the squiggle Posted May 6, 2008 Author Posted May 6, 2008 Hi there Thanks first of all for your clubs support so far At the outset of this grand plan to celebrate Colins association with Subaru it was the intention of this convoy to replicate the success of the RBRelay from John O'Groats to Lands End, which raised 17k for the RB Foundation. At the begining we had no idea how well Prodrive would respond and never in a million years did we think Prodrive's response would have been on the scale that it has. The original plan for the weekend had the main convoy driving from Lanark to Banbury via the M74, M6, M60, M62, M1, M25 and M40. This original route would have taken up the full Saturday, leaqving Lanark at 10am the convoy was estimated to arrive at Banbury at 8pm. This would have left the full Sunday to accomadate a mass meeting of Subaru owners at the Banbury facilty. In the light of Prodrives response we have amended the route to allow the convoy to get to Banbury for about 4pm and have the main tribute convoy travel between the 2 Prodrive sites on the Sunday. The revised route from Lanark to Prodrive on Sat the 30th of Aug is A70, M74, M6, M5 and M40. I humbly apologise to drivers, clubs and groups that were planning the weekend around the intial route. Hopefully the route change will not stop anyone from attending what is sure to be a fantastic tribute to a true Subaru legend Provisional format for the weekend ......................................... Saturday morning at 10am the cars will leave Lanark Market. M74 - M6 Refuel stop at Charnock Richards on the M6 M6 - M5 - M40 Final destination is Prodrive at Banbury, hopefully arriving at about 4pm ............................................................. Sunday morning, cars from all over Europe will converge on the Banbury facilty for 10am (Marshalls to be on site at 9am) Prodrive will open the SWRT workshops, open the Heritage centre, fire up some of Colins cars and have a BBQ on the go with the obligatory Bacon Butties. The main group will leave Banbury at 12 noon, hopefully led by N1WRC (this is subject to the car being taxed and MOT'ed), and join the M40 at Jct 11 westbound heading for Jct 15. Hopefully we can get the convoy from Point A to Point B in about an hour From 1pm until 5pm the group will be located at Prodrives Warwick test facility Only cars bearing the official sticker will be allowed access to the Test Facilty. A checkpoint will be setup both at the gates of the Warwick facility and where the convoy leaves the A4177 about 2 miles from the gates of the test facilty Prodrive are looking into to arranging some driver demo's and hopefully will be offering Pax rides with Prodrive test drivers on varying disciplines like the skid pan and the adverse handling track. Due to Insurance restrictions only Prodrive employees will be able to take Prodrive cars out on track. All the attendee's at Warwick are to be parked on the main runway of the airfield. Stickers will be made available for sale in the next 7 days ................................................................................ .................

scoobysailor Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 Is anyone else leaving from Lanark but not going all the way down? Due to work I can't go all the way to Banbury but I fancy doing at least the first hundred miles or so - anyone else planning to do the same? I was thinking of maybe taking a more sceanic route back......

superstar_tradesman Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Really want to go to the whole thing but seen as we will have a 1 month old by then the mrs is having none of it. I'll just leave from Lanark with you all to Gretna then split off an come back up the road. Unless I can convince her indoors to let me away for the night. If not anyone else just going part of the way like me?
jcscoob Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 (edited) If not anyone else just going part of the way like me? I think Scoobysailor is doing some thing like that, you(s) should maybe add an extra "part journey" part to the list above ! Edited June 2, 2008 by Jcscoob
