sometimes , but i put it down to a few things

- with the LSD fitted the tyre wear is affected
- and generally enjoying a good old spirited drive

Surprised that I'm listed in blue as I don't recall ever having expressed an interest in this particular meet.

Anyway, hope all have a good time.

Cheers guys

The above will be used in the preparation of some name tags like Viv has done in the past, so let me know if I've got it wrong or you will be bringing anyone along. I reserve the right to tinker with the images through.

Hmmm. Buxton, thats about 3 hours drive from Bristol? Not counting how badly screwed I'd get coming round Birmingham. Much as I would love to, I dont think I can get there for 11am.

James, we need to set an earlier start time, because there's always a few/several who turn up late.

Oooops, sorry Calvin. I must have had you confused with SteveA for a moment.

It's normally not too bad a run around Birmingham Mark. A bit slower going through the variable speed limit section but not that bad. Usually takes me about three hours from southern gloucestershire.

Dont mind the drive, but this is a man who struggles to get into the office for 10.30am most days If its a nice sunny day on the morning in question I may just jump in the car and see if I get there.

Convoys!

We really need to sort out convoys to Buxton on the Saturday morning- better sooner than later.

Just post to say the route you'll be following with times etc.

All the best.

Well, I've just done 6 & 1/2 hours driving and it really wasnt that bad, so maybe Buxton isnt out of reach for a day trip.

I feel just fine
