ORIGINAL: tscaptain I reckon those pictures have been messed with! Tom's car looks clean - almost! []  Pity you guys are so far away - would love to have joined you! PS - You don't get that kind of exotica at our local Shell![8D]

The car was filthy just didn't look ti form that distance. Nice and clean now though........ Alex, as ever well organized run out. Rodney great to meet you and to have a run out with a GT3 & a Lotus in addition to Alex's toy. I think we can say recent adjustments to the beast have worked rather nicely [8D]

ORIGINAL: Lancerlot Officially retired this week, guys, so up for some jollity whenever. However Mrs. W appears to have a long list................seemingly getting bigger by the hour.

So any excuse to get away, really. Regards, Clive

I am too semi-retired so up for a run out most days of the week, as long as no ice.

A few 997 locals on a very enjoyable drive out this morning...

Started in Oxford, ended just south of Henley upon Thames. I don't think the backside of my car has ever been so muddy! Thanks to Simon, Nick, Mike, Jon and Roger for tagging along in the wet

You will have to ask Gary about mud sometime [] (Found the pic on the Booze Cruise thread):

 

[Clewsey]

Alex - thanks for a great run today, another well organised run. Even though the weather was typically British, I thoroughly enjoyed myself nevertheless. My car looks shocking now, mud everywhere... What made it even better was to spend half of the run behind Mike's GT3 that gradually changed colour from white to brown thanks to the muddy roads [] Nice to see everyone again (not including the cyclists and runner). Cheers, Simon

 

[spook]

Yes, many thanks Alex, another great outing. Sorry if I held up the proceedings up the old A40, but with rivers of water across the road around each corner, on this my maiden trip I was having to learning the parameters of the grip, getting used to two wheel drive, semi race tyres and all that. Anyway, apart from a filthy car, I thoroughly enjoyed it and made it back to the R10 meet just in time. [] See you soon guys, Regards, Mike. 997 GT3 gen 2 Carrara white underneath the mud! Cayenne Diesel gen2 Meteor Grey

 

[mnk303]

Pity I live a long way from you chaps would like to have joined you

 

[okellyt]

What about next Satruday??????

 

[lowndes]

Many thanks Alex. Good to catch up with a few familiar faces on a distinctly ordinary morning weatherwise. Mike I though you did amazingly well to avoid becoming incorporated in the scenery. Even with more acronyms than you can shake a stick at it and everything switched on it was still squirrely at times. Cheers Nick ps photos needed a bit more colour....anyone got a red car?

There will be plenty of colour down here in a few weeks Nick.............[]

Sat 19th March hey? I suppose I could be persuaded to run the NBR route. Two reservations though: Sunday mornings are usually quieter + would need a pass from the Mrs. Perhaps if they meet us for lunch I could get away with it. Anyone else free on Sat? ...at least the weather is meant to be good that day

Rain-check on this Tom. Nobody else can make it and I have the Mrs wanting to do something else tomorrow morning anyway.
