Sounds good - my lookouts at Stirling have spotted my EVO heading homewards tae fight again... erm... on the back of a Dutch breakdown truck... hmmm... don't remember that verse in Flo'er o' Scotland... Oh well...

You're all welcome up here anytime, although I'll have to check with Chris just how big his family is - I draw the line at second cousins twice removed lol!, whilst we have lovely roads e.g. http://www.rog.me.uk/Scottish%20MLR%...20Part%201.wmv 14MB, you might want to coincide the trip with a track day at Knockhill - quite a few on at the mo - see here for updates: http://www.scottishcarclub.com/phpbb...2ea62ff8615548 or if you like cheap thrills, some 1/4mile and 8val drift nonsense at Crail see here: http://www.crailraceway.co.uk/schedule.asp

Who knows, I may even arrange to be at home when you lot come up lol!!

Cheers

Rog

p.s. I've phoned the RSPCA regarding that Hoff video - even Paul wouln't tolerate that sort of treatment of animals...

OH MY GOD! I got my credit card bill today

Lets just say, if we schedule another trip for 12 months time, I should just about have paid this one off

Well worth every penny though.

pc is up and running again Just waiting on my update of pinnacle to arrive, then I'll start making inroads into sorting out all that footage. Got yours yesterday rog, not even looked at it yet.
See you all soon

Wow - that's almost affordable!

Just a shame it hasn't got a CD player for funky Jazz, though

Sorry guys - there are links to this in the National Events area - but the official website is here

At Santa Pod this Sunday (9th Oct) and there will be THE fastest Imprezas, EVOs, Skylines, etc doing the quarter mile thang.... as well as The Hoff and I... and hopefully Marv will be taking his beast up there too

If anyone else fancies coming then let me know and I'll see you there.

Cheers

Terry

Ohh that one

This Evo should be there too here

I bet the Hoff stops half way up the strip, gets out his chair and has a cuppa, then gets back in and still manages to beat most
