It was a good run at times lots of trafic but I did enjoy the sprints we had and Dave only screemed the once
. That's the cars fault, to slow without the link, hope the P1 performs better.

I now Know how that poor lad felt on the exmoore run . The only reason I had a small outburst was the fact the we were going about a million miles an hour and Chu suddenly started to brake while we were overtaking a Micra . What is even scarier is when Bob drives on the grass to make the tyres a little less grippy
I have driven with Bob on a track and would do so again but, I will never ever ever ever go on the road with him ............... only joking it was an experience I will not forget in a long time .

Don't worry Dave when you do your engine I will take you for a ride in your own car. 
The dragon said she don't screem no matter what I do. Well in the car anyway.

Great meet everyone - the run was fun, although no-one seemed to catch us save for at the lay-by - what happened Mad Bob?????
OK, guess I had home field advantage knowing the route already.
I heard someone had a bit of damage courtesy of a BMW? Hope it wasn't too bad.
The Manor Farm said they had fun, and unlike many hosts in the past, they would be glad to have us back, so I'll probably organise another one in a couple of months. Have to find some different roads though
Congrats to Iain in his Galant who actually kept up - that's what you get for letting a White Van Man loose in a car

Oh, and no-one tell Iain's missus how he damaged the mud flaps, and is that a suspension strut we see sticking through the bonnet mate ?!?!?!?!?!

Nice afternoon had by all. Bob up to his normal tricks then. NEVER let Bob start at the back and NEVER let him lead!!! Or it is pebbledash for you all!!
Steve had a pleasant run home although trying to find super unleaded was a problem. Still getting used to the P1 as it is quite different to my old one. Took it over 4000rpm a FEW times and goes well. Not sure on the tryes though, perhaps need to do an Exmoor run to bed them in!!!
Took all last night trying to get the damm flies off
Regards
Ian
