is Monday the best day to go??,
You get more runs on the monday (apparently)
Looking at the weather forecast I can't decide whether to go tomorrow or Monday. Was intending tomorrow as never got many runs on a bank holiday Monday in the past.
Tomorrow and mondays weather doesnt look bad round this area
me and a few cars are going monday

Hi Lee, me too, would have been good to give it a blast, but we all did the right thing given the circumstances.
Saw all the police and ambulance just as we were nearly there.
R.I.P. and condolences to his family.
No way! Was it the chevy turbo powered cortina with stupidly wide wheels?
If its the same car then I know the guy, hes from Darlington, hes a proper legend and knows his stuff, he built that car from scratch. :(
