If you do put new tyres on, i'd make sure you bed them in first...

As it will be slippery and Extreme progress will be made..

Kris will you find out on Saturday and let us know whether it is or not.
I went out the London today and a bit of fun but also lotsa swet to try and stop to give a way to a van. Ended sideways. I wouldn't blame that on tyres

Provided everone has access to the e mail address I`ve already used then I can broadcast the decision easily. The weather men state its gonna rain tomorrow so that should clear it all away . Added to that its beautiful sunshine at the moment out my window that should also help.


**** If your Saturday E Mial differs from the one in your profile on here then send me one you can view ******

Hi all


I really think that it is best that we give it a miss given the fact that it is raining or snowing or that the roads will be icey.

We have to be very carefull and this time of year with the weather it could lead to a lot of accidents,there will be wet leaves on the road and also fallen branches as well as the road being very slippery.

I may not be able to make it so if you do go please be very carefull.

I hope you all have a top time if i dont see you there.

JIM

We've got bugger all snow down here

I'm not sure I can do the 12th now because my brake discs are warped & they're only 2 pots!!! I'm currently bartering on a new setup so if it's re-scheduled then everything should be cool

A very upset MAFFA (I wanna go!!!)

At the moment the run is STILL ON . The sun is out ( well it was a minute ago !) and the snow is rapidly disappearing. Lets not be too negative when there are still 2 days to go. I will be e mailing the route to everyone shortly.

Another successful run , thanks to all those who turned up . No problems with the conditions and there was some good sideways stuff going on ! I certainly enjoyed myself .

Hope you get the pheasant strike sorted ! Never did ask if you stopped to scoop it up for tea tonight!

Just finished jet washing the crud off and she back to shiny again ... not for long I reckon !!

Laterz potaterz

Much respect given for leading the way in those conditions Kris.

Ok, clang-n-ball newbie here, and not coming on this one (can't afford the petrol/tyre wear as they're getting low - well, I can, but rather wait till I have a job before even considering it - just had a big service too (ouch)).

Heard of it ages ago, but don't know about it apart from it involving 'spirited driving'. Is it always in the same place? Lovely roads down that way - been there twice before I had a Scoob and the long sections of high-visibility twisties would be great fun in a Scoob with no traffic around. Could someone be kind enough to explain what else, if anything, happens? (my email should be visible in my profile, I think).

Yes Great drive.. After washing my car yesterday I could see the colour it was meant to be again .. Paul I found loads of feathers in my engine bay

breezer mate the run has already happened... as for whats the drive like .. I will mail you later..

For all those that posted and never turned up .. wuzzes Talk the talk and all that.. But I guess as we wasn't stopping for the usual "Hood up and look at engine lark"I knew most of you wouldn't come (Dyney)..

Shame you didnt make it Andy.

Thanks again Kris.. look forward to the next one which by then I will have some F1's back on..

Sorry for not turning up (was icy when I looked out my window at 5am! )

Though I did slow some of you up on the A21 as you came back from the run

Saw the front of Roberts car and looked like it was fun. Maybe I'll not be a wuss and make the next one!

Couldn't come to this because I was off with the TA. Probably a good job considering I have no ABS, worn tyres and a knackered gearbox.
