Keeping your options open then Alan

Yep, but I think cruise control would be nice to help with the 180ish mile journey up.

I don't know whether you have already seen this but for all you guys booked on the classic run two of our run group leaders: Paul and Duncan have produced a little youtube video of this year's classic run route. Paul will be one of the classic run leaders and his gorgeous Elan was voted winner of car of the day last year.

If you still wish to all travel in the same group then don't forget to provide me a list of MLOC names of all those booked on and we'll make sure you're together. Similarly if you would like a dedicated 'Lotus Grand Tourers' pitch at Chatsworth to promote lotusexcel.net then please give me an idea of numbers nearer the time and we'll allocate a suitable space.

We told you we had some great Raffle Prizes for you, we will be announcing them every weekend on our Facebook page starting this week with two superb prizes from Classic Team Lotus, 2x Classic Team Lotus Race Shirts!
