I'm there ! Hopefully have the 3G discs, fast road pads and new front tyres on by then 
.
Any good pubs up there we could have lunch at rather than The Little Thief?
Paul, if you're not working do you fancy finding a more interesting rout rather than a boring plod up the M3?

I can confirm . The misses will not be available to come now but that just means 220bhp will be put down on the road without being told to act my age .
Paul & Mark, if your both still up for it, I might as well meat you near Southampton?
Adyr, still cant make it?

Dingo do you have a time in mind when you want to see us all in the Tescos car park?
Adyr, you might be able to fit that 360? rear valance in your Chiq, someone might be intrested in it?

High noon unless my car can't get through its MOT.
There is a good little pub near The Little Chuff, should have enough parking.
So Tesco's @ J9 for 12:00, talk bollocks.. sorry technical for a while, fast pass to Sutton Scotney for lunch (outside if dry and warm-ish), hard pass down A30 working our way back to J9 (or anywhere else if anyone wants to come and play).

Paul, Mark, Kevin what time shall we meet up if we've gota be there for 12, 11o'clock or is that to earlly? Do we have a meeting point in/around Southampton?

Re: Hampshire meet.. - 09/03/2006 01:00
well if anyone wants to meet me to go via the A3090 to winchester they are welcome. Looking at the map though it looks like the best route for people coming off the M27 would be Junction 3 then follow the signs to Romsey. We could meet in the car park for the Romsey Rapids then head off from there. It is a longer route mind, but more interesting than the M3. A good time to leave from there would be 11.30 i think.
Have a look at a map and tell me what y'all reckon

I'd rather meet at the same time in sainsburys next to the petrol garage then thrash it up the m27/m3.

Fixed my compensator valve (with a lot of arsing about) but got there eventually. Fitted new handbrake cables and am now the proud owner of a new MOT.. ahhh!!
So.... Tesco @ 12:00 then set off down the A34.. trust me, I've been doing this for years and no-one's ever been hurt (much).

Don't mean to butt in on this thread, but do you guys know how big the car park is at Winchester Tescos 
! Suggest that you all turn left into the slip road opposite the Tescos filling station and then left again into the car park. This is the quietest bit of the car park, and easiest to get to .
I might pop along for a look at your cars around 12, as I live locally and have to go to Halfords anyway, which is just over the road. There looks like being a few fellow Sprint Blues along.

it always happens to me, either i get caught up behind slower traffic, or it looks like my exhaust is about to fall off, or like today, i stop for petrol and lose everyone! I should have paid more attention when andy said the route to take, instead of gazing at phils coupe!
anyway good to meet you all, can we do it again when it is a bit warmer?
Phil, i love your coupe, one hell of a machine. You should be proud

Good to meet you all today. Maybe next time I will come along for the drive as well and show you some really good roads around here . My particular favourite is not far from where you were for lunch today, but it is too complicated to explain how to get to it if you don't know the area .
You'll be pleased to hear that I have fully functioning brake lights again, but some b*stard put a load of Meguiars polish and other bits in my Halfrauds basket while I wasn't looking. Oh well, I have a nice £10 voucher to spend now...

Nice photo's Mark, I feel like my dirty old coop let the side down, I will make sur eI give her a clean for next time, also if I am kidless I will join in the drive, last summer was a real blast (apart from 5cylinder) obviously, which was the wrong sort of blast. I think I have my coop at just the right level of performance vs reliability, and the new racing clutch, although had its teething probs certianly gets the power through!
