* UPDATE GUYS *

Its going to be a 80mile drive from Lymm services.

Im still on for a 6 - 6.15am meet, and a departure of no later than 6.30am.

We should arrive at the track for just after 8am.

Track sign on for the williamsclio members is 7.30 - 8.30 and our briefing is at 8.30 so should be enough time to get there and set up sensibly.

Anyone wanting to come down later here are the travel details.

tis rob, but i want to be there for sign on between 7.30 - 8.30 and the briefing is at 8.30 anyway - so if we set off at half 6 (no later) then a nice drive with no roadworks we should be there for just after 8.

Jeezus ****ing christ. You do know it only takes 45 minutes from Knutsford to Donny don't you? And that's at a steady 80.

I'll bob down later. No way I'm going that early.

It only took us 45 if you remember Rob the other week. Add 15 mins to Lymm services and it'll be an hour tops. We were doing a max of 80 with a few sub 80 bits and those roadworks at Stoke.

Takes me about 40 mins to get to Lymm though I reckon, didn't seem that long last time to e honest to get to Donny

07-10-2005, 08:34
tis rob, but i want to be there before everyone else... in fact I want to be there so early there's no point going. Besides, the earlier we get there the more time we have waiting outside for them to open... in the cold dark winters morning... will be mint - so if we set off at half 6 (no later) then a nice drive with no roadworks we should be there for just after 8 by my calculations... the same ones which I used to get us to FCS... :roll:

yeah good thinking...
