Frank I arrive in LA on the 21st. You can pick me up from LAX in your boat if you like. 
Are you around on Sunday 22nd?
Dude this time we gotta get togetherā¦ Iāll make a point of it, donāt bring any rain.
Rain cancelled!!
I have a pretty busy week, but Sunday is free until the evening. Iām all yours!!
Cool we can do the usual Sunday morning poser car gathering and then hit the twistiesā¦
Iāve got to try and get there if Frankās a comin!
When is the Exiges.com route66 tour going to be arranged so we can return the gesture?
Always fancied putting the Exige in a container bound for the East coast and driving across the country.
Recently watched the Charlie Boorman programme on Canada so thatās another idea as well!
Hey guys it looks as though the trip over is not in the stars at this time for Toni and myselfā¦
Tryin to put all the travel from London to the track, to Lotus and back to London is a pain in the ass and I canāt convince her sheās gonna love drivin across the UK on the wrong side of the road in the rain in a rental the size of a shoebox as the trip is more travel than visitā¦
Yeah I know this sucks since I was really wanting to meet you chuckle heads face to faceā¦So the best I can say now is come on over to sunny LA. and weāll go for a sail and a canyon cruise in the rocket pigā¦The roads are dry and the beer is cold.
Man up, big boy, whoās the boss in Bumfuck CA ?
Hey, thatās not what weād hoped for. Iād hoped to be given a character reading face-to-Face. Surely, a man of your calibre can sort out a travel itinerary? (At worst, leave Mrs Frank at home in Bumf***.CA - surely sheād have fun home alone?)
Dudes Iām still tryin but the trip was turnin into all about me and nothing she is intoā¦ She wanted a nice train trip in a first class car but it seemed to turn into a boxcar with wet sheepā¦ I thought you guys had this rail travel down to a scienceā¦?
Mate, I live 20mins from Heathrow Airport. Happy to pick you and your good lady up and take you to a hotel in town where you can get a decent motor delivered,ā¦heh you could even hire a Lotus (not a 680whp one though ). Thereās a group of us travelling up to Wales from London and weāll happy to take you (or both of you) up to Wales as thereās likely to be at least four of and we could chuck all the bags/lids in the cars without passengers.
Where thereās a willā¦
I should be a travel agent :
- Fly into London, stay somewhere swanky.
- 1st Class Train London Euston to Chester
- Stay in Chester its quite errr āQuaintā
- Choose your vehicle from this list.
- Leisurely drive in chosen vehicle across Snowdonia to see yer mates on Anglesey.
- Return to car to Chester and train back to London back to swanky hotel.
- 1st Class Train to Norwich - cab it to Hethel then back to London.
- Fly home
Happy days,ā¦seems like a great trip to me.
With a pause at Dudlaay for a tour of JSR and a curry night at Lyeā¦
Has anyone seen the Bookatrack website recently ?
I know 5 grand is crazy money, I know we couldnt drive āourā cars around Califonia ( or could we ? ) but you can always dream ā¦
Frank ā¦ Iām in Orlando on the 5th and Iām getting a plane into Manchester arriving 6th morning ā¦ it aint so difficult
Sort it out Frank!!!
Frank - this is what you want
add this onto the end of Bens suggested itinerary. If you two like trains, Toni will love the trip.

Known about this a few weeks now, very interested indeed. I have family in San Fran works for me on an epic scale! My car in Cali 
yeah always wanted to drive 'guna seca
5k is about the same as a pair of first class tickets to the US, so against that itās good value.
how do the cars get there, boat? Fly?
Cheapest way so I have been told is dock drop off and collectionā¦
Some of the Caterham7 boys did a similar US trip a couple of years ago I think.
