Offline | the mini challenge racein starts at 9.00 the parade lap ( record atempt ) is in the brake 12.50-13.05 it finishes at 18.00 so what time would you like to leave to go down allowin 2,1/2 hours to get there and mess is in the sticks so will take him 45-50 mins to get to darlington area example: meet scotch corner sevices for 7.15am leave services 7.30am there for 10.00am all times are a guess may take less maybe more |

![]() Obsessive Car Cleaner OCC | It would be this early for me but i think i may plan ahead this time as 5am is bloomin early even for me lol.. Im gunna wash the car the night before in the dark (Neighbours will think what the hell), pre iron all clothes and pack the car with some stuff of some sort. Not sure if my women is comin yet i doubt it but then when she'l be stuck in on her own for the day she'l soon relise and say okay then! Mess i doubt we'l get a proper run around the track its just gunna be a granny run around, which is makin me think this is a hell of alot of driving there and back for 15 mins on a track but what the hell its only expensive fuel lol |

![]() Obsessive Car Cleaner OCC | I no my car is bad on fuel but a tank and half for 300 mile round trip?? well i guess you are abit further north than me lol! ill get it on a tank i think well hope so! Ill get 350 on the motorway for a tank but only around 220 in towns! Im not sure if ill be meeting you lot at scotch corner as it maybe easier for me just to go straight on the A19 and if 1 of you has ya hands free kits on ill ring yas and catch up with yas on the A1. |
