Got back from this on sunday, i have to say it was an absolute hoot.
No silly driving, just amazing roads, fantastic scenery and a great bunch of guys.

really well organised, by a couple of pure car/driving enthusiasts.
we made friends everywhere we went.

a couple of photo's to show you what i mean.

Bachi - I bet that must have been an awesome experience, esp with the Ferrari!

Look forward to more photos of your trip!

thats the laerdal tunnel 26.5 km long
the longest tunnel in the world.

it has 3 large caverns (in blue) to break up the journey
we managed to get 20 cars parked around the cavern........

Is it still Gareth(?) that organises these? I met a guy in an Elise in Bromley one night about a year ago, the car was all stickered up. He gave me a flyer for that years event, I was gonna go but couldn't get the time off work.

Phase, sorry mate i missed your post.
the guy who drives the Elise is Darren (Gruffy)

there's more to it than the tours, we have a night at the Ace cafe every month and a few other car related events too.
