MNR owners in the South/South East
Hi, wondering how many owners are based in the south or south east and in and around london and if any owners would be interested in this
"Southern Meet + Run 6th Sept" in the club and events section. Il be heading down in my R1 MNR from Caterham and would be good to see some
fellow owners.
I was going to put this on the MNR forum but guess what its down again and none of you read it anyway

Looking good Adam, I look on the MNR forum every day, well try too anyway, its always toooooooo slow!
I would be up for it if I still lived in Twickenham.. but then I wouldn't have had space to build a car.. hmm.
Good luck anyway

Hi Adam,
I'm still trying to decide, it's a bit far from me in Essex though.
I thought about using the trailer to get part way, but not sure where to leave it.
If the weather is good it might still be worth finding a way !

If the weathers good, I may be up for it.
Will be the furthest I'll have driven it on the road, but I bet it's less than a days tracking.

I'd be up for it if my car was finished. I think I'm going for the record for the longest build!
Oh yeah, I also visit the MNR Forum regularly, when it is up!

Hi, well if anyone can make it really would be great to meet a few other members especially as the MNR cars make up a small but growing percentage of
the 7 market.
George (or anyone else needing to drop bits off) if the trailers small ish it could be left at mine - im off of the main road so its quiet or driveway
that fits 3 cars?
As Steve said though i think for a lot of us it will depend on weather so il keep an eye out the whole week before and update this page if it looks
likely or not

I would of liked to of come along but I think 80miles is a bit to far. I wouldn't mind if it was 80miles of back roads but most of it would be
along the A27 not the most enjoyable run.....but still remains a posibility

George / Steve, the distance from the Wrotham start point to Bentley is about 40 miles - Wrotham is about 9 miles from the Dartford crossing. If you
want to leave a trailer, then could do that at my place which is enroute to the Wrotham start. That said, i know we all are comfortable driving
different distances, but us kent boys do 120-150 each weekend with a 45 minute break for brekkie :-)
from the Wrotham start point there won't then be any m/ways, just a+b roads.

Hi,
Wrotham is easy for us. We're about 20-25 mins from the crossing, so 35-40 miles from Wrotham.
We had a Sunday run of 70+ miles with no probs, so looks like about double that for the day, -weather permitting !!
Steve has been to Detling before in his, but mine has only been on the road since end of June. Will be a good day.

i think ive only driven my car about 20-30 miles away from home at most as mine was also finished quite recently (still waiting for it to fall
apart) so this should be a good test for the car.

Wannabe Vortx owner
Hi,
I'm seriously looking at getting a Vortx kit in the near future, if the weather holds and you guys go would you mind if i came along and took a
look at yours? I'm going to visit the factory at some point this month but i'd just like to see some finished cars, and talk through your
builds.
Cheers, Jason
