yes, yes it is.
Not at all, welcome on board.
I would have said about 50 miles tops-ish, maybe.
Ill have to check on closures etc, but if there is a few closures then i will move the start point to a different set of lanes. I wouldnt worry about too much juice, im not a speed freak and your not going to need anything other than a tickle to get round the lanes i have in mind. :lol:i live in birmingham i want some decent lanes n some nice views i wanna be able
to test my disco out abit if possiblei dnt have a time limit either

Have a decent run starting near Telford that should both give you the views and vehicle test you want. Does your car have any mods and what experience do you have? Not being a nosey #### but this info would also help in route plan, as lanes can vary from "lames" (excuse the pun) to axle busters. Also are you worried about minor car paintwork "damage"

Took some lads off this site out down these lanes a few weeks ago who all seemed to enjoy themselves. It may be an advantage to bring along a pal to be gate monkey if possible.

BGB has posted previously about where and when but the gist of it is sept 1st, 8.30 for a 9.00 start at j11 of the m42.

Yes sorry about that. I went through the thread. Thought you had only just organised thus.
I see you have 6 vehicles all ready so you have got enough unless your taking more than one group.
If so I would like to come. I have a fully modified freebie that has been up pheasant pen steps in Wales and across Corwyn car wash.
If you have room let me know.

Slight change of plan Peter. Have been advised to stay away from roads originally planned for route due to festival traffic so have made a new route (you will be on lanes within 20mins from meet point). Also it looks like there may only be 2 vehicles as my mates are all having car problems. Meet at 9am on The Pie Factory pub car park in Hurst Lane, Tipton. DY49AB. Have up to 20 lanes planned. We'll see how many you want to do. Please let me know if you have any problems or issues. If you pm me I will get it straight away on my phone.
coolio so its jus our2 cars then that will be ok wont it yeah ill meet you in the morning im gna route pan it now see what sort of time ild need to set off
