Jon Ison - 13/6/10 at 04:59 PM

Who's doing what this month, any good offers on, looking do do one this month if possible ?

Cadwell would be track of choice.

It's funny is that - there were 4 places left when I booked on a few days ago, and there's still 4 places now Don't think they keep the page that accurate!


Steve Hignett - 13/6/10 at 06:41 PM

Oulton on Tuesday mate...


Jon Ison - 13/6/10 at 06:50 PM

7th July, booked, have to get heads togethor closer to day.


PAUL FISHER - 13/6/10 at 07:06 PM

Yes will do Jon,Chris Mason is also booked on from over our way too,with his new RR SR2,should be a right good day,I am looking forward to it,as Ive not been on track for a few months now


Jon Ison - 14/6/10 at 05:26 PM

Where do you find the list of attendees, when I booked I was asked no info on car etc........


PAUL FISHER - 14/6/10 at 07:03 PM

Me and Chris should be setting off from Worksop at around 6.00am, so how does 6.15am sound Jon, then head off for Cadwell at 6.45am, its about 1hr & 15 minutes from Markham Moor to Cadwell, so we should get there around 8.00am
Anyone else wanting to join us for breakfast, its the A57 turn off on the A1 towards Lincoln, details below.

6.15 McMuffin breakfeast.


Andy D - 1/7/10 at 07:09 PM

I think I'll probably be an early riser, travel down in the morning. Unless we get hopelessly lost, I wont be at Maccy Ds!


chris mason - 1/7/10 at 07:57 PM

Old mac Donalds sounds good to me, having said that hearing the engine for the 1st time would do too

If things go to plan i should be firing it up tomorrow, with only 3 nights and the weekend left between now and cadwell it should be interesting to see if i get it finished in time

Yeah Andy it's up and running and ready for cadwell, it's far from finished bodywork wise, but as for engine, brakes and suspension they're as good as they're going to be
Might have to bleed the brakes through after a few laps, but i won't know until i lean on them a bit.

Looking forward too it, and it appears from the forecast that the only rain we'll see is late afternoon, so if things go to plan i should be able to iron out any creases and enjoy a few warm laps.

see you tomorrow
Chris


Jon Ison - 6/7/10 at 06:28 PM

See you all at Macy d's about 6.15 ish, Ive sorted weather out, just put car on trailer with wets on, slicks are in van, that keep the rain away for sure.......


gingerprince - 6/7/10 at 09:08 PM

God knows what's going on with the weather?!

According to Metcheck, it'll be dry all day in Louth (5 miles away): -

yet at Cadwell postcode there'll be some rain: -

http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/today.asp?zipcode=ln11+9se

I know there's "the mountain" at Cadwell, but it ain't that high is it?!!

See you all tomorrow (at the track, not maccys)

PAUL FISHER - 7/7/10 at 07:39 PM

What a great day, weather was perfect, good to meet up with all the other locostbuilders,it made it a very enjoyable day, got loads of quality track time in, I managed 193 miles , I look forward to the next one.


Andy D - 7/7/10 at 09:52 PM

Yep, cracking day. Have been watching some of the video, should be a selection up on the tube in the next few days.

I think we failed miserably trying to get the Clio on camera. (Wasn't from lack of trying, was it Paul!)The front cam either wasn't working or turned off whenever I got behing Mr F. There's a little bit from the rear camera..

As ever good to meet folks, will get some pics up tomorrow.


Andy D - 8/7/10 at 08:38 AM

A few pics as promised.
