Maybe this could be coincided with the Cholmondely Spring Car Club Day?
Meet at Cholmondely in the morning, spend some time there, then continue on to Donington or Cat and Fiddle (whatever is most popular)?

Have you changed your weekends with the kids? I know your weekends without them used to fall on the same weekends I'm off from my evening job.
You should have instilled some discipline about Coupes and meets from an early age, then you wouldn't have this problem

You don't believe in the more modern methods available to prevent accidents these days then?

So what are the plans then?

Re: Midlands Meet 14th April - 07/04/2013 09:03
As my car hasn't been mapped yet I can't do a spirited run. So I think a meet up at Donington Park museum about 10-10.30 have a look around the museum take a few pics on the car park or down at the airplane graveyard. Then have a bit of a drive to the pub in the afternoon.
I'll sort a run out for those that want a bit more of a drive.
Ok Paul when you thinking of doing the cat and fiddle drive then?...

Re: Midlands Meet 14th April - 07/04/2013 11:22
As soon as my car is mapped up. But there is a lot of meets coming up so I'll need to organise it so it doesn't clash with anything else.

Re: Midlands Meet 14th April - 14/04/2013 18:44
Another good blast down south and back up again, well worth the effort.
Great to meet the guys again and put names to faces of new friends made.
That Donnington motor museum is like a tardis, looks small from the outside but huge inside
An amazing collection of motorsport history and militaria, love the mahoosive blower on the Turbocharged F1, running a measly 80psi
Thanks for organising it Paul, Sofia loved every minute
See you at CPOP

I still can't believe I took directions home and then shook hands with a blue nose. The misses made me wash my hand before she let me through the door
Thanks Porky, was a good meet.

Thanks to everyone that turned up. Great to see everyone again.
I thought the museum was going be a bit boring but was surprised to see how many different cars were in there. And to see the differences between the cars in only a couple of years of each other was amazing.
Shame the weather wasn't the best.
Will do Mike. Thanks.
