Red Lion Water End, Hemel Hempstead 7.30 pm 31st - 17/01/2006 08:58

Time is well past for another mini-meet at our favourite Red Lion pub in Water End.

Red Lion Water End.

How does Tuesday 31st at the usual time of 730pm sound?, grab beers and usual good quality food, and a chance to have the usual Coupe gossip and slander

Oi, you missed me off the list.....

Don't worry about the polishing, my car is a similar dull state today - done about 500 miles in the last few days.
Need to roll her into the garage and give her a damn good seeing to!...

I was a little bored last night.... and fitted my anti squeel shims last night. Whilst the wheels were off I decided to give the inside of the wheel a little clean (ok that is pretty sad)

And they are a slightly different colour to the outside part. It as if they are primer/base coat silver with no laquer on! I'll show you on tuesday..

Kevin - after our 'run'... my blitz was telling me that i was running about 1.2Bar. Need to work on the gain to get it to spool quicker but coming from behind it did look as if mine held boost better towards the redline.

Joe - The boost controller woes 'seem' *touch wood* to have sorted themselves out. I'm thinking it was down to the solenoid being new and needed a bit of use!

Karting - Deffo.

Thanks again guys for organising.. worth the trip up!

Had a good time, as always, so thanks for organising

Looking forward to a bit of competitive driving off the road when we get karting organised

Winning all the time on the road's getting boring now
