danny85turbo Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Lol, you mean like this? Haha! Yes, so thats all final then!?
stum450n Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Yes mate - confirmed approval from then local police this morning!
robh216 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 A40>A436>M5>A303>A30 Sounds like a plan, what tone do we need to set off to be at exeter services for 8? Could meet at tesco garage near maccy's in witney then head onto the a40?
stum450n Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Sounds like a plan, what tone do we need to set off to be at exeter services for 8? Could meet at tesco garage near maccy's in witney then head onto the a40? I'll already be down there on Saturday so I'll not be joining you on the way down (to Exeter that is) If you allow 2 1/2hr hrs to get to Exeter for 8 you'll want to leave Carterton around 5:30am - that time of day and you're likely to get there in far less than 2 1/2 hours though
broxi Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 I will join Convoy at White House Service Station for those who prefer to Run Optimax, good new's is their is another Services just 5 miles down the road from this one on the Same route that is a shell Garage. Sourton Cross Okehampton EX20 4LY

Sourton Cross Okehampton EX20 4LY Happy to amend the route accordingly if you think it's worth it? I tried to get a station at each stop with optimax or v power (super unleaded at the very least) but my local knowledge gets a bit hazy that far south of Somerset. I'm also told that you're likely to be the best person to lead the convoy through Newquay with Jake on board once we've collected him... You up for it?

stum450n Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 BBC Radio Cornwall will be phoning me for a live discussion about us heading down on the Friday beforehand so lets not disappoint the expectant masses eh and get every scoob we know of down there!!!!
warrior08 Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 I wonder if the OP realised what he was about to unleash with all this?!
GerryH Posted July 2, 2011 Author Posted July 2, 2011 I wonder if the OP realised what he was about to unleash with all this?! Not really. I'm in a state of shock and awe over what you guys are going to achieve here. Stu very kindly offered me a lift down to watch but as I explained, I really can't make it. My neighbour Jane who really started this has managed to sort a few days off work and will be travelling down on Friday for a prime viewing position. I've told Jane she's to take loads of pix and I'll post the good ones with any that you guys post. Actually, I'm surprised that no-one's suggested a diversion to London and take in a tunnel run en-route Or could that be for another time
stum450n Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 I wonder if the OP realised what he was about to unleash with all this?! Lol, don't think anyone thought there would be this much enthusiasm - it's incredible!!!!

I'm also told that you're likely to be the best person to lead the convoy through Newquay with Jake on board once we've collected him... You up for it? For Optimax I am sure it's worth Amending. Unfortunately my RA will not be on the road, probably not even this year. I am sure he would have loved it with the Anti-lag on too. We will only be in the Wife's WRX, and My kids will fill the seat's in the car. My knowledge of Newquay though is slim at best, I have been their once when i was 16. ouch that's 20 years ago. I do feel honored that I was offered to take on the role of leading through Newquay.
jd Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Excellent trun out guys, wish we could be there for this...................antilag
spect Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 I have Launch Control, auto blip and flat shift on mine when in race map, pops and bangs a bit too. Could Jane arrange with the neighnours that they do not get upset if we do a rev up when we arrive? That should tell the little lad that something is happening outside his place - but we do not want to upset them all on a Sunday morning. We will also need room to get all of the cars into the road and probably close it off for a while as we get him on board. Is it a through road? I suppose I better clean the car as well then, lol.
stum450n Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 I'm assuming neighbours have been pre-warned but will double check! It's a close so getting out once we're in may be a little interesting! Lol
