A509 to Santa Pod road

Post Mon Oct 02, 2006 7:47 pm

Anyone had a play on the way?

That road was fantastic, must have hit 80 a couple of times. Good sighting, you could see if there was anything coming for miles and no side roads, they were empty by the time I arrived and got my foot down good and proper.

God I love roads like that its why I sorted my suspension. Respect to the guys and gals on the strip but that was the most fun I have had in my car for a while

With my old tyres on, a mate had a GPS in my car and at 80 he was reading 71 but with fresh tyres on its probably nearer 75 as most speedo under read.

Good fun though

Now you have edited your title so we are no longer talking about the A509 itself then my piss taking of you getting a boner at touching 80 doesn't really make sense i'll agree. Now i know you mean the smaller twisty road i can see where your coming from lol

If we're talking about the same road, I do recall annoying an E36 M3 by not allowing him to lose me in my diesel Range Rover....

Blimey, could he *not* drive.

Its the bit where you turn off the A509 on the way to Santa Pod and it gets a bit country, lots of fields couple of trees and a nice twistie bit of road

Simon, Oz, Kos and I went this way, but some loser in a 4pot shed couldn't keep up, so we had to slow down and wait.

A509 is the best thing about santa pod. The racing is shit, but the drive home is nice..

i think spadge is not impressed he is a speednutter

, 150+mph would only slightly impress him

Post Tue Oct 03, 2006 9:29 pm

Theo i think that tosser in his 4.8iS X5 who drove like a cretin spoiled that road somewhat!

Read the title and the thread

. Im refering to the little twisting road you take when you turn OFF the A506 until you reach the Santa Pod gates

we were tempted to try this in the shogun but decided the trailer wouldn't have been so chuffed!

Don't get me wrong, it handles like a worn bath sponge. But the trusty M51 had me breathing down his neck all the same
