Road trip challange ideas

[Chris.W]

Hi ho peeps,

I'm looking for funny challenges to do on a road trip, handed over in little envelopes at each fuel stop ala top gear. I have a couple ideas but have drawn a blank on what else to do.
Now, I'm after things that are not gona end up with us in Jail or deported

The road trip in question is from Lossiemouth in the N.E. of Scotland to the Nurburgring, via an overnight stop at Ashford, Kent. There are gona be around 15 of us in approx 7 different cars. Not all of us are starting at the same location, we will be joined by people further south, en route.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Blue.

One of the 'challenges' could be, 'Now you must drive 50MPH to the nearest petrol station' can imagine eager in each attending driver eyes looking for next fuel station

you could do a fuel economy run from one services to the a designated second services. to see who can use the least fuel. it is really hard to drive a quick car economically. just don't make them too far apart maybe 30miles.

you could play ticky volvo with prizes. let me explain, we played this as a family to keep the kids entertained.
basically you have spot volvo's and the one the spot them first gets the points.

so you change it a bit and play ticky volvo with any make of car you choose but you have to take a picture of it to get the point, the one car with the most point between services gets a prize of your making. maybe the loosing cars have to stump up to by the wilnning car ice cream or coffe or something like that, nothing to expensive.

or the car that can do the most miles between service, e.g. doing lots of lean changing, taking the outside lane on a curve road ect, then you could do the same for the shortest distance between services.
just take everybodies odometer reading before they set off from the services and then when they arrive at the next services.

or another one could be pair up with another car a get as many differnet makes and models of car in a picture with the other car in you team. you basically will have to phone the other car and get them to drive next to the car you want to photograph and take the picture. just do stuff like ford mondeo, fored fiesta, handa accord, not different sub models like 1.6 .13 tdci ST, just the make and model, maybe you could give extra points for differnt mk's say you get a ford mondeo mk1, mk2, mk3, you get a bonus points for multi mk's 1 point for the first 3 point for the second one and 5 points for the third, and so on.

just a thought.

We tried something similar a few years ago as we drove through switzerland/italy. Challenge was to get a photo of a car for each letter of the alphabet.

for example Mitsubishi Galant could be either M or G etc,
