Right judging by the other thread there's only really 1 meeting point needed so I've gone for Keele Services (southbound) that way it shouldn't be out of anybodies way 
So proper details...
Meeting point: Keele Services, M6 southbound, between j16 and j15
Time: Meeting at 5:15 to be leaving at 5:30
I won't be involved in this convoy, I'm going down on Saturday so it'd be a good idea for all who are going to be involved to post in here and also swap phone numbers so people can be contacted incase of running late, oversleeping, alarms not going off etc. so the convoy isn't held up
I'll be keeping an eye on this thread so if anyone has any questions just post em up and I'll get onto 'em when I'm about, if there aren't any then drive safe and I'll see you at the show

I didn't know anything had been sorted. I said Keele because I wasn't sure where you'd be picking Tom up from.
What sort of pace are you looking at for the drive down? Google shows 2 hours from Sandbach to Silverstone which would be 8.15 plus traffic round there would be bad by that time, I planned 5.15 so that you should be to the stand by 8 giving us chance to get the stand sorted in good time

I'll speak to Adam again, so we need to be there for 8? Think Ian said 7 in the other thread

The gates usually open at 7 iirc so it's just as close to then as you can really, I just tried to plan it so it wouldn't be any later 8, obviously you can only plan so much and I know Adam isn't really a Sunday driver so the 2 hours from Sandbach to Silverstone was likely to be cut down a bit anyway

Shouldn't be a problem, if so spit your dummy out and tell them to stick it cos you're walking home
