ok guys, as its less that two weeks to go i thought id get the ball rolling to see whos going and who wants to convoy up/back.
initial meeting place will be the beefeater at marsh mills.
unsure on a time at the moment but i will update this post accordingly.
if any of you guys from further up want to meet us on the way then just say where would be good to meet.
not sure if we will be leaving early enough to catch the bristol guys before they leave but i will check with them before the time comes.

route will be:
beefeater
a38/m5 to j with the m4
m4 to j(whatever it is, lol)
follow the signs and the rest of the cars to castle combe

we can meet anyone on that route :)

so, names and meeting place please.

1. mammoth - beefeater

Wolfe

I might be leaving at 5 now because i might do the 9 oclock briefing and have a track session at 11, but if i don't go early i will be at beefeater by 7.

nice pics the guy in the blue 32 was really good imho, didn't actually like the wide bodied r33, also prefered the redline skyline in the gulf colours!!!!

wish i'd got to meet some of the local lads but sadly never around when i was so i'll have to come to a local meet!:thumbs:

Garysx
20-05-2006, 21:34

Channie
20-05-2006, 22:49
Yeah sorry didnt meet any new peeps from the sxoc, parked my car on the stand and spent the day elsewhere! Slidder come along to a local one... our photo collection of 200's in the sarf will get bigger!
Nice pics steve... Sory to hear about the wheels bud... didnt quite understand the post??? Did you catch them and take photos of how you dealt wit the situation???? :whip:

Clouder_sx
20-05-2006, 23:54
Steve sorry to hear about your wheel... i saw a guy with a very blooded face at about 3:30.. was that the result!?? Did you get it back ok?

Found the bunch of 200s eventually, but noone was by cars, saw a few people chatting but i felt a little silly without a car, if you understant, makes it a bit hard. As soon as i get one i will be heading straight to a meet (will convoy to exeter) to get to know you guys, cant wait! :)

Scougar
21-05-2006, 01:24
Yeah we passed a guy with with short dark hair and blood all over his face (the other guy had unruly curly hair).. the guy with blood kept saying 'sorry...*mutter mutter*' to his mate as we passed.

We did wander over and look at all the sx's but you guys wouldn't know me from adam :rolleyes: Really liked the s14a with version select kit and wider front arches in black :) Went really nice together. Are you gonna get a rear bumper or stay with spats eh? :P

Glad i decided not to take my car on track near end of day, as i didn't have track insurance, and saw a few nicely dented motors today :smash:

Oh Channie... Wheels first chap :)

"What we've got here is failure to
communicate.
Some men you just can't reach...
So, you get what we had here last week,
which is the way he wants it!
Well, he gets it!
N' I don't like it any more than you men."

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars

you get the idea

well yeh these two guys walked off with one of the wheels that were by my car while we were all by the pits. we got back and a few people pointed us in the right direction and we caught up with them round the other side by the skid pan, me my dad about 5 marshals and 5 of my mates were running after them looking for them, after the long run it was me at the front and a marshal in a landrover, everyone else was a while behind so me and the marshal gave them both a good kicking then made the c**ts carry the wheel back to my car in shame past all the people that saw the chase.

was a good day. loved the driftworks demo too and some quick cars on the track, one of my favorite was the black ae86.

...And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight...

Channie

...Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart

A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart...
