So far my april calender is clear. Can we firm up a date so I can put it on the calender.

My Vote would be the 9th, The Seat's would be using the lower car park as we do in August. There is still the top car park near the entrance we can use to meet in, and its not that far to walk down to the museum and coffee shop.

I wouldn't worry - that's not our style 8-)

My Saturday will be mapped out as follows...squirt windscreen with washer fluid / water. Sunday, go to Gaydon (optional extra squirt upon leaving M40). Arrive. Drink coffee. DRIVE CAR :P

I was discussing this event with my other half last night and we have agreed that we will be doing one of the cruises, but the other one she is going to stay and chat... :? so if any newbies would like to join in on a cruise, but are worried what it entails or taking their own cars out, then I will have a spare seat (spare 3 actually) but you don't want to spend too much time in the back ones :wink: . I know it won't be a Zed or even an ///M but hopefully you will get an idea of the cruise events..

Hopefully other regulars can maybe do the same and allow a few newer members to join in the fun.. :mrgreen:

Hi spokey check the first post for updated info.

There are two short drives , one before and one after lunch. Phil will be running these.

You also have the option to stay at gaydon for any of the drives if you wish.

Hi Jay,


You have had your organising head on again. I will come down for this one. Your cruises are usually a liitle too far south for me but this one is not too bad.


See you in April.

Don't forget, Gaydon is home to 34miles of Aston Martin test track. At the BMW show last year, a few of us got to take the Z's round the track. I personally got upto speeds of 130-ish and 3 laps of the 4mile track that we were allowed on. Any chance of organising another couple of laps? I think it was the BMWCC that organised the last track time, not sure how we'd go about this.

Anybody have any thoughts?

Correct, AM put a picture of the 'individual' in Straight 6 - what a pillock! Spoiled the fun for all others!

Tony, I seem to remember we did have a little fun though :wink:

Tags,

A good idea for some, but this meet will be more about meeting fellow zedders and experiencing drives together.



Fingers crossed if they do it again for the Annual BMW meet.
