Jack Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 ARMOUR & EMBARKATION 2012 - OK folks time to start organising next years tank event. We are looking at smashing last years event by turning this into a two day tank run - depending on how the phone calls and meetings go - we could be in for one hell of a day on the Sunday. If I can manage to pull a rabbit out of the hat we may be off to ******th on the Sunday - WOW! - start saving up fuel money - we will be covering some miles :coffee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Scott Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I recon the petrol tank guys ort to consider buying a few shares in Shell !!! where as us Diesel powered Tankers should be a few pounds per mile cheaper to run !!!!! Bring it on Jack , if we are taking Tanks to Dorset , 2 days is far better than 1 , lets go for it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markheliops Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I'll be there - with the Ward Lafrance M1A1 and love trailer. I shall probably bring the Ward up on the Foden. This way I can have a full lift capability as well in case someting can not be towed back - if the worse happens. Markheliops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddy8men Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 32 miles in a cromwell equates to 32 gallons if i don't put my foot down and drive considerately (never). it will cost £220 in juice, i have no doubt that would be the best £220 i ever spent, count me in. the carrier will be there aswell but whoever drives that can pay for their own juice. good show jack eddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajmac Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 The sweet & sour dish was rather good in 2010, anything like that this time around would be great.... trouble was we were always too late for a shout at the desert...which looked rather appetising.
