Daz Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Just been to Earls Court to see Insurance_Jon off on the mammoth trip to Budapest via Brussels and Prague. I've uploaded the pics here It was good to see the Met's finest there and we had a good friendly chat with them. Nice to see the human face of traffic cops This one was a huge Audi nut. They've not arrested Jon yet And Cannonball wouldn't be Cannonball without some totty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 So which mad bastard's doing the Cannonball in an Ariel Atom then?!

P_G Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Daz, you didn't get enough pics of the lasses! Did you spot a red F430 there by chance, didn't see it in your pics? Mind you, doesn't look like they managed to get all the cars out front in the main area anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I'm very upset that they're all going and I'm not. Very upset indeed. Quite a few Audis there though, eh (including what appears to be Jon's RS 4)? Shame there weren't one or two more.

Daz Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Nope Jon's old RS4 saloon is going, he sold it to a mate of his, and Jon is going in his S8. (It was his RS4 cab that was nicked) And there were 3 more RS4 saloons, 1 Blue, 1 Red and another Black one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Just spoke with Jon, all going well and just about to arrive in Brussels. They left Earls Court at approx 11:30 this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 I got a text from my mate doing the Cannonball at just before 7.30, last out of Earls Court and just done the 410 miles to Brussels from the Eurotunnel terminal plus a few extra because he got lost! Not bad going though since they only got on the Chunnel at around 2.30pm Aren't Ferrari's crap, no sat nav! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted September 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 I've just spoken to Jon. They're nearly in Prague. He's been banned from driving in Germany for 2 months, he was caught doing 240kph in a 100khp limit 3 times. Ooops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 No more trips to the ring for him this year then! I also got a text from the guy I know doing the Cannonball doing 120mph through the streets of Brussels this morning racing a 996 Turbo and tailed by some bloke from Emmerdale in his Evo! No fines yet though, I'll get an update later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P_G Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Well the Cannonball is officially finsished, our M.D. came 27th and no speeding tickets, no bans, nothing. Sounds a bit tame nowadays if you ask me.... Suffice to say they are all out on a huge bender now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
