Your car sounds absolutely fantastic on full chat!! in the afternoon session I was on the otherside (where the hill is) of the proper start finish. it sounded like a F1 car and of course the colour change on the car is amazing(nice car one of my favourites in the club) Buzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz Billsberry Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 Cheers Barry. I've actually done some packing to nite and I must admit I'm gettin in the mood.Atho' I'll feel better once I've dropped me comapny car of at work and then head on down to Gatwick. I feel sorry for the guys how are goin on the lash on weds nite in the hotel.I wouldn't fancy a 10 hour flight with a banging headache plus the quality of the re-cycled air in the cabin will really drive the hangover home. R we having a few beer in the morning? .we should get ther for around 06.30 I could meet u in the bar around 070? I read on the forum we have our own checking area? where is it in the terminal? as it ain't mentioned and I can't be arsed wading thro' the 216 emails i got from the weekend!!

Barry Ashcroft Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 When you arrive to Gatwick NORTH Terminal you need to make your way to Zone D, Desks 15/16 for check in. BA has these for groups, and they will be expecting us there. Flight: BA 2025 Departs: 10 am Departure Date: 15/Sept Flight Code: KIDXFW Never departed from the north terminal normally south with virgin in the south up stairs there is a wetherspoons for a pint and a fryup so hopefully there is the same in the north terminal.

Im sure will catch up at some point, I spent the morning session learning the track or trying and the afternoon trying to pick up the pace , I got a polite ticking off from Steve for "aggresive overtaking" it was the nicest bollocking ive ever had I checked over my in car video and I still cant see what I did wrong , Im guessing someone didnt like being overtaken by a piddly 1.3 scooter ... Anyway Cadwell was awesome its a one I cant wait to do again! good luck with the usa thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz Billsberry Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 It was around £1450 but would normally be around £1800 but because theres 42 cars or so goin we got a bit of discount.Tarvelling time is something around 16days, the cars went from Barking (london) to Houston the amount of paper work involved in gettin your car out to the states is a rite pain but it will be worth it me things I've had a good look at the route book for the 1st time and well there's some fantasic senery,day trips what where gonna do is put picks on our websites every few days Barry Ashcroft and Si Houghton will be doin the same so look out for them 4 web page link just click on me www at the bottom of this notice but there ain't owt on it yet Buzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
