I shall skip the visit to Donnington and the drive around the area as I would probably be running around sorting out the last minute jobs for the BBQ in the morning

I shall join you on A447 (time and location, please) to form a convoy into Mallory Park if that is OK with you

I will not forget about you, and will let you know a time and place we can meet. However, you may have finished your jobs by 3pm, then you can come along.

We may go to Mallory Park to help setting up at about 16:00h, so see how it goes nearer the time I guess

Update

When you turn up at the Hanover for the Mallory Park Warm Up Run tell the security man that your are with MINI2.COM and he will direct you round to the helipad where we will meet.
Please be there between 2:30 and 2:45.

(Minty - it may be advisable to remove your target for that day )

Cool route 66?

M2,
Can you post a route tip thing as we are trying to decide which one to go with, the museum or the run, although I got to say, the run sounds fun and will provide ample footage for a home movie or two!

Cheers

OK!

The route will start from the Hanover then onto a Diving Centre called Stoney Cove. From here we will drive through Burbage Common. We will then join the A47 for a short distance leading onto the country lanes. The next stop will be at the battle of Bosworth field. (Nice photo shoot if the sun is out!). We will then continue to head north through the county lanes heading onto the A447 where we will head south towards Mallory Park.
This is just a summary for s_and_m
Full instructions will be issued on the day.
If it's to short, then we can do another 5 laps
Hope this helps.

Nah, that was my fault; I should've trusted you but I panicked Let's see who else is coming round M25 then up the M1, should be able to figure a meeting place or two.

Who else driving North up M1 from M25 on Saturday afternoon?
