I'd just like to say thanks to everyone for allowing me the time and space to look and ask questions today.

Big thanks to Martin for giving me a briefing on his immaculate white NA.

Hopefully, the next time we meet I'll be able to play properly i.e. I'll have my own Esprit.

Thanks once again.

Graham.

GUTTED !!!!

Not only did I miss the annual meet but I also missed TV2005 on Saturday. Mind you I was in St Johns, Newfoundland and if anyone has ever been there they will know how awesome a nightstop it is... Especially on a Saturday

Knackered too...

What a fabulous day.

My favourite moment was being in the lead pack on the 1st half doing 110 bananas down a B road with no central white line following the Ferrari 360 - what a beautiful noise that thing makes. The smell in the air of 10 supercars going heavy on the throttle was intoxicating.

Glad that everybody accepted Tim and Brad's TVR into the fold. Their impressions are that Esprit owners are much more pleasant than TVR owners :)

The location of the house was sublime and the food and talk were both fantastic. A big thank you to Dermot, Kato and Rob for a perfectly executed day.

Seconding Jasons comments - thanks to all that arranged an excellent day!

The site of a procession of Esprit prowling the countryside, interspersed by periods where the pace of travel seemed only just subsonic, along excellent country roads, was immense.

I must confess to simply not having the bottle to go quite that fast!

Great day!

Simon

ps Jason the smell of burning rubber as I nearly made aquaintance with your rear still lingers in the ol' nostrils!

Well done to those that put the time and effort into organising things like this, top job.

Reet bring on the next one!!!!

Cheers
