If im using the trailer then M180 is good but if not then its a Retford blast for me.
I`ll be in touch.
Yes its a great bit of road from Retford to Gainsbrough in a seven

Might have to try that Retford route this time as I've done A631 Bawtry the previous 2 times 
Any Cameras to watch out for on that?

Theres loads on the Bawtry route
Thats why we avoid it to be honest.
Cant remember seeing any on the Retford road from memory but Plod may remind me that there is on the Monday via post if there is
Fancy meeting the rest of us at jcn 30 at around 7.45?

Great afternoon at Blyton, good to catch up again with everyone again as always, some quick cars on track, a Orange Tiger was going well, another
Seven with a RX7 NA engine sounded well, Jon's locost busa, not the prettiest cars on track  but one of the quickest I think he was
trying to set the record for how many laps you could do on a single trackday . But the award for the prettiest car on track had to go to
Leon's ( big_I) MNR Busa, the best put together MNR ive seen, and shot a nice flame out of the exhaust on every down change
Also watched the grass tracking on the way out, the twin bike engined Fiat Cinquecento's etc went very well.
I did not take any photo's but I am sure Andy or someone will post some up.

Cracking day, was expecting to get rained off at lunch but it never came. The new R888's made it more fun.
Hope I didn't hold to many people up with my little 1.6 Xflow
Although I did overtake the Escort Cosworth on one lap....he may have been on a cool down lap, or not, but it sounds good anyway
Just need to save some pennies up now to get more power

Great day, our old MR2 went as well as it ever has I don't think it embarrassed itself anyway.
I probaly met a few of you, I do like a chin-wag
Big thanks to Jon in his 'Locoblade' for more passenger laps than I bargained for, he does like to bang those laps in Very impressive
for a 'non-pretty', live-axled, out-dated engined, shed-built seven alike. Anybody building a track '7' and thinks they need
this, that and the other to make it fast......have a ride with Jon first and then decide
