Could meet you at Strensham services? That's always a good meeting point!

 

[banther]

I'm joining the West Mids lot (from Bristol) would be good to convoy it up to there as well.

​I presume some are going up the M5?

 

[Matt W]

I could also meet you at Strensham services too then, where the M50 joins the M5

 

[banther]

SOunds good mate.

What sort of time? Gonna have to be EARLY.

​NOt sure what time West mids lot are meeting yet

 

[Ryanj]

Sounds good to me

 

[SharkyUK]

I'm still not 100% sure whether or not my car will be ready but, if it makes it in time, I'll tag along too.

 

[Matt W]

Hope it's done! Are you still going if it's not ready?

 

[SharkyUK]

I hope so too, Matt. Fingers crossed!

I wasn't planning on going if the car wasn't ready. I don't have use of our other car that weekend as my girlfriend needs it to get to/from work.

Copied from West Mids convoy

"Time will be 08:45 prompt. I would suggest meeting around 08:30 but we will be leaving at 08:45...so if you are running late, you will have to catch us up on M6 South. Its approximately 1hr 30 mins to Duxford from the Services...so should be there about 15 mins before the start if we dont stop...but we can always stop for loo break or whatever if we have some flexibility in the time we need to get there on time"

If you are joining us...I would ask for one person's mobile so can make sure all is okay or if you're running late, etc.

I found my first chip in powdercoat on my Turinis...tiny, but I know its there.

Depends on who you use and their turnaround as to whether they would be done by 2 weeks tomorrow. City Powdercoating in Birmingham have a 3 day turnaround and are currently £20 a wheel...but its a bit of a trek to drop off and pick up

Nah its not too much of a trek for me as I spend weekends in SOlihull.

More of complications my end as MOT is due on the 20th so I'm juggling when im in the country, when I need tyres on etc haha. NIghtmare.

I'll just have to put up with it

[SharkyUK]

Sadly I won't be making this now. Spoke to BTM earlier tonight and my car, whilst almost back together, won't be mapped in time for CSS. I'll have to wait until next year.

 

[JaredHasNoBrain]

Awhhh
Just have to see it at Llandow if its up and running this time haha

 

[SharkyUK]

No worries mate - it WILL be at Llandow.

 

[msremmert]

Ah this would have been a good laugh! I'm spending the weekend at my mates house in Reading just to break the weekend up a bit and shorten the drive.
Looking forward to meeting lots of you guys though.
