if you can sleep in a travelodge then this is acceptable.

I can't. :(

Breakfast reviews were the only reason I finally succumbed and chances are, given the Mountain, I may well not bother with it. :sick:

anyone wanna lend me their Performance box for a couple of laps to grab some data? :P :D I sold mine when I left VX world. poof

If I don't modify mine for a more permanent and less visible install tomorrow, then you can borrow mine at some point. thumbsup

:yeahthat: Having left my research too late and having just watched Max's videos, don't think I'll be breakfasting either - although given the early sign-on it'd probably be too early for me anyway.

Looking like 888s? :closedeyes:

£70 at possibly the worst decorated hotel I've ever seen. :( :lol:

Just called and got the last room in the place.

An executive double for £75. Shouldn't have let it so late!!!!

So any tyre choice is probably going to be wrong! :rolleyes: ;)

Well I've just put the 888s on with some reasonably white wheels and have checked fluids etc so I am largely good for the off apart from giving it a quick wash in the morning - left it too late today and it's currently way too hot on the drive.

...Well, it looks to be another dry day tomorrow. Are any of you peeps meeting up tonight for a beer in Louth? If so, let me know. ...also, if anyone is after a B&B for tonight & tomorrow night, I know where there's one available for only £75 for the two nights. Vix, Cadwell is a beautiful setting, just take it easy in the morning, I always do! Wait until the track is dry through the trees. Most of the fast areas do have ample run off....others don't!!!!

Thanks for the advice Max. I did wonder about the damp under the trees when watching the vids. I think a few of us are going to be in the Beaumont Hotel but no arrangements yet for a beer AFAIK. thumbsup
PS Hope the weather in Cadwell tomorrow is brighter than it is in MK at the moment! :(
