Hi,
South East will be holding their Feb Meet at Santa Pod Raceway in Northamptonshire. Other regions have been invited and so we should have the following turning up:
East Midlands
South Central
Sunday 11th is a Run What You Brung meet, which means you can turn up and race your up the strip and get it timed/flammed (weather permitting).
If you don't fancy racing your car then don't let that scare you off, for people who arent racing they can walk around the grounds looking at the fine examples of cars lining up to race up the strip. There will be the usual catering of various meats and hot drinks, there is a stand where you can sit and watch/video the cars racing up all day! And lets not forget the CS BANTER! Wagon which will be in full effect.

You could either go up the A1 or M1 from the M25. A1 junction comes before the M1 from Dartford way on the M25 so could be quicker going that way. In which case you would pass me 
Quite a few people on the list will be coming round the M25 from Dartford way, you should all come up the A1 so we can convoy

Just checked multimap and from dartford to podington using the M1 is 93.7 miles. Using the A1 is 96.4 miles. So 3 miles in it
