  1. You will have noticed my reluctance to take the lead from you when you pulled over after the gt6 you were following nearly went through a gate post , however once accepted I hope I didn't hold the convoy up to much in my 13/60
  2. Team 30 GEORGE THE HERALD Probably the slowest car in the field but I did give it bean's through Wales and by careful time management in the later stages still managed to be 5th car back Despite the weather this was once again an amazing event Massive thanks to the organisers and marshals who get thus boat to float Master light switch gave up sending voltage to instrunet lights ,google sat nav became my speedo Minor issues were a thermostat that stuck open somewhere bear Corbridge meaning no heat to screen so we were continually wiping away until john of groats when it was a less wet, but still raining and so an opportunity to change it( I was initially worried we had lost coolant, but thr car was running find until later miles when a small amount of choke was required, due to tge external water cooling going on by nature) A condenser started to fail and was swapped out at falls of shin Many thanks Julian and Ben George and Zippy knackered

  5. the maps are short sections i think you will be fine as long as you have opened the map and are running it before you enter a no signal area as it will be running nav from phone gps , you will lose search and live traffic functionality of course until signal/data is restored

  8. from bbc website for those of you driving cars that will do more than 20mph Will I be fined if I break the 20mph limit? The new 20mph limit has come into force for all restricted roads, which are defined as ones with lampposts placed not more than 200 yards (about 180m) apart. If you are pulled over doing more than 20mph in a built-up area in Wales you could, in theory, fined a minimum £100 and get three penalty points. But police say the response will be proportionate and reasonable while drivers get used to the change as the focus for the first 12 months will be on education - as officers have a level of discretion. GoSafe is made up of Wales' police forces, councils and the Welsh government, and applies the guidelines for road fines. It said while the public gets used to the change in the limit, it will only start to prosecute at 26mph in a 20mph zone.
  9. i remember following you some where around bude, it was an impressive smoke screen you were putting out 🙂
