Regret will not make it my car is still in bits.
The company owner did a runner back to Oz. I was just lucky enough to recover my wagon and engine (still seperateed) and get them to a new garage. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

 

Just got back from the Scooby Shootout and had a great day, best time
13.37 @ 109mph not bad for an almost standard TT, there was also another series one Legacy that was quick , so quick it destroyed its gear box on the last run
Tim

 

Tim,

Nice to see your leggy go so well

It's official, the TTs are stealth like, not one single pic of your car in the gallery (unless I've missed it)

On a downward note, I can't make this weekend so I'll be determind to make meet 3.
Have a good 'n' though, look forward to seeing the pics.

I'm going to the Kent Scoobies RR day, sole TT, so when I get my print out I'll post it.

If I can get my hands on some more webspace, may consider a TT register site, with pics n info.

Mark

 

Mark,
Thats right, you dont get a mention or photo when youve just embarassed about 20 Scoobys !!!! Ooh well it was so stealthy it was unreal, my brother was there and after the first few runs I asked if it sounded loud (a la Impreza) and he said not a sound compared to the Impreza just disappeard down the strip, and there's more to come. Sorry You can't make the meet but keep in touch and see you at meet 3. Fancy a trip to the 'ring next year? I'm planning on going around easter, maybe that could be meet 3?
Later Tim

 

May have to get the white beastie over for #3 me thinks

 

no more diesel, I have a B4 blitzen from japan, the sat nav can work in the uk, had a good company is St albans tweek something to give me english as well !!

 

Just realised it's this weekend.......is it still on?

Jon.

 

Jon,
Sure is mate, see you there
Tim

 

Convoy to TT meet, I'll be going down the M6 from J 16 on Sunday morning at 0830ish if any one is travelling that way? Let me know.
Tim

 

Sorry guys just had call from work, due to sickness I am next in line as duty officer this weekend that means I have to stay local in case of call out, hope to make the next meet, have a good day and please post some pics so i can see what i missed lol.

Mick

 

Tim,

Sorry that I haven't replied earlier but the barstuards at work have only just told me that they cannot cover my shift tommorow, I will get to one of these meetings if it kills me!! Hope to see you guys at the third meet.

Cheers,

Simon

 

Sorry i couldnt make it today my wife is ill and i have to take care of the baby.
Hope it was a good day and i will make the next one.

Ian G

 

Seems very quiet, after the meet.


Hope there was a good turnout....

Where are the pics....

Mark

 

Unfortunatly only 4 of us turned up, but we all had a good natter & the weather was excellent.
Thanks goes to Tim for organising the day.

Jon.

 

Yes it was a big let down in terms of numbers, but the 4 that did make it had a good chin wag. No pics either. So anyway onwards and upwards as they say.
Next year I'm going to the 'ring in the spring, pardon the pun. Jon says he is coming as well as our new American/German buddy Andy.
Hi Andy hope you enjoyed our sense of humour etc. Which could be very handy as Andy is familiar with the 'ring. One being a native, and two having been and driven before. Plus my basic pub German is very limited. So any takers please post provisional, we can call it meet Three and then send the photos to the Yahoo group and really get them pissed off, living in Europe does have some advantages. Hi AJ are you coming over for meet Three?
Big thanks to the three that made the effort last Sunday and also those who let me know that they could not make it.... the others shame on you!!!
Tim

 

4

Meet 3 at the 'ring', sounds like fun

Q. time

Does anyone know if the EJ20R engine has either, solid or hydraulic tappets?
As mine are a little noisey.

Mark

 

mine are solid so I think yours should be as well
Tim

 

Oh bugger, means shimmy shim time

more expense

cheers Tim.

Mark

 

Only 4? We get more than that here

Got one car up to 300hp/280ft-lbs the other day - have to see if it will stay in one bit tho

 

Apologies for not being there, but I had a slight 'bump' in Tesco's carpark the week before. Car's still awaiting a new bumper to be shipped from Japan

I'm missing it!

Rich.

 

Rich, apology accepted, sorry you had to miss and bad luck on the car. Must havebeen a good swipe you had. Coming next year to the ring?
Tim

 

Heh - not really, well under 5mph in torrential rain. But the bumper did what it's designed to do, and crumpled. Bent the bonnet slightly too, and pushed the rad back slightly (didn't break it though). Tip - don't drive a 280bhp Legacy GTB with worn tyres in a greasy, wet carpark without great care

Can't believe the prices for those two items (bumper's about £400, bonnet £425 +£200 shipping). Or maybe I'm just used to Renault 5 prices (bumper £60, bonnet £80)....

Still, hopefully should have it back in a couple of weeks.

Rich.

 

Tell me about it mate, my engine rebuild and work cost me 3.5k and that was just a short engine and various bits. paul has just pranged his crev B4 and is looking for a bumper, headlight and side panel. I hope mine does not make it three !!!!
Cheers Tim

 

I'll keep mine off the road then

Mark
