come on people - wheres the 200/300/400/700/900 mob!!
If you come down the A17, watch for the speed cameras, they are everywhere!! I love the signs saying that its a dangerous road, just an excuse for not improving the damn thing!!
A14 has quite a few cameras too, especially the Huntingdon/Cambridge section, a few through the Nottinghamshire bit too.
The camera on the Newmarket bypass, northbound, just after the A14 amd A11 merge has been out of action for some time now, but there are new ones on the newmarket to Cambridge section of the A14.

I am hoping to bring 'Bertha' my 240 if the front box holds together long enough (I must get round to getting a new front pipe!!)

Alec,

There is only one near Cambridge, this is westbound immediately before the A1303/B1102 turnoff - went in a couple of months back........

Damn Des - we went for a run up to Hunstanton for some pics - I guess we pressumed everyone was with us tho your absence was noticed in the pics!

Anyway, was a really good day, thanks to all those that turned up, especially those from the VOC, it was really nice to have a V90 and 240 to poke around with along side all the fwd cars!

I think there were 16 in all, here are the highlights Hope to more of you next time!
