View Full Version : Grizdale Stages!
LEE P 29 November 2001, 09:57 Hi all its that time again for Grizdale which is on this saturday, im only doing the saturday as i wont be able to make it up to the Ayrshire stages.
first stage is 9.43am so it would be a early start for you 555 BOY if you been "oot on the lash!" two stages should be easily done. my cousin is navigating again and they managed to swing a EVO 6 so they should do pretty well after 8th on the Malcom Wilson.
Anyway 555 if you can make it give me a bell! im working first thing but ill be at stage 1, tell mark to blow his nose before he sets off!:D:D:D
SPEN555 29 November 2001, 10:44 Hi Lee,
I think I will be going. Tonight I'm calling at a M8's house who knows Grizedale inside out and he is going to give me a map and tell me where to go for the best viewing.
Damian.
NeilS 29 November 2001, 11:10 Hi Lee
Have you any more information on stage times, route etc, is there a web site? I'm up in Yorkshire this weekend and may go and have a look. I haven't been to Grizedale for years, not since the good old days of the RAC Rally.
Neil.

tonka 29 November 2001, 17:39 IF YOU SNEEK A LOOK IN MOTORSPORT NEWS THERE IS A MAP OF THE STAGES.
555 BOY 29 November 2001, 20:08 Tawreet Fettlers,
Yeah I should be up for it now that I've 1/2 recovered from my RAC induced cold :(,As for the "ooot on't Lash" comment..........Do Bears 5hit in the woods :D:D:D:D:D
Which car park are you after doing Lee ? Or should we just leave it to Damian to sort out.We did car Park A (High Cross) on the Malcolm Wilson Rally so I don't know if you fancy trying a different one.
Damian,have a look on your maps for a "Crossroads" type junction,I get the feeling that its really two hairpins back to back,on another rallying website people comment on what a good spec it is but I don't know where.
CYA Saturday,
555
p.s Mark has swopped his Saturday off with someone else at work so................I'll take some special "Scoobynet" Mansize tissues around to him now :D:D:D:D

LEE P 29 November 2001, 20:43 Hello My old muckers! stages 1 and 5 9.43, 13.16,
2 and 6 are 10.06, 13.39.
car park B looks quite good? near some twisty stuff, been talking with my cousin today and the run up to the end is quite good and very fast. (car park c) ive got private parking to a good veiw point at a distant relations farm, not sure if they would let a load of scoobs in though? ill ask and see. if we are all going te a mutual car park would be good. you got that dump valve fitted yet SPEN? Tim dont forget ya "scoobynet" tyre grease for some super sliding action! :D :D see ya all there.
Cheers Lee.
555 BOY 29 November 2001, 20:52 Hmmmmmmmm MUPPET,MUPPET..............YOUR A SCOOBYNET MUPPET BOYO !
Yeah I'm easy,B or C is closer to the M6 anyway = less of an early start :D:D:D
Yeah I'll bring along the "Grease" maybe if I see the relevant authorities then Scoobynet could be interested in "Promoting" it along with the growbags :D:D:D
555
SPEN555 29 November 2001, 23:17 O.K.
I've got the map from my m8. I think he goes to the spots where they are most likely to crash from the photos he showed me! LOL. Maybe we can get a few scoob spoilers if there is?
He has suggested that we go to car park B (High Barn). The point of spectating is a good 25 minutes walk from car park B but is meant to be good. Stage 2 of Grizedale North starts at 10:06am and so I think we should aim to be there for 09:30am.
Tim I will be setting off around 07:30am.
Lee what you on about a dump valve? I had a dump earlier today but thats about it. I've got some nice gauges to show you thou.
Damian.
LEE P 30 November 2001, 01:28 LOL damion! thats whsat i meant! te dump valve in your ar5e! Tim told me you were fitting a dump valve? maybe he meant gauges! il av a look at the gauges anyway!
Car park B is fine with me! i can be there at 9.30 no probs!
are you staying for the duration damien? as it runs that stage again at 13.39? im up for it! my cousin has been testing the evo 6 in wales and reckons they have a good chance of winning it steve head last years winner is not competing despite what motoring news says.
There is a good line up of cars, so it should be a great rally! cant see tim making it for 9.30am if he has been ont tap the night before! LOL topping up that log Book! :D:D:D
SPEN555 30 November 2001, 10:12 I will be up for the afternoon stage as well. I'm not travelling all that way just to see one stage and there is no England match on this time.
My m8 has a picture of an Evo4/5/6 on its roof down a ditch where we are going watch! LOL. This was taken at this same rally in previous years.
Damian.
Blackscooby 30 November 2001, 11:31 Good luck to Alex Taylor (aka AJ Motorsport) in car 103 Blue Impreza.

