London to Briton Run, Sunday the 8th june

[GTRCLIVE]

Any one else going ?

[Captain Chaos]

Yep, I'm going, starting number 79

[Graham66]

What time does it start (from Hyde Park I assume?) and finish? And which cars are taking part? I think it is a bit early in the year for the Vintage brigade isnt it?

Graham, nothing to do on Sunday!

Indeed - that's usually 1st week November, so what is this all about? R...

[Captain Chaos]

It’s a classic (pre- 1979) and sportscar /kitcar run from Brooklands to Brighton, seen off by Stirling Moss.
In the spirit of the veteran car run in November but not perhaps as exclusive.
I’m taking my 1969 Corvette

Oh so does this tie in with the British Sports Car day at Brooklands this Sunday? R...

[Captain Chaos]

You have deduced correctly.

By the way, I see you are into Goodwood - I never miss the Revival Meeting and have been to every single one so far. Nothing better on God's earth than sitting on the running boards of a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, sipping Champagne, listening to D-Type Jags roar past and watching a spitfire doing a nosedive at you all at the same moment.

And of course driving home in a loud V8 engined convertible afterwards (not too much Champagne though)

[GTRCLIVE]

So this means what time are we meeting at Brooklands, and what time does the Cruise start. Have not joined up Officialy as am still not sure weather I may be working, but am trying to get free time up to go.
