Sadly we couldn't make it there so I'm looking to try to pick a copy up when I'm over there as...

    Fashion Grey we call it. Or Shiny Primer. Not a fan myself.

    How do we rejected access our application as is referred to in our bad new letter?

    As the token Englishman on this thread, I've got some views on this :lol However, I'd imagine there's a limit on post length so I'll keep to one statement :- The first person that goes to the bar and says 'Can I get...' buys everyone in earshot a drink. No you cannot 'get', that's the barman's...

    Car hire in Austin

    Great idea! Glue a Ford badge on the front and back and half the population wouldn't know it's not a GT40.

    Chris Amon

    Very nice. Any chance I could get a digital copy? I'd like to put a copy on the car for the upcoming Goodwood Revival just before the rally.

    Car hire in Austin

    Thanks chaps, Chevy Spark it is then :lol I had one in Madeira a couple of years ago. I recon with the aircon on it'll struggle to get out of the carpark.... Got a Focus at the moment but might upgrade. Yeah, it's the or similar bit that gets me. Also that'll be without insurance. The cheap...

    Car hire in Austin

    The last bit of the puzzle is getting a hire car. The issue is trying to guarantee a Ford it seems (don't really want to turn up in something else)! One place, an arm of Enterprise, will state the exact car but for a Mustang it's epically expensive. As the GT is above our baggage allowance and...

    Original FGT owners (that still own their car) that did NOT get order

    I'm going to type my next few posts backwards so my post count goes down and it doesn't look like I spend too much time here. Well it sort of worked for Ferris... :lol

    Photoradar tickets in France

    The French have lost any sense of humour they had on speeding during Le Mans, and other times thinking about it. They've become annoyingly persistent. If you fancy going back I'd pay as they have long memories... Italy, hhmmm less of an issue, you'd be unlucky have any trouble in the future...

    Rally 11 - COTA

    Is everyone staying at the JW in town? We've got another hotel booked but could always move over. Looking forward to seeing you all!

    Who is driving to Rally from Dallas or surrounding areas?

    That's very kind and much appreciated.

    Who is driving to Rally from Dallas or surrounding areas?

    Great thanks! Went for the direct option you suggested, fly in Wednesday fly out Wednesday, fun in between :biggrin That's booked. Got an option on a hotel that looks ok, but will consider the JW. Next hire car. How to guarantee a Ford will be the game I guess. I'm going to look a right idiot...

    Who is driving to Rally from Dallas or surrounding areas?

    You guys are obviously from around that area. If you had a choice of flying into Dallas or Houston which would you pick and why? We're coming from the UK and I believe those are the only choices for direct flights. That's unless someone has another great route! Thanks in advance! Phil

    Rally 11 - COTA

    The site never worked here in the UK (and still doesn't for me right now, I just get a DNS lookup error). Sad that we never got to register... We were looking at coming over anyway, but I'm concerned we'll never get to meet anyone? Whilst watching racing is fun, half the trip was to finally put...
