Next time we will have to pick a stand alone RWYB day.
apparently it's normally a 20 min wait??
Today was a joke,guess I didn't need to get up at 5.40 :sleeping_2:
Still a wicked drive down, at least mine keeps up with a c63

That was well worth going to have a look, thanks for organizing, Graeme.

I definitely thing the best part was the drive there and back in convoy!! Was good to see everyone again, and the new faces.

I only did 1 run, the queue was stupid. Considering I didn't get a great start I'm pretty pleased with the times:

Thanks for organising Graeme. I echo everyone else really in that the convoy and just seeing everyone was the best bit, didn't like the attitude of some of the staff and the place was brimming with chavs. Oh and how bloody cold was it!?

Got one run in which was a disaster due to my clutch pedal completely sticking to the floor on the first gear change

Fun day, but very cold and really busy
Had three runs in the end, but couldn't get it dialled in
Launch control meant bogging down in wheel spin on cold tyres having sat in the queue for an hour+ and planting throttle meant it didn't really get started
Fun day though and definitely up for another at a less busy event with less chavs drinking Stella :)

Drive up in the convoy was fun. Like being a 17yr old again :)

Great to see everyone. Crazy convoy there ;) - managed 11 mpg average

It was pretty busy today, the busiest I've ever seen it. Does anyone else have windburn?

I've got gut rot from the worst coffee ever that me and Silas got when we first arrived and both threw away :assflash:

I had the same thought about a re visit. There is a weekend in May that is just two RWYB no show over the same weekend.
