruise has been organised to fit the occasion and hopefully a bonanza of an event to end the show season of 2008.

"Road to Hell" Midnight 'Ring run, fancy dress for both drivers and cars is optional but we will be awarding prizes for best dressed drivers and cars, which i'm glad to say has been sponsored by Kam Ice.

Please remember we will be travelling on Britain's busiest Motorway (even in the wee small hours) so make sure anything stuck on you cars will stay on, and that any costumes don't hinder driving.

DETAILS:
Location: Dartford (Thurrock Services: RM16 3BG)
Date: 1st November
Time: 11pm latest

Be fuelled (car and driver/passengers) and ready to go at 12am leave dead on the stroke of Midnight (capes a-flapping Dracula style!).

* PLEASE PRINT A COPY OF THE FOLLOWING DETAILS *

Be aware of the times posted, which are based on the highyway road speeds (Cruisers based on averae 60-70mph speeds). Therefore anyone racing off like a bat should wait at the stops for the cruisers to catch up. So please be aware of times we leave each stop so you know how long to wait OR if to bypass cos your driving tooooooo slow!

30min to: South Mimms Services: EN6 3QQ 35miles : leave 12:40am

30min to: Heston Services (M4): TW5 9NB 33miles : leave 1:20am

30min to: Clackett Lane Services (M25): TN16 2ER : leave 2:00am

45min to: Bluewater DA9 9ST 20 miles : leave 2:50am (only 5min stop)

10min to: Thurrock Services RM16 3BG 10 Miles 10miles.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So it will be about 2hrs 15 on the road, add 10 mins "comfort break" per stop (x3) and 5 minutes @ Bluewater to get everyone left together for the Tunnel run back to Dartford, so allow about it 3hrs all in.

The Bluewater stop will be to marshall all the cars together in one group for one last en-masse push through Dartford Tunnels Please don't race off after Bluewater.

We aim to have the prize presentations at Dartford at the end of the event, and judging will run throughout. However, to win you have to be at the final stop.

Please remember this is not a "race" and the organisers advise you to observe the speed limits and laws of the highway at all times. If people drive lairy then police will only be too glad to stop all of us. Even if not then accidents may occur. Even at the last cruise we set the rules but people were being ignorant towards any instruction and driving like crazy cutting people up and what not, which further other dubbers.

Any problems then just PM me.

Happy hell searching, mwahahhahahahahah.

Are you able to get more stickers, just in case you run out as I can see more than 100 cars turning up.
