Default Incarnation

In England for a few days and took the Subaru to Brighton marina. Surprised to find thousands of performance cars parked along the sea-front. Something called incarnation organised partly, I think, by Ace Cafe. Nice mix of cars,at least 50 Subaru's. Anybody else there?

I hope you enjoyed our 3rd World road surfaces while here.
Every time I go out at the weekend I have to walk round the car to check my wheels are still round.

Hi Scott,the condition of the roads is unbelievable. The worst I have ever seen, even on main roads there are large,deep holes which you are obliged to swerve around.

I've done Incarnation a few times down on Madeira Drive but didn't go this year as the scoob is sorned and tucked away still.

It's not bad as a free event, gets a lot of nice cars down there but unfortunately a lot of chav rubbish with thumping subwoofers too. If you can ignore that, its a good place for some free parking on Brighton seafront - when else can you do that these days!?

I visited pakistan about 4 years ago. There is pretty much a single road which travels from Islamabad to the family village in the Pakistani half of Kashmir. Its about a 5 hour drive and mostly single lane "B road" once you leave the capital behind.

Theres a lot to see on this road, mountains, rivers, bridges, the odd Armoured Personell Carrier at a few military checkpoints... but guess what there isnt... potholes .... at least there wasnt when I last saw it!

Thats right... the tiny winding road leading to the middle of no where is freshly tarmaced up to the entrance of our old village.

Meanwhile the M40 has potholes big enough to throw you out your lane. Shambles !
