Words cannot (and should not ) describe how much of a good night it turned out to be. Impressed with the standard of driving from everyone on the night, close formation driving nascar style within the speed limits requires some concentration, well done boys and girls

Everyone is welcome on the next one, its not just an ESC only meeting, come and join us...

The Park Police were well & Did not insist on us leaving , They knew that we were all good Boy's & Girls Apart from one !!

Told us that we were welcome to stay until the other scoobs arrived , But it looks like the other Scoobs made it over Chelsea Bridge around the roundabout & Straight past the park entrance where we was all parked waiting for them

Milambers Plan Z Worked a treat on the night

Plan Z(a)i I think

Yeah the park police were great, no problems off them whatsoever. There just didn't seem any point hanging around in the park as everyone else was lost.

Comes down as 43MB

Load it into Windows Movie Maker or simular, then compress it down for broadband viewing.

wmv I find is the easiest.

I'd clocked it in my rear view mirror when we left Maccy Dees, and as it dropped back every time I put my foot down, I assumed it was just a chav-special...........right up until the point it blasted past me at about Mach 4 spitting flames and the driver grinning like a loony!

This seems to be an annual event, if it happens too often then I doubt if we will see such huge crowds.....

Was it Tiny's flames, perhaps he caught it on the flame-cam?

We got a little split up heading towards the Dartofrd Tunnel, some of us went A13 others went via Docklands/Excel. Can someone write a short review describing the blast along Docklands/Excel? I undertsand that was a fun route.
