AWWWWWWWW...... Proppa reunion goin on here!!

How about a PF meet-up @ McDonalds one saturday night, for old-times sake?
I always sit in maccies, coz of the obvious safety benifits,
and the obvious eating benefits!

I'm gonna be there next Saturday, with a few mates.

James will be there in his S2, and Clive's comin over in his RWD saff (384bhp/350 lbft!)

If your doin nowt... get over an say hi...

Fookin hell Im gettin all teary eyed at all this

Proper cars in the early 90s as Marco said

None of these fookin saxos corsa bollox were talkin MK1 XR2s caged up with straight cut boxes , Mate had a gorgeous freshly built caged MK1 Fiesta Supersport

Then it moved down to Tyesley for a bit by George Heath body shop where they got that fookin big long straight

Thats when I saw A STAR or A5 TAR

God damn I loved that car

A bit of a shed nowadays but Micks had it a proper long time


Im sorry this is all too much LOL

I will tell you how it all started from the begining .............we just use to drive around the city center all night possing with the motors LOL don't forget i was younger then you know
anyway there was a few of us that had Rs 2000's mk1 / mk2/capri's a couple of lads with sunbeams ti's/lotus with decent power for the times and what we use to do after a bit we would park down be sides the ss just to have a chat

then after a few months more and more cars use to arrive ....but this was only in the summer time ...and every year it got bigger and bigger ...then we got more idoits fooking about.... then the old bill started to arrive ....after a short while the council started to do road works to stop all the idots from racing

and thats how it all started

errr... kinda speachless now...
I looked thru the sites above, very touching. I obviously don't know any of you lot here (except badcompany), but, and I dunno how to say this really, but I feel a kind of connection, to how this guy must be missed.
We all mod, it's our lives, to go fast, to look cool. To stay young, I suppose. But when you hear a story like young Jamies, it makes you sit up an think, and mebbe not feel so bad about the shit life you might think you've got. At least you've got your life.

God bless ya Jamie. I bet your the fastest off the line, wherever you are.

Fook me I remember that chopped Range Rover very well

Everyone used to run when it hammered it through the esses bit as leant over so bloody much you thought it was going to roll

Fairplay to it though never even got out of shape but had some serious lean angle going on

aaaaaaaaah the good old days indeed
