Supercharged, 0-60-in-seconds, faster than a speeding bullet engines tend to suck down petrol at motorway speeds, don't they, Stig? Much better to take a leisurely drive there (at least slower than 88MPH!) and save your pocket change for the Ring!

Me and Joe got lost for about an hourin France, so we nailed it trying to catch up with everyone!

'Everyone' must have pulled into some services because we made to the hotel before everyone else. All that foot-to-the-floor action cost me a tank of fuel :thumbsup:

But it was quite amusing when all you could hear over the radios was;

"Wheres bounce going??"

"oh well im sure he'll pull in for fuel or something"

Then we get to the hotel, and there stands partyboy himself with a big.....grin on his face lol saying
"we almost had a crash, i forgot we were driving on the wrong side of the road and this car was heading straight towards me"

Lol

LMAO!

Oh yea, I forgot about that. The nice French lady pointed to the other side of the road. I thought she was loopy for driving head-on towards me just to point!
