After a great night time blast yesterday ( http://tinyurl.com/7bhto ) and seeing the sun come up this morning at about 4am I got thinking :scratchchin:

Does anyone fancy meeting me at 4am next Saturday morning for a run out before the traffic builds too much?

It is light at that time but the roads are absolutely dead, I went 40 miles and saw 3 cars.

Give me a shout and we can work out a route depending on where folks are coming from.

oops, just posted the reply on the other post by mistake!

A few of us quite often set off at 6-6.30 in the morning and explore the glorious open roads of East Yorks and the North Yorks Moors... faantastic!

However, getting people out at 4am may prove a bit tricky AND, you need to keep it to a maximum of 5 or 6 cars or it gets too tricky to keep together.

Would be up for this but I have a Ride Drive course on Saturday.

Al, who's taking you for the Ride Drive course then? Is it Stuart Grigg?

Not seen you for a while, hope the fezza is proving enjoyable.

Back to thread:

I think I may get some complaints from ALL the neighbours starting the Tuscan up at 4.00am.

But then again, so what

No, not Stuart, can't remember his name.

The Ferrari is still as enjoyable as ever thanks Bryan. The ferry is booked ready for my trip down to Nerja again in August

Your name was actually mentioned on Sunday morning... mainly due a Micra pulling out and trying to hold off a collective of 2 Ferraris, BM, TVR, and Porsche all doing approx 60mph faster than he was... fortunately I know your number plate so you didn't get any undeserved flaming... well, not this time anyway!


Marcus... that would indeed be a damned fine trip... and as Nick from deTagglio was down on Burriana Beach not so long ago, my fingers are firmly crossed for next year's EuroHoon route

It's all the other micra drivers giving me a bad name you know

I would like to come to the next WW if I can get along to it though, last one was good fun even in the snow!

To be honest, I think a few people feel more comfortable having only their own safety to worry about, me included.

I definately put more heart and soul into myu driving when passengerless, only my self to worry about then. I know it's a bit selfish, but I nearly lost a couple of times on sunday and if I hurt anyone else other than myself I'd feel bad.

al- did I or any one else do anything to upset the guy in the yeller porka (martin?michael? i'm crap with names) as he made a quick sharp harp?

I think he was just peed off at having driven all that way, then having the carpark kerb pull a bit of his front spoiler off.

Hopefully it was just a quick fix but I'd have been a bit dejected too I think.

Though by your own admission... possibly 10mph less might be a good idea
