It’s a been a little while since we had Thames Valley hoon driving and July is looking very busy so how about a run out this weekend.
I know its short notice but nothing like having a good blast plus the weather looking good. bounce
Early start at 7am drive and finish with a nice good cooked breakfast and all done by 10am coffee
We could well be meeting around the Reading area taking in some nice quiet countryside around Berkshire and Oxfordshire with some nice twisty bits, I’m with a few favourite roads will be in and a couple of new interesting routes. biglaugh

But you name if you interest and email me for details.

Can I come along? Don't think I have a recorder for the camera though, so it'll have to be stills only frown

That's what I was thinking - it is theoretically possible, and will work as long as ive got the right cables. Do you know what make/model it is so I can check what I need to connect it?

Cheers smile

Hi Nathan,

I'll try and make this one, but have a family party to attend, so not sure how the timings are going to work yet...

PS - rudeboy350Z/babyCTR (what's that all about!!!wink) - You're a brave man to risk incurring the wrath of my sister by turning up late to the party too!!! (Or have you managed to get out of going?!?!?)bow

Looking doubtful for me too Nathan as 1) the cars in having some extra horses fitted wink and 2) I'm off to Thruxton on Sunday. Would be interested in seeing the details tho so if you can pm me with the route/times etc and the cars sorted in time, I'll try and fit it in to my plans.

I am now the artist formerly known as Rudeboy350z - BabyCTR is a play on words - 'babysitter', I had a little chuckle to myself when I came up with it - sounds gay but hey.......!!

Party??? Del Amitri and 'always the last to know' springs to mind. Nathan - i'll be there.

...........Starts at 12.30 - so no chance as even though the hoon will finish at 11, and even though the 'party' is just down the road from him at Wellington Park........he still has to do his hairsmile;)
