Matty?

Dont know if your up for it or if your staying in the area the night before. But there are a load of us meeting at about 8:15-8:30 at Tescos in Bury St. Edmunds if you want to convoy with us from there. If your coming from the Midlands you will have to pass right by it.

Let me know

I doubt you will be going thru Bury on the way to Ipswich as its a long way round. But if your brother is coming from the middle bit he will not really have any choice but to go thru there. He is welcome to join up with us there and follow us to Ipswich Tesco.

Tell him he needs to be at Bury Tesco for 8:15-8:30 and its the Bury Central turn off. He shouldnt miss it there is a gigantic sugar beet factory next to the juction :)

Better make sure he makes himself known tho, lol

Simon what time are you leaving dav? & what way you going ? A14? :p :)

Simon

13-03-2003, 08:39

Im actually leaving Dav on friday night (no im not a slow driver, lol) But my parents live 3 miles from Bury so im gonna spend the weekend there. Are you coming?

Oh and yeah it would be the A45 to Thrapston and then A14 :D you know you have to come now you have shown interest, lol

13-03-2003, 08:44

I want to go, i live @ junction 10 of the a14 anyway. do you know if there are anyone else going this way from here

Simon

13-03-2003, 08:50

I dont know if there is or not i only found out about it the other day. Maybe put a post up asking.

Junction 10?? Which one is that? I dont know the jusction numbers on the A14

13-03-2003, 08:52

Burton latimer, bedford,weetabix :) :) can i pay on the day to spec :) i'm to lazy to do a search ;) :D

Simon

13-03-2003, 08:57

I hope so because i havent paid anything up front and im thinking about running. Oh well shall see on the day.

Well come along mate your only about an hour away from Bury (maybe less early sunday morning) just be careful of the scurge of cameras between Huntingdon and Cambridge

Simon

13-03-2003, 09:53

Why dont you take it for a run mate?

MattyGee

13-03-2003, 18:08

yeah he says hes def up for meeting up and having a mini convoy on the way up there :)

Simon

13-03-2003, 19:31

Right i'll try and put a bit of clarity on this.

Anyone coming from the Midlands has to pass through Bury St Edmunds on there way to Ipswich.

A load of us from Bury are meeting up at Tesco's in Bury before we set off to meet everyone else at Tesco's in Ipswich.

If your going to try and get to Ipswich for 9am you will probably be driving past us meeting up in Bury at about 8:30 and we just wondered as Tesco's in Bury is literally next to the A14 you might like to convoy with us to Ipswich Tesco's.......(Phew):D

Is that any clearer???

If not and you fancy a bit of a longer convoy

Give me a call on : 07901555826

Cheers

Simon :)

thanks simon i getcha now :)
right now i know which tesco's im on about ill be meeting you guys at the ipswitch one with everyone else.

Simon

13-03-2003, 19:43

Good im glad thats clear. Would have been easier if one was a Sainsbury's, lol

Whats your bro doing then?

So when do you get your new cams put in?

Oh and Mark what you doing now?

Simon

MattyGee

13-03-2003, 19:51

tesco's are gonna be wondering how come their car parks are the performance cars meeting place of choice :D
my bro is meeting up with mark after that i dunno what their plan is.
if all goes well (and i praying it does) i should be in a position to get my lovley dust covered (cos theyve been in my bedroom so long) cams fitted sometime in april - yeay! :)
then ive got a month of running in to do (well 1000-1500 miles, but i do about 1200 a month so shouldnt take too long )
i cant wait to get them fitted and run in and stuff , i just hope that it is the answer to my lack of power (i guess with my fbu and decat full 3" stainless zorts i should be getting around 220 bhp at the fly ? not 156 at the wheels :( )
i need them fitted i need them fitted i need them fitted .... :)

Simon

13-03-2003, 20:22

I wish i could afford a few more mods :(

So have you already paid for the TSC? Or are you paying on the day?

Me being totally slow didnt realise about it till a couple of days ago and havent sent a cheque or anything so i hope its possible to pay on the door for a run or atleast to spectate. You got any ideas?

errrrrrrm not sure now. jacko is staying @ ours on sat night & we meeting little gee :)
i tried to send yr mob a mess but got failed twice :(

MattyGee

13-03-2003, 22:22

based on what happened when i went to TSC2 im pretty sure you can pay on the day to both run and spectate, you could always PM Richie to make 100% sure tho. I sent my cheque for both me and my bro to run a couple of weeks ago.

mark, im sure i must be probably getting 227bhp then ;) , i guess at 220 but i suppose it could be more (235+???), ill only find out once my cams are in and run in and stuff, ill have to get it RR'ed again in may/june time i guess, by then ill have my apexi air filter and maybe even an apexi SFAC if i feel flush :)

13-03-2003, 22:28

What time is yr bro passing:confused:

MattyGee

13-03-2003, 22:32

funny you should ask that , he just asked me what time you want him round yours :)
my bro (ChrisGee, altho he dont mind being called little Gee :D )
is up for leaving early to meet up with the rest of the runners/spectators at the ipswich tesco's (which from the thread on it in general section seems everyone is meeting there at about 9am) so how long do you think it will take from your place to there really mate?

13-03-2003, 23:02

Hiya Chris (littlegee) :D

Welcome

Your route should be easy just Get on the M6 East and I basically turns into the A14 just after Junction 1 (Rugby)

Once on the A14 you just need to follow signs for Cambridge/Felixstowe. Ie. just keep going east.

I guess your meeting up with Mark at somepoint and then going on from there

It bloody easy mate

Guys

Thanks for the welcome!

Im gonna try and leave my house in Nuneaton at 6:30AM thus I should get onto the A14 for about 7am ish..

Mark, where on the A14 do you wanna meet??

From getting onto the A14 @ 7am we can get to the Tescos in Bury St. Edmunds for 8:15-30ish without having to breach the national speed limts :rolleyes:

Meet up with everyone else, then continue east to the Tescos in ipswitch to meet everyone else :)

As Hannibal Smith always said
"I love it when a plan comes together!"

Jacko

14-03-2003, 18:56

Matty, you running on tsc day ? that is after you've ragged the engine on the sca rollers, and before you've ragged it on bromsgrove rollers.

MattyGee

That's 'cos you ignored me when I waved at you as you arrived :mad:

Only joking, mate :D Thought I saw you drive in - then didn't see you again for the rest of the day, so decided I'd hallucinated it! Sorry I missed you as well :o but if the only time I passed you was when I was in suffolk1's car then I was prolly still coming down from the exhileration of travelling at high speeds for the first time in my life lol :D:D
