Recent update from the OPs link

FOR NOW WITH A NEW VENUE ARRANGED ZIPPY HAS DECIDED TO PUT A CAP ON THE NUMBERS TO 500 CARS UNTIL THE SIZE OF THE LAND IS CONFIRMED

Can you all please post this on all relevant sites please.


and then

With all due respect, this can't be capped. This has gone viral and 500 has already been hit. The car community has come together as one to make this boys dream come true. This is going to snowball into an event that I can see making national news...
It will be impossible to cap due to the nature of the event and the reason behind it... Nothin has ever bought a community together this fast...

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family

Also do we recon its worth contacting supercar clubs around the uk with a link? Most of there forums are completely shut down for obvious reasons but they do have contact pages.

As so,

This is an enquiry e-mail via http://www.lamborghiniclub.co.uk/ from:
Sam Marriott <sammarriott@live.com>

Essentially this is flying around the web at the moment and i'm taking it upon myself to email the supercar clubs of the UK to make the event truly magical, here is the original forum thread...

Nice one... I think this is now currently without a suitable venue...  I foresee road closures!

The venue changed to an industrial estate, didn't think numbers was an issue now?
