Great video DK, it's hard to lead something like this and keep it the right side of fun. I didn't sign up for the meet but still gutted that I couldn't make it. Epic part of the country for driving and well worth the 5 hours it takes me personally to get there! If there's another and circumstances allow, I'll be there hounding that F-typop...pop...pop...pop.

Anyone know where the Police were? I assume on the way into Wales rather than the triangle itself?

P.S. what's going on with the RS4's DRL lights, hope they aren't the site Sponsor EM Tuning ones!

The old bill were on the Triangle itself.

When compared to the Road in the vid, I'm really now starting to think the Triangle is overrated !

The slippers and boy racer led all the RS's on the day? Shame on you fellas!

P.S another great Vid Dk!
I hadn't got a clue where we were going so was quite happy to follow the slippers. :beerchug:

I'll have a look at my camera to see what video was captured.

Me, Carl and Nick shoot off into the sun set and the rest are no where to be seen ! must be the carbon build up !
Haha. You 3 were gone and I was behind Chris's RS6 which held its own really well until the brakes gave way!!!

Ile have my stage 2 done by next time for a bit more of a responsive coming out of the bends lol

It didn't do too bad, but certainly not a patch on the RS4's or the Megane - the weight difference makes a huge contribution to the handling on that type of road I imagine - or maybe I'm just making excuses and need to learn to drive it properly on the twisties!

Certainly looking forward to the next one - just hope I can keep up :thumb:

:shock: :shock: :shock: oh...ok!!!

Only ever done it on a weekday and never really seen much about. It’s always better enjoyed at a higher speed, which just isn't really appropriate in the company of others.

I can really recommend the A44 Llangurig - Aberystwyth and also the B4518 past Llyn Clywedog. You could just drive the length of the A470 and be happy if I'm honest.

WOW!! What a day that was, on the road 5am-9:30pm. Fantastic turnout - well done everyone! Thanks for organising. Great to meet you all in your pride and joys, some lovely motors and well looked after.

Great pictures guys, I think next time we should bring sausages to cook on the B5's BBQ!!! Great vid DK - very funny! Shame I was too late to see the other ones you posted. I did some videoing myself but didn't turn out too good, it wasn't angled enough from the side window so too much 'A post' in the way, I will know for next time!

I took the scenic route back to Surrey, going down the A470 to the Brecon Beacons and Byrnamman - AWESOME!! They have put 40mph signs along that stretch from cattle grid to cattle grid so there will probably be pigs up there as well as sheep!

I would be up for doing another trip, family life permitting of course, Brecon could be good as there are a number of roads that zig zag over the moors???

Will keep a look out and hopefully fit it in.

Just as a note, if you're using a Go Pro which supports wifi you can use their app and get a realtime view of what's being recorded as well as start, end the recording etc. Particularly useful when the camera is mounted to the exterior of the car.
