Southern Meet Hastings/Brighton

[Guest]

Hi Robbie,

It would be nice to see you... Goodwood to Brighton on the A27 , the bugbear is Worthing/Goring which is a bit slow but I`ve always found the rest of the route good...all dual carriageway with no speed cameras.

Hey, if you`re coming you could lead for a bit on your alternative route[] Route reviews are most welcome. Simms usually manages to take troups off road in search of Shell Petrol, along the beach last time so hey, your route can`t be worse!

And hi Les too...your former strutbrace is still in place on SCZ I just put that small in case any one thought I`m off-topic!

Is a Thurrock rendezvous still on the cards or is everyone from Essex and related places going straight to Goodwood ?

 

[John Sims]

We are still doing Thurrock - 6:30 for 7:00 departure. So far I am aware of four cars at this meet from Essex alone so it could make for a good run.

 

[wizard]

I'll be going to Goodwood but sadly in the Laguna [] and i'll be mostly coming in from the other direction to you lot.
Jon informs me KUI is still on life support for another month until the release of a new Garrett Hybrid is released.[8D]

 

[Suffolk944]

Am certainly hoping to come along though fraid I still cant confirm it for certain as yet as am waiting on other things sorting themselves out before I can commit.

Will certainly look to join the Thurrock posse if I do. I take it the rendezvous is at Thurrock services ?

Oh yes. []

 

[pal944]

Are you guys going pass clacket lane services on the way to goodwood because we are coming from the A21 and it would be easier to meet you lot as you go pass!

 

[John Sims]

Autoroute seems to indicate that, if we leave Thurrock services at 7:00 we should pass Clacket Lane at 7:24 and turn onto the M23 11 minutes later.

If you have 2 way radios I will be on Channel 500. Or ring me on 07887791913.

 

[pal944]

[John Sims]

Hi Neil,

It is a bit difficult to establish as few have said they are definitely going.

As far as I am aware the definites are:-
​

Keith (obviously)​

Peter Empson
Rock Connoll
Neil Haughey
John Sims
pal944
Christopher I Ralph
Wizard (in a Laguna)
Suffolk944
Big Les
Robbie

Possibles are

Cliffordl
Hilux (At Goodwood but might not make it to Brighton)

Anyone else please let me know and I'll add your name above.

I haven't checked Titanic so, again, if anyone is aware of any others it would be good to get an idea of what to expect prior to Sunday.

Also, I can't make The Ace tomorrow (as I'm picking up the new member of the Sims tribe) so there may be more comming following that.​

Hi John,

Robbie

Bon Soir All,

There follows a summary of the arrangements for this Sunday (June 3rd) Southern Meet, for those who have just spotted the post and don`t want to read 4 pages of forum talk! Or who would just like a printable summary.

All welcome, including non-944 cars, this is the third meet, and this year focuses on the Goodwood Supercar Breakfast Club Meet.


There are cars coming from Essex and London so there is a meet at Thurrock Services for a 07.00hrs departure. Heading South for a 07.25hrs meet at Clackett Lane Services (Clockwise Side) for an M23 run to the coast and the A27. If you have a 2 way radio go to Channel 500 or Channel 5 (sub channel 00) and ask for John or Rock. There are also cars coming via A303/M3/M27 West side...post below for sub-meet details. There will be cars coming from Hastings, bottom of the A21, leaving the East End Seafront Carpark (Ring Keith on 07766920227 if lost[]) at 08.30hrs and driving via Eastbourne for the A27 to Brighton and on to Goodwood. Hopefully meeting the Essex/London contingent en route. The Venue is Goodwood for 10.00hrs til 12.00hrs. The afternoon venue starts at Brighton en convoi from Goodwood, meet NCP North Laines Car Park, 13.00hrs-ish. Then a stroll and lunch in Brighton. For the adventurous I will lead a convoy back to Hastings on the "Coast Road" via Beachy Head, with a finishing point of "Tea in Hastings", and access to the A21 back to the M25.

Please join at any point that makes a good drive out for you (And of course depart at the best exit for you). The times above are guidelines only, and if you miss an en route venue Go For Goodwood! 10.00hrs-12.00hrs.

If you would like to check directions and mileages try www.mapquest.co.uk

Look forward you seeing you this Sunday.​

All the bad weather was used last "Bank Holiday", so it will be glorious "Roof Off" weather guaranteed. []​

 

[Suffolk944]

Can put me down as a definite now []

 

[John Sims]

Cool! []

 

[Robbiemeister]

Provining it's not pissing with rain I will be there.

Coming from Guildford, via Bramley, Wishborough Green and Petworth.

[Big Les]

I live in Chichester so will meet at Goodwood and join for the run to Brighton. Is there a list of who will be coming to Goodwood - so I can look out for anyone?
