We'll mostly like head down the A46 and join the M1 for about a mile before the Donnington turn-off....so it might be a very short convoy!

Indeed.

I'm guessing Herr Foggs is intending to take the A46 from Newark to the Leicester Western Bypass, exit onto the A511 and arrive on the M1 at Jnc 22 and thence take the M1 to Jnc 23A for Donnington Park.

What he is questioning is how on earth he can join Stuntman in a convoy as Stuntman will be joining the M1 at Jnc 28 and travelling to Jnc 24.
Terms and conditions apply. This post may go down as well as up. Regulated by the Financial Services Authority. Hard hats to be worn. No reversing without a banksman. No admittance to unauthorized persons. Stop that. Put that down. Leave that alone.

Wrong Herr Truckmeister. I was planning to go A46 / A52 / A453 (round the south of Nottingham) crossing the M1 @ J24.
