    Brooklands Merc world....7th Dec @ 11:00

    I've been asked by JT a month or so ago if We're organising another Merc world trip it's while and I have a hankering for going on another hot lap or two.

    Volvo graham hasn't been to any / many southern meets this year due to date clashes, so hopefully he can post up a date he and Ann are free then try and match it up with JT.

    Hopefully this means, both the above can go and then just run with that date and see who fancies it, always a good laugh especially the hot laps.

    16th is an event at Brooklands motor museum, maybe avoid this rest are event free weekends.

    Hot laps start at 1pm iirc but need to book on the day when you get there and they do get booked up.

    Tour is 12 iirc and worth doing cost is approx £2 (used to be free).

    The only dates I have free are.....

    Sat 1st Nov
    Sun 2nd Nov
    Sun 9th Nov
    Sun 7th Dec

    Please don't organise this solely round Anne and myself, if the majority can do another date I will try for a shift swap (but don't hold your breath)

    i went a few months ago & tbh it was rubbish, they've lost alot of the display area to conference rooms & had hardly anything there. The most exciting thing was a DTM homologation road car
