Nah, were going to go off a jct 19 and head cross country.

Miles quicker, 19 - 20 is a long junction (over 10 miles if I remember correctly) and the services at Jct 15 has optimax for us. Got a jerrie can for a top up when we arrive at brunters.

Is South Mimms the one near Dartford? you will have to Toe it in an hour and a half. Will the Mitsi's go that far on a tank?

Serious question - not taking wee wee!

Junction 20 is only a few miles from Brunters, 19 is the long way - certainly in time.

OK jct 20 it is.

Should be able to do it in an hour and a half at a reasonable speed, circa 70mph.

If i members last time we did it in an hr and 20!!! but some one drove straight past 10miles to nxt junction,and then 10 miles back :oops:

:oops: schoolboy.

We had a good pace going last time - made good progress but didnt attract any unwanted attention, repeat performance would be ideal.

not making the same mistake I made last time ... caning it all the way there and then doing even more miles to find that optimax station ... then caning all the way to the circuit and then having to stop early because the fuel was getting low. Nice and easy all the way there so plenty of petrol for the scaring sessions this time methinks.

Are you southen lot meeting us northen lot at the M1 services?
That way we all arrive at the same time 30ish car convoy.
Think we should be at the services for 7:15...

That will be a no Gazman.

For the simple reason that the services are at J21 which is north of J20 where the southern lot are getting off at.

If Chris and Rosy are ferrying the southern lot for optimax and onto Bruntingthorpe, I have no problem in meeting you lot at somewhere near J21 and taking you for fuel and onto Brunters.

There is an optimax station about 5 miles from brunters but it would be difficult for me to explain where it is.
