I have had one or two pm's today that have concerned me, below is an example
Hi mate
sorry if I sound like an old fuddy duddy, but wasnt sure if people will be racing on the day as looking at the posts seems to be whos faster than who or can I overtake kinda talk... problem is:
1.) Im not a great driver and was going to enjoy just cruising with the rest of the gang not really trying to race everyone as not my idea of fun
2.) Safety of my girlfriend is paramount and dont want to put her life at risk.
Is it possible those who want to race to identify themselves so that I can be far away from them as possible..
Really hope I dont sound like a party pooper mate, just not my idea of fun

Firstly this is more of a social meet but in our cars driving on beautiful welsh roads. We are effectively showing of our wares to each other and to the general public. The drive in Wales is nothing more than a pleasure cruise.
Safety is of paramount importance on the day, everybody attending will be expected to drive safely. There will be strictly NO RACING between cars, if there is racing and dangerous driving, these members will be asked to leave the drive. My experience of the Wales drives have always been good with no incidents up to yet, though there were a few close shaves last year.
The convoy generally moves along at a reasonable pace any how, there will be no pressure on anyone to go with the flow.
Part of the convoy might move quicker than another part, this is ok. Everyone as the checkpoints contained in the document and enough time as been factored in for each section to be completed in plenty of time.
If anyone wants to overtake that is ok too as long it is done in a safe manner that dangers NO ONE. A drivers talk will be given at Chester services on do's and dont's before the drive.
I dont want to be a party pooper but i really want everyone to enjoy the Wales drive out on May 11th but most of all i want a safe one.
And at the end of the day i want to see lots of smiles after a good day out
