Yes ladies and gentlemen, its time to dust off the car, polish up those lights, lose the sunglasses and head out into the night for the Guildford Run.
Event Day: Friday 22 October 2010.
Usual plan, meet around 11:15 - 12:00 and at midnight set off for a run (in the cars unless you're fat like me and want to lose weight).
THERE WILL BE A NEW ROUTE FOR THIS ONE!
Usually return to our start place at about 3am.
We have a German IMOC member in attendance so lets have a great turn out for the last Midnight Run of the year!
Names down in the usual manner please and I will update this post shortly once the route is planned and checked.
1. Tiamat
Meeting place for the Midnight Run: Bramley Village Library just south of Guildford on the A281. Post code is GU5 0HG.
Arrival time is 11:15 onwards to leave at 12:00.
We have loud stereos and exhausts, there has never been any trouble with using this venue, however in the interests of being pleasant and congenial to the village, please keep all noise to a minimum.
Anyone revving exhausts or having loud music will be asked to stop or to leave, you endanger our ability to do the run if you do this. Having a loud exhaust is acceptable, otherwise I'd have to ban myself, its acting responsible that we are after
Update:
For those who have never been before, or have been but not the full length: there is no allocated fuel stop along the planned route, it is recommended that you start with a full tank, or as close to it as possible. There are petrol stations in Guildford, Broadbridge Heath, on the A281 and there is a BP garage in Bramley, but I cannot tell you who will be open that night or not.
Remember bring coffee, smokes, red bull / whatever you need for the night. Oh and a coat, it can get cold and we do have a couple of breather stops.

I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.
Re: Guildford Midnight Run 6: Hot 6 Deutsch Style
Any more? This is considered to be one of the premier MR2 events of the South Coast and promises to be a gooooooood run

Re: Guildford Midnight Run 6: Hot 6 Deutsch Style
My mate from FDUK has asked if I wanna go to this, but didnt fancy the idea of going with the RX7 boys, I'd much rather go with some '2s I'll think about it, its a reasonable trip me to go to the starting line!

FDUK?
This event is not on the FDUK and no RX7s are involved.
Do not confuse this with the Tunnel Run, it is completely different.
Will find out about the FDUK and make sure its not on there, this is for MR2s only (excepting a few club members without)

A lot of people are without car currently
Re: Guildford Midnight Run 6: Hot 6 Deutsch Style
Well with notice, I am prepared ot provide leeway for existing members Tim.....
Just had problems when I ran the Guildford meet with people who were no club members.
Trying to maintain control over the meet and keep it safe for all concerned.

I understand, but there is nothing exciting about driving a 105bhp diesel Volvo estate down a windy road
I maybe there, but need to plan cars, work, cash etc

Start & finish point is the same, so rides will be available for some too!

Re: Guildford Midnight Run 6: Hot 6 Deutsch Style
Id offer a lift but my new sub enclosure really does limit the passenger for leg room and over a three hour run they may develop cramp

No worries, but this is a good run.
You won't be going for 3 hours non stop, there will be one or two stops on the way for cigs, red bull, coffee etc (whatever you bring with you).

* cough cough *
Don't worry about being in a MK1, the lanes I got planned will make sure the MK1 is still king.
