Marco I'm already leaps and bounds ahead. Done more to my interior today, spoken to my friend Dave who's a trimmer to do my custom seats and some other cheeky bits. Engine work next, the body is done, no need to improve on one of the best looking sprintys lol. Sorry Marco best get to changing to your colour wink

Rosey I'll have them all up tomorrow as the other half's nicked my camera the cheeky mare.

In all fairness though I'd rather have a stupidly quick Coupe over a "pretty" Coupe I'm just in a position to potentially have both if my cards are played right and it doesn't break....which it's bound to.

Anyway back to the meet tongue

Couldn't make Brighton, but I was on the M25 only 5 cars behind that same caravan that bought it. Amazingly sureal to see a snake develop that quickly and violently. Just no way he could hold it and incredible that those each side of him managed ot get out of the way. 10 more seconds or so and I'd have been along side him. After t-boning the central reservation it landed on its side across 2 lanes of traffic. Sick that the 5 or so cars in front just drove on not wanting to get held up. We pulled along side (albeit it making sure I wasn't behind to get stuck) to see the poor family limp out and help check ok. Couple of young kids traumatised but at least unhurt. Nice start to their holiday. Horrible to see it but very glad of the coupe's brakes when you need them.

Everyone's Coupes were looking awesome and even the little GT held it's own against the big boys. Remember though Rosey, you carbon copy my car I kill you tongue

Also a shame you all buggered off as me and Hovedan had some real fun making a few vids down at that spot, all will be online soon including my photos of the day.

Great to meet you all, some again wink
Shame I had to zoom off to do the decorating frown but I did hook up with a suped up Golf GTI MK5 and showed him what Old School was all about right under the nose of a S-Max Fed cop, who'd already pulled someone. Sounds like you had a fun time yourselves. excellent pic's I'll post mine soon.
P.S. I got a full days work out of the builders today, at last!

Blimey mate, I've seen that happen before too, but he managed to get out of it!

Well done for stopping to help, I know we all hate caravanners for slowing traffic, but this is an example of why they have lower speed limits.

I towed a 23' boat many years ago, and when it started to weave it scared the CR*P out of me.

I keep checking too!

So how many are up for the Speed Trials Meet?

click to enlarge

Too late to enter a car now, the list is normally oversubscribed.

You also have to be a member of the club and hold a competition license.

Here are the details.

Diddy - epic fail mate

Rosey - Did you buy Ryan's coop? If so, did you declare the mods making it 330bhp, and what did it do to your insurance premium?!

Ian - I'm there for the speed trials. Did look into entering, but for a bit of form filling to get the comp licence and membership of the Brighton Motor club, would not have time, and as you say, is oversubscribed anyway. Next year maybe we can get a few coops in there.
