Is anyone coming to this event got a set of engine bay stickers they can bring with them?

Sadly i'm coupe-less so i'll have to come in the german family wagon and park in the normal parking area!

I'll be there before 9 too

I've got some left, but don't think I've got the full set, but I'll bring what I've got just in case no one else has.

Also got a rear badge unopened if anyone wants it.

Rear badge would be cool. I'll bring some engine stickers too.

thanks guys much appreciated

I'll be in the wine red VIS, with a white Turin sticker on the rear window.

Good day out for a first event with lots to see and do . I hope everyone made it home safe and sound .

It was a really enjoyable day, I hope it becomes a regular event for the club
Weather was amazing and the fly pasts were a bonus

Bonus? Bonus? Took us *weeks* to arrange them!

I am sure you made every effort

A super day. Who'd have thought Porto would be a dominant colour at a Coupe meet with no Sprint blues!
I won't leave it so long again. I've put my phone photos on Facebook. About to download my camera photos and post some of them, I'll try to put some up on here too.
Did anyone else spot that De Tomaso Guara parked in the woods as we came off the track?

Eastbourne airshow was on yesterday so maybe the planes were on their way home from there?

Was amazing to see so many portos and no sprint red or speed blues. 3 steel greys too.

Yes we did, Adam had to Google it to find out what it was

We just read the label on the back. We got its make but not its name

We saw it too, but could not read the badge as we went by.

Was a well organised event chaps... Sorry wasn't as social as I should have been, the sun destroyed me, had to hide in the shade, a good turnout, some nice coops.... Loved the grales parked next to us!

Taz, I'm guessing yours was the rather lovely looking steel grey LE with the 18 inch Azevs? I was following you when we were heading to the track... was looking forward to hearing yours at full throttle, but you went straight ahead and took the exit!

I was hoping to ask you about your brakes but didn't see you unfortunately during the day. They looked good! What setup are you running?

Hi mate, bit of a fail that one, went straight home !

I wanted to track it, and knew i'd misbehave, so let it be.

I'm running 330mm discs & Alfa Calipers ( removed the lettering & used standard Brembo decals ).

The discs were sourced years ago by barbz ( with some custom bells ). The only fly in the ointment is that the pad backing plates need a small bit shaving off due to the bells protruding.... it was almost 7 yrs ago I had these made up... the price was eyewatering

I guess, nowadays, they are cheap as chips. The rears are standard extra large tarox discs.

cheers

A few photos from Gripped, Alesi, Boosted7 and myself of our weekend enjoying the festival and sun.

Good to see the FCCUK-ers are turning up with coops in top shape.
PeteP: as always you've managed to pull it off. Very well organised

A big THANK YOU to arm for organising a sub zero meet around the sunday's Brands Hatch festival.
It was cosmic having 3 days of fun with the Gripped family (Anna and Glenn), Boosted7 (Antony) and arm (Alan).

Still thinking about what a fantastic day it was at Festival Italia and the AGM...

From the outset the club made everyone feel very welcome - the flags going up and the tea and coffee on tap with loads of chairs it started off looking like it would be a very sociable day.

The AGM was interesting and encouraging given I haven't managed to make it to one in all the time I have been a member - shame on me... although clearly I am not alone on this one.

I can strongly recommend attending - even if it does involve a long drive...

With the AGM out of the way - PeteP even managed to grab the hospitality room for the day (somehow) which was amazing and gave some amazing views and sounds of the on track action

Loads of people came to view Coupes - with questions/comments like what are these? nice plate? lovely colours, never seen this many in one place, sounded great on track ...

I am biased here - but I also relished the sight of so many Porto's and Steel Grey's, it made such a nice change from the Sprinty's, Broomy's and Red's that usually dominate such meets.

Anyways I will shut up now and return to my cave (garage) with a final THANK YOU fccuk

Great pics. I'll try and upload some more. I also have a video of the parade lap.
