Paul, we will be making an appearance so i'll make sure I have the club stand packed for you all.

I would suggest anyone travelling through Chelmsford to meet up in the Tesco's car park next to Miami Hotel on Princes Road for 8.30 leaving there at 9.

My friend has a café about 10 min's from the show, plenty of parking, could be an idea we all meet there for a bacon roll and coffee, just an idea, let me know your thoughts...

They have food stalls in there. Easiest option is to all meet on the green at Hatfield Heath. Things will get to complicated otherwise mate

Very tempted to come along to this, about time I start doing car shows with other people on here. Just got to fix my splitter first though... I'm staying in Thurrock Premier Inn that weekend so which pre-meet is closest? I've seen Chelmsford mentioned...

Well, it's the West Thurrock one. Apparently there's two in Thurrock...

I've gotta wash mine by hand on saturday down in Ashford and then pray it doesn't rain/get **** on/mud splattered on the drive on saturday afternoon to the hotel and sunday morning to Chelmsford. I'll probably end up bringing a bottle of water and some kitchen roll incase that happens lol

As long as I get the chance to give mine a good clean inside and out and remove my damaged splitter, I'll be there. Probably about time I put some piccy's up...

Well I've decided to spray the splitter black, as well as the plastic skirts and rear spats, or whatever the plastic bits are called lol. Just cant get a decent ramp intime ro take it off sadly

And if I want my car to look anywhere near as nice as everyone else on here I've gotta try and make it sparkling lol

You'll be fine mate. My car is far from perfect, most people have bits and pieces need doing. Just enjoy the day.

I'll meet everyone at Hatfield Heath, but only staying till 1pm as my Brother in Law was rushed to the PAH Hospital mid-week with some pretty serious heart problems, so I will be off there for the afternoon and will meet other family members already there, so will drive down with you lot but will park up on the public parking area so I can slip off without disturbing the stand........

See ya in the mornin.........

I gotta pull out of this one now.
I spent a day @ Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb today, my eldest was racing a 5.0litre single seater!
So, I've had my petrol fix for the w/e and gotta do family stuff tomorrow.
.....the Wagon is filthy anyway so I would not be a good example!
Hava good show!

Well Larry has had a wipe with an oily rag and is good to go.



I'll try and keep up with you when we leave the Heath but may have to cut across country if I start getting left behind.

Great turn out, was good catching up with you all........oh that's right, only 2 of us bothered turning up, bloody awesome!!

Had a massive pitch allocated to us, made the club look a bit stupid to be honest!!

Was told there were 8 Scoobs at the petrol station meeting point in Chelmsford, would have been nice to have least been told no one could be bothered to go any further.

It was a good show even with the weather, loads of lovely old classics bothered to make it, I must have the only Scoob that doesn't melt in light rain!!

Won't bother next year, bring back Tiny!!

We were all at the meeting point in Hatfield Heath waiting for you but you didn't show up. It was bucketing it down for the half and hour we waited and the forecast was that the weather was set in for the rest of the day. Some of us had small kids with us and sitting in a car in the rain gets very boring very quickly so unfortunately the decision was made to blow it out. Not an easy decision and we were gutted.

True that. Was a massive shame, was looking forward to the show. Regret spending nearly three hours on my splitter this morning now lol

Oh dear...............what a dreadful shame. I can empathise with KinQuick's thoughts there although conversely, I see some logic behind Fozz's sentiments.
Kin's comment re - "bring back Tiny" resonates with my comment in the "End of an era" thread.

It was a shame not many turned up, but was nice to meet the few that did make it

Looked like I was the only member of the club at one point
