    Who's going from the South, Brighton, worthing, etc.. areas

    As per title just wondering who is going up from the south area.

    My route is A24, A217, to SM1 then back A217, M25, M1 then which ever way the Sat Nav takes me to mallory.

    Who's camping not camping??

    Any one going up on the Sat early AM (like me) and just doing the day??

    I'll be heading that way again buddy. I'll actually wait around and not panic thinking I've missed everyone if you wanna meet us on the saturday morning?

    I've got a camping ticket but I've got a mates birthday that I might have to get back for.

    Sounds good matey, we can arrange times nearer the day, it will prob be me in the Tungy, Chris aka fido's got a gaydar in the gaydar, and Dave in his gorgeous white R5, and poor old JRP will be in hospital after his back op perving at the nurses (the male ones).

    I'm not fussy. I got there fairly early last year and it was foggy and cold
    I'm good for whenever the majority want to go Plus you've got a much longer journey James so whenever you're up and at 'em.

    Track briefing 8.15

    Track open 9.00

    If some peeps were to go Saturday morning and want to be on track does this mean they'd have to be there in time for the briefing? Are they doing any more briefings throughout the morning?

    If you're going on track I think you do have to be there for the briefing.

    The best place to meet up with round here would be Toddington Services, the A505 one is away from the motorway a bit.
    We could leave the services when you hit luton and end up about the same place and have a go slow till we see you?

    I'm never this organised. It feels weird

    • 6:15-6:30 am - Leave Horsham RH13, A24
    • 7 am - A217 to SM1 to pick up Chris aka Fidos got a raider, b
    • 8:30-9am - M1 Give scratcher a call to say coming through to Luton if we miss and are to early meet up with you @ Northampton services as we will no doubt need to strecth our legs.
    • 9-9:30ish meet Spooky @ Northampton Services on Junction 15a M1
    • Attempt to get to Mallory park for 10ish
    For Sat Navs- LE9 7QE
    Mallory Park (Motorsport) Ltd.
    Mallory Park Racing Circuit
    Kirkby Mallory
    Leicestershire
    LE9 7QE

    If anyone needs or wants my number for this convoy let me know and I will give you Chris's number as I will be driving so don't want to get done for using a mobile.

    I can meet you guys at junction 15a on the M1, which is the Northampton Services junction.

    It'll take me an hr to reach that point.

    What sort of time do you fellas reckon you will reach that junction for ?

    Then meeting scratcher Luton area of M1, then we can join yourself, we prob won't get to Luton area until 9ish not sure on how long a drive from Luton to Northampton J15a M1.

    awesome!

    i reckon you're looking at approx 30-45mins from luton to northampton.

    i will get to junction 15a for 9.30ish...the earlier you leave the better i suppose

    i'll probably be on my own too but i think you'll recognise my car...probably beeched on a speed bump

    my moby is 07800 817577, let me know if you guys are delayed or anything etc
