Supercar showdown - beaulieu

[TISPKJ]

Anyone else on here got an invite or going, or is it just for those special customers that ticked the ceramic brake option box

[red_duke]

I'll be there. Supposed to be doing a demo run up the hill too. Ceramics could prove useful!

[TISPKJ]

Ha ha, just trying to wind up a couple of the new boys that don't have the ceramic brakes.
Was unsure on the run, but I may put my name down if feeling brave

[markiii]

Il be there

[breadvan]

I'm going too.

Live just down the road, so not sure yet whether I'll get to Ascot or meet on the way.

[SELON]

Watch how you clean those brakes. Very delicate things.

Pictures are mandatory TISPJK, as well as timings if you are doing fun things like hill climbs.

Have fun!!

Should be fine 😬😬

I'm aware of the demonstration runs at beaulie but from the comments on hill climbs is the pre meet at gurston on again this year?

You are getting Wilton and Beaulieu confused. In past years when the Wilton event was in August they have sometimes gone to Gurston prior to the arrival parade, this year was all change and the event moved to June over 2 days and no prior meet. Beaulieu has a quick start stop demonstration drive, no way a hill climb!

Craig at Lamborghini Pangbourne has organised a meet and convoy to Beaulieu in the past. Not sure about this year though.

Doh, yes blonde moment you are correct

[Clevercurves]

Would be good to organise a convoy down in the morning if anyone feels like meeting somewhere ?

Morning chaps, not sure on exact numbers but I recon must have been 25 mclarens on the run yesterday, impressive sight to say the least.
Typically the heavens opened for the last 15 mins of our drive and then a good hour or more whilst we took cover in the hospiality tent with tea and cake.
Good to meet a few new faces.
Coming round a corner in the pi$$ing rain to be greeted by a heard of cows kind of sticks in the memory.
Sun shone by mid afternoon and I had a great trip back via Goodwood route.

Good run down with a swarm of McLarens on the M3, like a really posh gang of hells angels - the Ascot Chapter!

Did you get any group photos Paul?

[TISPKJ]

Hi, no I have a little go-pro footage but even that is a bit boring ........ Sorry

You fancy joining us on Monday ?

[breadvan]

I can't do this weekend I'm afraid, but we must meet again with good weather / roads / fry up.

I'll keep a look for other events.

Cheers.
