I can't make the 22nd. Don't let that affect your planning though, I wouldn't be 100% sure to come anyway.

Sorry Gavin...we'll take pics for you, though! I'm game...although I probably won't be in a 300.

cheers

Brooklands is a fantastic day out. I went there last year and was rather sceptical before arriving thinking that it'd be another half-arsed attempt at parting me with my money. I couldn't have been more wrong. The motoring part is absolutely riveting and the aero part even more so. We (the Mrs, son and heir and I) arrived mid morning (11ish IIRC) and got thrown out at 5.30pm when they shut and had seen about all bar one hangar and the outside aero park. Even the canteen served good food and it was fairly priced.

Hmm, maybe you could add the 15th to the poll? Might be able to make that.

Guess I've left it a bit late ...

Theres not a snowflakes chance I can make the 15th though, and changing the date now does seem counter productive when most have had it booked in their diaries!

Sorry guys, 22nd it'll stay.

Has anyone told Tbricks?

That's OK, I kind of realised it was a futile attempt ;-) A V3M meet down south, a week after I'm in the UK and I start getting a bit jittery ;-) But I wouldn't have had a 300-series to show off anyway.

Have a good time and take lots of pics!
