You guys should try to travel north once in a while where there are proper roads. It'll be good for you. The beer is stronger tho so be careful.

I live in Southampton and work in Portsmouth (Navy Base). Kinrara lives about 15 miles away in Chichester. Not sure where we are going to meet, just yet, but I'm sure she would be welcome to join in. .

We need to hire a 2 mile straight from somewhere... THEN ppl will come
Two mile straight? With roads like you've got in North Yorkshire? Aren't these rear engined contraptions any good on challenging roads then?

lol. I was kinda thinking that would be my answer. i really was.
Anyways, I really enjoy the threads like dreamcars trip, R8MKN's lambo/london pics, emperor's harrods thread, and of course easy's. Thats was part of my beef in ot. These threads are unique to rennteam whereas the other stuff - babes and such are all over the net and that's good.
I am a big fan of the english countryside, have been there a couple of times (southern england) and will be again. I have always wanted to visit Chester because at least in the very few pics i have seen it is incredible. If you or a group of rennteamers would take some shots there of the city and your car(s) it would be appreciated. Also tell the un-informed about the area.
Many pics, of the unique or interesting things only a local would know with a cool car in the mix and a babe or two is what I like to see here on rennteam. Certain parts of the world are just much better looking than others and sometimes the residents there may become jaded and not realize it.
an example of Chester, take a photo here on a blue sky day with porsches in the foreground;

As a starter, a friend of mine called Steve Howe has produced a brilliant independant web-site of Chester which you may find interesting....link - http://www.chesterwalls.info/chester.html
Part-way down the index on the left is a link to 'Tower Wharf'. In that you'll find another link to one of my entertainment venues, in Chester, called 'Telford's Warehouse'....these premises were the original warehousing facilities of Thomas Telford when engaged in the building of the Shropshire Union Canal.
I could go on, but will start the 'project' as soon as possible and let you know how it's going.
Please take a good look at Steve's site...it's the best part of a lifetime's work.
