Jamesy

I think ally was hoping us Northern guys could meet at armagh and head down from there in a convoy..

Im not 100% sure i can go yet, trying to sort out some stuff for work but hopefully I will be there.

What time and where about are you thinking of meeting Ally ?

I would suggest at the side of the road near the Armagh Demesne (just up from the cop station) ? Maybe you already have somewhere in mind though ?

Cheers
Ian

Don't know Armagh very well but I do know the centre of town, with the big green.

I planned the Route on the AA site from Armagh to Athlone and it says 1hr 44mins, So I'd say 2hrs . If we're planning to be in Athlone for 1pm the we'd need to leave Armagh at 11am. I'd like to aim for 10.45am again to give us some breathing space . Thats me leaving home about 10am in Magherafelt.

So James do you want to meet in Armagh? I've printed of the route and got a great map with route marked on it, I should have a co pilot with me as well to read the map.

Ian hope you get your work sorted. Gives a good day tomorrow so we have the makings of a great day .

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Ian and James I sent you guys my mob no over PM. Put it in your phones and ring me in the morning. Much easier to meet up then.

Ally, great - I'll phone you in the morning. Just had 11 kids for a Hallowe'en party. Party ended hours ago but the alcholic parents have just left! See you in Armagh tomorrow morning. *(Don't forget the hour changes)*

We had 7 coops and a CTR in the end. Fair play to everyone that turned up, we had a bit of a chat, then a bit of a queue for food, then a bit of a drive in traffic. Passers by got their pics taken in front of allystews car, i told them that mine had a 3" downpipe and it was really my coop that they wanted a pic of, but they didn't seem convinced All in all, it was great to meet everyone, but we didn't really get a chance to rip up the roads in athlone ... maybe next time

Good meet. Good craic. The locals got treated to 7 Coupes in a convoy. Naturally there was a sprint blue one leading the posse for 'navigation' purposes on the way out...

Ok heres some of the pics I took on the day . Again I'm so glad we managed to pull this meet together. I was worried at one point but I'm glad it turned out so well .

My run in with Ferrari 355 on the way to Athlone

small group

The full line up

bonnets up

As I said before I'm all up for another meet in the spring. My suggestion would be a "Trackskills" trackday at Kirkistown. These are free in for spectators so those people who do not want to track their coupes can still come along. Passangers are free as well. Also I might finally have my coupe fully ready for the track in the spring .

Well,

Just got back to computer so posting today.

Was a great day and was brill to meet everyone who
shares a psssion for the coupe.

7 is not a bad start so we have to build on this for the next one and as Ally said a trackskills event would be a great idea.

tbh i dont fancy the track either, unless i can bring the pilbeam along

I damage my coupe enough driving it on the road never mind spinning it @ 140+ though debtors at kirkistown and requiring a Matbro to take it home!
