How about joining me (weather permitting) at the first Goodwood Breakfast Club event of 2012 for tax-exempt cars?
I look forward to seeing you there!

New engine's up and running again, so before the Davrian gets loaded up on the trailer, this could be a handy trip to get some more running in miles onto it.
So if the sun stays out, I'll try my best to come along.
Only a week away...any one else intend to go?

Well. the rain was not very heavy this morning at 7.15 so thought I'd risk it.
Left at about 8.15 and arrived at about 10 with the rain getting steadily worse all the way
That's the longest I've driven it on the road in a long while, as I'm afraid it spends most of it's time on the trailer being ferried back and forth for hillclimbs and sprints.
An enjoyable run though, but trying to only touch 4K gently every now and again (due to running in) is very difficult with a very low top gear.
Sorry for missing those that came and went early (I don't blame you, the weather was lousy and cold)
Many thanks to John for hanging on long enough to say hello.
Only stayed about 3/4 of an hour. Had a quick stroll round, spent a penny, and drove back again. At least it forced me out to get some miles onto the new engine.

What! Even your one leaks too
Jolly glad to hear it.
On the drive down to Goodwood in mine, a puddle was appearing on top of the centre console
A few slightly wet bits here and there, but surprisingly I only had to use the sponge I went armed with a couple of times.
If you're refering to the other meet duscussed for the 14th April, I'm afraid that clashes with a sprint at Lydden Hill I am hoping to compete at.
