Just one car the crew told me the meeting place was in a supermarket carpark. I went there to meet a few other ones before they take their short rest.

Nick Jones Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I certainly aim to. SWMBO was showing some signs of interest (!). Senior son would probably also be keen, though I doubt the insurance folks will play ball on that.May even have the new engine fitted this time...... or maybe not...... who knows.Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Hunt Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I will be entering as co-driver in Howard Pryor's increasingly nice TR4, always assuming he can resist preparing it to concours standard by next September! It's about time I got the chance to cane someone else's car. It will be a pity to break my run of six 10CR completions (if you count the inaugural 2003 event as a 10CR) in the same car but I have nothing to prove and suspect it could be some time before that record is broken. Anyway we always have the 4A as back up if needed.Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goody Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Team Shorts, No run would be the same without them. You know they were very much missed on the RBRR! Ok they did show up at a check point. Now where are the petro heads? They allways buy me BEER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did specifically ask about that when I rang the current insurers (RH) before - no dice with them, though they did say that >18 and 1 years driving experience (both of which will be true by then) would open up the possibilities.

richard w Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I'm seriously thinking about it. I don't know if Enzo can co-drive next year though, so I'll either need another co-driver, or join someone else. If I do enter it'll have to be the Stag as I'm not lucky (rich) enough to have another option!Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