555 BOY 30 November 2001, 19:59 "Lee what you on about a dump valve? I had a dump earlier today but thats about it"
LOL :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

And don't worry about me Tap or No Tap:p I'll be there for 9.30........ish,I've already got Mark blowing his nose ready & I've picked up another klingon in the form of Ian ........Brave,silly people or what ;)
"Maybe we can get a few scoob spoilers if there is"........Not when theres a near scouser about m8...........not a chance :D
Damian is this spec your on about to the North or South of 'B' cos thst double back-back hairpin that I was on about is to the south..........maybe do your spec in the am and the Double haipin in the pm.........ah we'll see.

LEE P 01 December 2001, 23:48 Hi all!
Yep we had a crackig day, those mk 2 escorts defo good entertainment:D
Tim/Damien was talking to my cousin tonight and they had a cracking result!!! first time out in the evo 6 and cam 2nd! overall! what a great finish out of 126 cars, there was plenty of scoobs/mitsibishis.
Steve sherwin saw your scoob M8, i was about 10 cars behind you but you werent there, that rear wing looks pretty trick!
Hey damian you should go into pod fitting! tidy mate:D

Steve Sherwen 02 December 2001, 15:10 Have to agree with the Mk2s. They are definitely best for entertainment.
Great day out and the weather was kind too!
Steve
navigator 02 December 2001, 18:28 hi guys. i went to watch to.was in car park B high barn and agree a great day.Never seen so many scoobs in a rally or so many in a car park.

have to say i'm a mark 2 fan as well they were good.
Blackscooby 04 December 2001, 11:13 Just heard that the AJ Motorsport car came 24th overall. None to shabby really... This was despite a roll and running without any glass !!!!
oh and a minor engine fire ~ caused by the roll !
Well done to the guys in the Evo6 :D :D
Blackscooby 04 December 2001, 11:17 Just found a photo post roll.

Now thats gotta sting !
PS ~ Didn't post the picture directly as I'm not sure about Copyrighting etc...
LEE P 04 December 2001, 13:28 Hiya black scoob saw them go past! we were saying it must of been bloody cold with that screen out!
congrats to them for finishing with that bother they had! :D
roll on ther next one!
cheers Lee :D
SPEN555 04 December 2001, 13:40 Lee,
What do you mean roll on the next one?
Your getting as bad as Ted wanting to see a good crash!
p.s.Cleaned the car on Sunday. Sh#*te@#*d up to the eyeballs seems appropriate.
Damian.
Blackscooby 04 December 2001, 14:51 Lee P,
Alex said that it was bloody cold, but the worst part was going throught a hailstorm. Co-driver had an open faced helmet :eek: and hailstones at 80MPH+ hurt like f*ck apparently !
The co-driver's face was red raw by the finish !
LEE P 06 December 2001, 22:34 Hiya black scoob! cold as fcuk wold be a understatment! :D
cant beat the weathered look!
when are they next competeing AJ that is?
wwe were wondering when it went passed if it was going to be a re-shell or just chop the roof off and mig a new one on?
was chatting to my neighbour who was also navigating in Mk2 escort with a 1300cc suzuki swift 16v engine and box in it!!!
They came 1st in class and 31st overall, 6 minutes off third place! spennt most of their time sideways apparently! :D
what a laugh that must ff been!
Spen i still havent washed my car yet! looked quite good at first but i think the neighbours think im a rally muppet with sh1te up the sides! Ted is a ambulance chaser man! i like fast tidy rallying, ted likes em to climb trees!
has any of his pics come out? :D
cheers Lee
off to clean car! :D
SPEN555 06 December 2001, 22:40 Lee,
He sent me some of the pictures of my gauges and headed it 'Sh@*e Pictures' and they were of poor quality. So I think they didn't come out to well.
Damian.
