ultimate street car - santapod 5-7th august

hi everyone have you guys got any plans to go to this show would be good to meet a few other coop owners i go every year with my local car club and we have a huge club camping area and is generally a all round good weekend.

tbh, last time i went to USC i found it had gone down hill VERY fast from other times.

such a shame as years before it was great

has started to get a bit of a chav fest tbh but you just deal with them and there space rocket saxos on the strip

true.
But last year, it was SO bad that when the "stippers" where on stage i think there was 10 people (including me and 2 mates) in the tent..
when the beat boxer come on stage they filled the tent..

some thing is wrong there in my eyes.

its a chave fest.

but knowing my luck it will be a good one this year.

decisions decisions...

so no one coming then ? looks like im repping the coupe owners on my own then !

I might come weather dependant as santa pod turns into a mud bath with lots of rain and the strip closes too

Good point.

How was it?

very chav tastic but in all honesty there were some pretty decent cars about only saw one other coupe though and mine ran a terrible 15 second flat but apparently im spooling late

Such a shame.
I sadly think that USC will only ever just be a Chav event.

Pitty because when I last went (2 years ago) it was an event that when you left all you wanted to do is spank cash on making it go faster..

Oh well, I guess it does not help that time attack was also on at the same time..

Next year they should try to get it on a weekend with out another big event is on..

what spec is yours?

Hi mr. d, was probably my coupe you saw there, sprint blue on standard wheels sprayed gloss black?, could of sworn i was the only owner of a coupe in the whole event what day/time did you do your run?, would of been good to have a chat!

yes thats the car i did pop over and have a look round you had the bonnet up but so many people around couldnt work out who owned it.

my cars a bit poorly i ran at 8.30am on friday best was a flat 15 with 223bhp

how did you get on?

hi i was there saturday, electric blue plus with black wheels was very tempted to go down the strip but clutch slips on in gear acceleration,didnt see any other coupes

Ahh shame i didnt see any of you two, best run was a 14.9 @ 98mph kept getting my launches messed up lol, my car is standard other than a cat back exhaust system, that 223bhp at the flywheel i take it?

tezcoupe, about your clutch slip i did mine a week before USC and if you are doing it yourself i would say its one of the hardest job ive done on any other car in my life!, really is a pain, im sure marco knows how bad of a job it is... but good luck

i will be doing myself in a few weeks done it on my last coupe i vowed never to do it again so not lookin forword to it will be changing the belts the same time,then go to pod later this year

It's a fun job!! Lol
