Just what i was going to ask ?

Never been havent a clue what happens at this place other than it sounds like a few knobheads go and cock it up for everyone else, it is worth a trip down there in the Cos or am i likely to get it whacked ?

From what it used to be like to what it is now - let's just say it's a real shame.

I will be avoiding this meet like the plague. Too full of talentless knobs trying to show off their driving prowess. Everytime this meet happens there is a tale of woe to accompany it. Whether it be somebody crashing or cars being broken into.

What used to be a very good night has just gone down the pan imho

I've got another van that I take down there... you probably wouldnt have seen it though mate as I can never get it in the car park..

This one is a really straight original van, done 58,000 miles, in green, with a rear window and seat conversion which was a tax dodge in the 60's.

It was too nice to put a Zetec/ST170 motor in it, so I fitted a 1960's Shorrock Supercharger to it......

7psi of boost gave a 40% power increase

One night I'll get it in the carpark and you can have a look.

Cheers Neil

Had a great night, was good to meet a few people off this forum and others

Who ever didnt go that was thinking about it, you missed a top night

As for people being worried about other peoples driving and nowhere to park etc.. All you need to do is get there early. This way you will be able to park in Ace Cafe's carpark and you wont need to worry about any damage etc..

Soon Ace Cafe will have a invite only carpark so you will need to get your name on a list, then you can arrive anytime as long as you have booked.

Regards
Jano

I was in the car park mate.
Got there early and found a great spot, didnt move all night until we left at about 10:30.

Was a great atmosphere there tonight, friendly peeps, and loads wicked motors to look around. Nothing very different but well built and looked after cars for deffo! Big respect to the owners of:-

The Mk2 Xpack RS2000
Mk1 Capri
The Mk1 Van

Loving the above

Yeah, just don't bring a nice car, prepare for chav city, come on a moped to "fit in", and prepare to spend your time watching some scabby saff donutting round the roundabout for the 500th time

Anyone who stayed 'til the bitter end last night would have seen the excellent display of 'stunt' driving from some 'donut' in his mums pegeuot 106.

And you have to wonder what is going on in the world because this little Charva had the back wheels locked up with the handbrake and was spinning the car round in the road, throwing all over the place and was followed up the road by a cop car............ who did nothing.... wankas



Jano... did I overhear you telling someone your S1 was fitted with a Group N turbo ?
