No problem dude! I can't see why you didn't want them to know about the orgy you'd been invited to anyway... :P

Hope all goes well.

Good to have the board back!

cheers

Looks like being a great turnout!

Weather forecast is for dry day with sunny spells - max 14C so should be a bit better than at Gaydon.

See you all tomorrow!

Shame you didn't do that for the Santa Pod meet, the weight reduction may have helped your time........

Right Steve, I'm a CD changer lighter, plus all the 300 parts and rubbish I was carrying, think I can do it now! Roof bars don't help, I know they weren't fitted, but it's extra weight! Seriously though, I believe James' weight loss for the GLE did work, I mean the seat and spare etc weight a fair amount.

Have to say thanks to Mick for the volvo bits, V3M sticker, and spot on directions that even I could follow, cheers mate!! also a big thank you to will for the type two bits. It was realy good to see everyone and all the lovely 300s. Left early to help a mate who crashed his renault five into a pillar at santa pod, signed on and got a couple of runs in, managed to get a 15.011s quater, trapped @ 92.97 MPH cool!!! could do better as I fluffed the change to second and got a BIT MUCH wheel spin off the line
thanks again to everyone at the meet, looking forward to the next one! :340: :360: 340pw
