I'm Back!!! Who's up for Lily Pons??? - LotusTalk

bull30 · 06-02-2009, 05:41 PM

Well it's only been 14 days since they replaced my right knee and I drove the Blue Meanie this evening...

I can't tell you how much I missed driving...

So, who's up for Lily Pons this Sunday?

rcollum · 06-02-2009, 05:43 PM

I didn't pre-register, because we went to LOG, but I think I'll be there.

Welcome back Bull! Great to see you recovering.

What's Lily Pons?

IsellLotus · 06-02-2009, 05:57 PM

Lily Pons:

The Original British Car Show 6/7/2009

It'll be the biggest British Car Day in the region this year.

Welcome back Ken!
I had a charter on Sunday with a Porsche pal of yours!

Anyway, I am planning on driving up and entering the Elise in the show. I might bring along my MINI Cooper S as well. We'll see.

Welcome back Bull

Guld · 06-02-2009, 06:59 PM

Ken, that's gotta be love! ...and good to hear about your speedy recovery. We'll also try to make it Sunday.

Uncle Sam · 06-02-2009, 07:14 PM

I'm in for this.

DWilde · 06-02-2009, 07:26 PM

Glad to hear you're back on the road. I'm guessing a Lotus can in fact be part of PT. Not only physically but mentally! I'm out of town this weekend but hope you enjoy your time behind the wheel and look forward to another drive.

Scrumpot · 06-02-2009, 08:20 PM

Trevor & I will be there. WELCOME BACK KEN! Glad to hear the procedure apparently, went so well!

Look forward to seeing you there!

Is something wrong with me in the fact that I read that as "little ponys"?

ZAMMY1 · 06-03-2009, 04:48 AM

lily pons was an opera style singer of long ago.
that's what piqued my interest.

exlondoner · 06-03-2009, 08:30 AM

What time is everyone headed there. I just took delivery of my Exige last week and have only driven it once so far lol.

This will be my first out of London Brit event, anyone else leaving from Rockville? Would be great to meet some new faces for the first time.

I'm leaving from rockville, i'll probably take 28 down. No point in taking 270 because wheres the fun in that. That is if no one is planning a much more fun drive,

.

If you want, we can meet somewhere on the pike and just "cruise"

infernoflo · 06-03-2009, 06:32 PM

welcome back, glad to hear everything's cool! won't be able to make it, i got a gokarting group @ AllSport GP!

bull30 · 06-04-2009, 06:39 AM

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend at the show. Let's make this one of the best Lotus turnouts of the year.

I plan on getting there early around 7:30am.

Maggie · 06-04-2009, 07:24 AM

I'm tentatively there. Almost certainly not at 7:30 AM though! Anyone want to drive out from the Columbia area?
