With that many cars, how spirited does the driving get? Or is it just a hasty procession through the back roads.

When ever I go on runs with 20 or more cars, it gets pretty congested and you dont really get a chance to go to quick, as you are driving with many people whose skills are unknown.

But looked like a bast.

Thnks for posting it up.
It got quite spirited with speeds in the 3-digit zones on the better 'smooth' surfaced roads The Elise doesn't pull so well at those speeds, but it managed to keep up and have fun Plenty of wheel spins and slides at junctions etc, all proper behaviour! And of course, since none of the cars on the run are particularly quiet (the Elise being the loudest i've ever heard which helps) when you go down echoey roads, especially past Goodwood, the noise is great!!

Majority of it was just higher driving speeds for the pleasure of it! Few people went the wrong way as invariably the lines gets broken by slower regular cars... but all made it too the end with smiles on our faces and in 1 piece
