(and also helps if a pub is involved;) )

Simon
20-03-2003, 15:41

Ditto on the close to cov thingy... Just a thought a pub by me holds classic and sports car meets on Mondays.. or did at least always used to be a showing of huge power cossies and a few astons and the like... as well as the inevitable nova boys! Anyway will check if its still going and post back

Leicester ? every other tue's :confused:
just an idea

Simon
24-03-2003, 13:18
Well Cov or Leicester are both good for me :D.

Now who wants to make a decison on this? lol

As i find it difficult to get to the weekend meets sometimes this would be great as Summer is coming up

Jacko
24-03-2003, 13:48
mmm Summer :D :D

I vote for Leicester or Warwick (By Ikle).

Depends what sorta atmosphere we are after - Leicester is very Max Power, Warwick sounds more classy.

Lets go for Warwick ???

Joe - can you still find out if the meet goes on ?

24-03-2003, 14:08
Good point jacko ;) warick it is then :cool: :)

Simon
24-03-2003, 14:47

24-03-2003, 17:04
how about thurs?
(i.e the only eve i can make)






how selfisf:rolleyes:

MattyGee
24-03-2003, 18:11
i cant make tuesdays (college that day so im not home till late ) or mondays (college on tuesday so im always doing last minute assignments :rolleyes: )
wednesday or thursday would be best for me :)

Simon
24-03-2003, 19:14
Ok so we are looking at thursday.

Maybe not this week as it might be too shorter notice for some people.

So what week would be good for people??

Cheers

Simon

MattyGee
24-03-2003, 19:22
i dont mind mate :)
where in warwick are we gonna be aiming to meet up ?
a pub somewhere ?

Simon
24-03-2003, 19:27
Well i was gonna leave that for someone else to suggest as ive never been to Warwick, lol :rolleyes:

Was hoping to convoy with anyone from my direction so we can all get lost together.

You got any suggestions???

Simon

MattyGee
24-03-2003, 19:37
im afraid i only work there so im dont really know of any good suitable pubs .
by suitable i mean, good and safe car park (dont want no theiving scumbags touching our Sx's), and half decent selection of beverages, plus a pool table would be sweet :) (Jacko knows im an ace pool shark type ;) )
Joe, do you have any suggestions for a venue mate ?

Simon
24-03-2003, 19:40
Ok Furry Muff, Well i guess its up to a yocal to suggest a pub.

So when you gonna fit your other gasket then??

Simon

MattyGee
24-03-2003, 19:44
hmmm, well ive been sourcing my other needed bits for my cams today as intend FINALLY getting them fitted in the next 2/3 weeks :D so ill probably leave the remaining turbo gasket till then and that way only have to take it all apart once (hopefully) .
I just gotta be careful not to push to hard on the turbo gasket until i get it sorted, as i dont wanna make it any worse :rolleyes:

Jacko
24-03-2003, 20:37
There are a couple of pubs right by Joes house, but i'm sure he would want to be tea total and drive somewhere ;)

Come on Joe - waiting on you now.

Oh and Yes, Matty is a complete Wiz at pool :rolleyes: :eek: :confused: ;) :D

I wanna try crack on with it this weekend, dont really want it up on ramps too long, so will hopefully have the turbo on by Sunday, Wont bne a fuel pump, ECU, coolant, oil or front pipe on it - but at least the hard work will have been done.

Mark, What are the chances of getting them gaskets to me by Saturday mate ?

If Turbo is on, can I lift then please Matty - and back pleeeaaassseeee, i'll be your bestest friend for ever and ever :D

Lets get somethin set up regular like, or at least a location so we can then just say yes or no, and everyone knows where they are going.

I think we decided on warwick, so if no one has any objections i'll find us a decent place to meet and let you all know ?

Aren't I nice :p :D

No probs mate. Hope bonny scotland was nice.

Now hurry up and find a place as Matty wants to turn up in his nice Astra :rolleyes: lol

Jacko
10-04-2003, 15:21
He picked me up in the Astra on Sunday morning to go help with his turbo, and on the way had just come onto a nice stretch of dual carridgeway, when along comes an old pug 309 diesel with some sorta moulded plastic hanging off the sides, needless to say it was dof awful car.

We proceeded to have a race :)

Either that or we both had to rag the arses of our cars to actually get them to go anywhere.


Well it was neck an neck, pug initially in the lead, but we slowly edged past him. Matty was loving it, I was just finding the whole experience kinda amusing.


then we realised there was a large roundabout 3 miles ahead, so we better hit the brakes to stop in time :)

One for the road kills section me thinks
