Bit of a long shot, but would make an epic photo shoot and be great part of a meet. How about trying to organise a tour of the Toyota plant at Burnaston on the A38/A50? There is a member on here that definitely used to work there. No idea if it's possible or not - just a wacky idea I've just had!

If it could be pulled off and be part of a run itinerary - the East Midlands epic road trip :notworthy:

Hello all :)
Are any of the ideas submitted so far being organised this side of Christmas or is the East Midlands chapter rolling them out in the New Year?

I used to work there. I can try and make some enquiries if you like.
I know when I was there there was a bit of a waiting list to get a tour.
A few good restaurants around there as well also not too far from the donnington museum.

Not yet. I'll PM Lee and see if I can get some details of someone who works there, and then have a chat with Mark about some good roads and pubs for a bite to eat. Let's plan for early March if we can ...
