Yesh! It makes people who constantly use text talk start to move away from it meaning the search results will work better..
Although it replaces the word for one more readable it still holds the standard word that they used in the database so the search feature wont search that thread correctly, so making it red makes them realise they have done something wrong and hopefully next time they use the correct wording

ill just get on a junction further north than planned, no big deal
Sounds good, do you know if there's any speedbumps though? Hopefully a few will be coming down from manchester etc so may be able to make the convoy a bit bigger.

#35: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 11:32 am ---- Personally I would have thought m6 if you are coming from central manchester then you can stay on the motorway nearly the whole way but it's up to you. Yeah no problem there's should be an easy one we can get to.
There must be more from manc I swear half the people I talk to from here are from there.

Want to convoy then? can meet up after junction 5 of the M25 if you can stand cruising all the way up!
#37: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Jayde, Location: BrightonPosted: Sat Mar 05, 2011 10:57 am ---- @ Dillion
Clacket Lane service ? J 5- 6..?
If so, sounds fine to me!
What times you thinking?
Has a meet time & place been decided for everyone to join up yet?
#38: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Dillon, Location: KentPosted: Sat Mar 05, 2011 11:09 am ---- Jayde Clacketts is between junct 5/6 Slightly the wrong way but thinking about it there really isn't any where else before the tunnel to meet. The place and time have been set just not announced Mikey will be doing that in due course, would mean being at clacketts for around 6.15/6.30
#39: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Jayde, Location: BrightonPosted: Sat Mar 05, 2011 11:24 am ---- I knew that! I'll get there in my round about way!
Think you're probably better off just giving me a postcode, so I can put it in a drive like a zombie for the first few hours, until I get to you!
#40: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Dillon, Location: KentPosted: Sat Mar 05, 2011 11:51 am ---- Post code for Clacketts is TN16 2ER, I will have to think if there is a sneaky way into the the anti clockwise services.
#41: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Jayde, Location: BrightonPosted: Sat Mar 05, 2011 12:02 pm ---- Well if it's going to be a pain in the backside, you pick the route and meet and I'll just make sure I'm there!!
#42: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Dillon, Location: KentPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 7:53 am ---- Hmm there aren't any places that spring to mind that would be good to meet at this looks like the best place, plus there will be coffee
#43: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Jayde, Location: BrightonPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 8:25 am ---- So TN16 2ER Clacketts ??
This is the route the AA planner gave me Directions
(haven't compared that to the route my satnav gives yet)
Not sure if that's roughly the route you'd be taking or something completely different?
But like I said, I'm happy to just go with what is easiest as I don't want to put your journey out and be a pain!
#44: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Dillon, Location: KentPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 9:19 am ---- Well going that way will take me about 2 mins more than going via the Dartford tunnel but it's £1.50 cheaper :D, not many places to stop that way either unless you know of one?
#45: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 12:30 pm ---- I'll be on the M6 from junction 10 (Walsall), then joing M1

How does this sound
meet me at hilton park services - 5:25 - leave at 5:35
25 - 30 minute drive (ish)
meet andrewxps at corley services 6:00 - leave at 6:10
55 minute drive (ish) to the meet location
alternatively get a bit longer sleep and just meet there lol
#55: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Tue Mar 08, 2011 4:52 pm ---- That would be awesome
Though to get there on time I would have to be out the house at 4 45 and Im fine with this, but Im going to have a think with my +1 about travelling down the night before or not. If im travelling down the morning Im definately up for corley services.
#56: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Spatt, Location: ManchesterPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:53 am ---- hi everyone, im coming down from manchester, does anyone wanna meet me around that area Andrewxps maybe ??

i think everyones gonna b worried about getting there +1 outa bed in the morning at the moment, im gonna drag my mate out with my car if i have too
where you traveling from Harry ? what time you leaving in the morning?
#62: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 7:08 am ---- I'm coming from stafford bang on the m6.
I'm ok for meeting at stafford an earlier service still, just the complicated it gets the more chance of it messing up and not being there on time yeah my +1 is concerning me, more likely to be +2 or even 3 as well.
If we go by kersh's time planning to meet at hilton for 5.25 it should take around another 35-40 mins to get to hilton so we could meet at stafford at 4:50-5:00?
I just had a look and both services around stafford and both are north so unable to meet there and the closest one south is actually hilton. However if you get off at junction 13 (stafford south) there is a place called catch corner literally right next to the junction. Has travel lodges etc so we could meet there and get back on the motorway?
If you go on google maps and put in catch corner stafford it should come up, it's actually next to acton trussel. If not I can get some images.
Let me know if that sounds ok for you, otherwise I can't think of anything else apart from hilton.
#63: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Spatt, Location: ManchesterPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 7:33 am ---- ok sounds good. i dont mind poping off at stafford i will pm you my mobile and you text me if your running late or whatever, also i can keep intouch with you during the morning
if not plan b is meet with Kersh at hilton for tea and cookies then go with the flow
anyone els joining the train down the M6??
#64: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Kersh, Location: Bridgnorth, Nr WolverhamptonPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 7:37 am ---- i love cookies! andrewxps is meeting us at corley but other than that i dont think so, not yet anyways
#65: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 9:30 am ---- Hotels seem to be roughly £60 a room for the night, and even if I travel down the night before it would still mean waking up at 6, so for the sake of an extra hour and a half I'm wondering if £60 is worth it lol
I'd be up for Corley if I'm travelling that day, but I'm alright with any changes that get made as long as its past walsall

#67: Re: FAST SHOW 2011 - Convoy planner Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 10:19 am ---- The plan is coming together

Queues at the fast show start at about 6am mate, last year we missed the big part of it by going that bit later, 7-8 at the gates will be crammed.
Remember gates open at 8am - Just think how many people and cars are going to be qued outside waiting to get in
Unless you get there stupidly early or that bit later than most groups you're in for a long wait.

Yeah that sounds right, just set the clocks forward before you go to bed and work on those hours.
Nah it's good, I will be there for 5 definately, it's just difficult it being so early and possibly having 3 passengers but I will make them

(45 mins extra travel y0!)
but thinking about it there really isn't any where else before the tunnel to meet. The place and time have been set just not announced Mikey will be doing that in due course, would mean being at clacketts for around 6.15/6.30
I'll get there in my round about way!
this looks like the best place, plus there will be coffee 
Can you pass through oxford and join us lol
