I'd be there (presuming my car is on the road again) but I'm doing the Sheffield Half Marathon that day.

Keep me posted about more runs though! It's the thought of driving the Peak District in it that's keeping my motivation going.

Hi there - do we stop for lunch or just bring sarnies?

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Howard

[bill hulme]

Both we have a one hour hand brake for brunch:p

[chief44]

I'm really looking forward to having another day out tomorrow and putting more faces to names. I've just given the car a quick scrub-up, although the two hour drive to Macclesfield ought to undo the effort!

[bill hulme]

Bill.

[Joy Toy Boy]

On my doorstep, yes please . Put me on the list Bill.

[Lee Haslam]

I'm tempted but not sure I trust the car enough at the moment as I'm still running the new engine in.

How far is the route altogether?

[mk1 dal]

hi lee , its around 140 miles full of twisty roads but it shouldn't be a problem for your engine ,you will be on tick over compared to us using mere 4age power plants . how many miles have you done testing it already .

[Lee Haslam]

I've done 300 miles so far but longest single journey has been 25 miles. Still on mineral oil and only using 0.5 bar boost at the moment.

[mk1 dal]

it should be alright lee ,were only going steady today . there are 2 more 1.5 conversions going on the run , these should sound brilliant going through the tunnel .

[mk1 dal]

hi all who,s attending the run , is anybody recording the run on video :?:

[chief44]

I'll be attempting to record some bits gary

[mk1 dal]

I'll be attempting to record some bits gary

[Lee Haslam]

it should be alright lee ,were only going steady today . there are 2 more 1.5 conversions going on the run , these should sound brilliant going through the tunnel .

I'm just about to change the oil on my car and then should be good to go. Weather is crap though!

[chief44]

Yup, that one's for you Howard!
Just waiting for this video to export and I'll wap it on here.

[chief44]

Here go. I didn't manage to capture as much of the angry cyclist as I would have liked, but you get the idea! That tunnel was excellent too. Wish I'd given it a bit more beans though.

I have just see it with no trouble well done Ben.
Bill.

[coverco]

Great video, but the title says MR2 OC !!!! If it was the OC everyone would be driving Probes :-)

[chief44]

Not sure why you're not seeing it Howard, that's annoying.
Glad you chaps like it. Ah yes, naming libraries with 'MR2 OC' is just for my own reference, a bad habit!

[HowardB]

Excellent - I can see it fine now(?!).

[Lakelad]

Another great day out - 340 miles door to door!

Great to see everybody and a big thanks to Gary for taking the lead and to Bill for getting us all organised.

Just up-loading some video clips which I will post later.
