Anyone driving down on Friday and interested in convoying, post your interest in here, along with a rough time that you're planning to leave and we'll see what we can work out

Big problem is we don't really know yet.

I'm keen for early and if you don't mind hanging about at the farm while we faff that would work well.

You'll also need to be OK to drive at 60mph because we'll be towing.

I've got an inverter, that might work

Dropped a new SRI wheel off and tyre with my mate last night, he's going to get it fitted today. That saves the possibility of 3 points

Got some time approved to go and Tax the car tomorrow in Manchester

It's not looking too bad at the minute for the old Corsa to come out and play

Right still can't really give accurate times for a proper meeting point. I'm hoping to get to the farm for 2 so if the people that were on about meeting there still want to come then aim for 2pm, as I said I can't guarantee timings so you may end up waiting round but I can't see us leaving before 2 so that's probably the safest time to aim for but it's upto you, otherwise we'll just see if we come across anyone on the way

Can I meet you at the farm at 2 m8? u2u me the address.


I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
