baser999 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Is anyone planning to turn out and watch this anywhere on route? It was raised on another thread but seems to have died so assume the answer is no.
prodrive tony Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Sounds good, what times it start? Hyde park is it??
baser999 Posted April 29, 2006 Author Posted April 29, 2006 Believe the cars are parked up on Pall Mall between 1 - 4 then leave for the tunnel between 4 - 6. Someone said about viewing along the M20 rather than go up town but that idea didn't seem to come to much. Looks like we're on a diy basis?
HOL Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Theres some good bridges over the M20, where we could watch. What are the times?
markie Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 We should be on the bridge that takes you into hollingbourne so long as we get back in time[] parking not to much of a problem either[Y]
baser999 Posted April 30, 2006 Author Posted April 30, 2006 Just got back from the West End - missed the concourse , so much traffic and serious parking issues - stood on the corner of Piccadilly and watched the convoy go past. Mercs, Ferraris, Lambos, Noble, McLaren - unfortunately some of the exhausts put ours to shame although no flamers in sight [] If anyone out there wants to stump up £70k we could go next year - although that only covers 2 people it does include all your hotel costs, [ap] and and [D] and no doubt loads of [<)] - cheap for 8, yes 8 days !! Perhaps we could put this on the list of 'to do' things []
Dalthegooner Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 Spent the day up the West End as well. Was a good day out with some quality cars on display. Have a few photos

baser999 Posted May 1, 2006 Author Posted May 1, 2006 Great pics - shame you can't have sound as well to fully appreciate them - I was at the top of St James St as they pulled on to Piccadilly and there was a nice smell of burning clutch as some of them passed ! One of the Ferraris had to be pushed to the side of the road by the plod - teach'em to buy an Italian motor [] Dal, was that your motor just off Piccadily - gold scooby letters on the boot lid ?
Dalthegooner Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 Quote Dal, was that your motor just off Piccadily - gold scooby letters on the boot lid ? Certainly was Barry [Y] And thanks for not mentioning the other stand out point []
baser999 Posted May 1, 2006 Author Posted May 1, 2006 Didn't see anything else wrong - mind you we didn't get up town til the last minute and spent ages going round and round looking for a space - thought it was your motor on one of one laps round the block []
granby Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 Quote Certainly was Barry [Y] And thanks for not mentioning the other stand out point [] Oh yes tell us more [:^)]
baser999 Posted May 1, 2006 Author Posted May 1, 2006 There was another classic round the corner C6 WRX , red I think, although don't think that was that one of ours
Dalthegooner Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 Quote Oh yes tell us more [:^)] Some c*ck in a van decided he liked my lane on the roundabout better than his own [:@] Picked a new wing up from Subaru last week but don't think its gonna be fitted in time for RBMR []
granby Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 Sorry to hear that Dal [] but at least you can drive it [au]
Dalthegooner Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 Quote Sorry to hear that Dal [] but at least you can drive it [au] Yes. It could have been worse if there hadn't been any room for me to try and get out of the way. Bloke was un-insured as well [8o|] And it was not a 'clear cut' incident in the eyes of insurance companies so its easier all round to cough up myself.
