I've never known an ESC meet get out of hand like they are suggesting. Lets not forget the monthly posers cruise is carried out at roughly HALF the national speed limit.

On a positive note, I received this Email from Shaun:

Hi Guys,

Just a quick note to say thanks for all your support on the day and apologies for not getting around to speak to you all...... it was a bit hectic!!!

From what we saw, the Subaru area was a sight to behold and we believe we had over 600 Subaru's parked up (which you guys contributed to)!!! :-)

The event was a major success (apart from the weather lol), and we are already planning for a bigger and better event next year.

Once again, thanks for your support and hope to see you all next year!!

Regards,
ScoobyNet and TOTB

I just wanted to say that most of our pink shirts were covered up as we were so cold, maybe we should keep the coloured shirts to the ESC and not anyone that wants them...At the moment anyone can have a pink shirt and then if they drive like an idiot we get put to blame.....

The local residents, of which there are about 3 have a moan after every single event at Elvington. I was at a trackday there last year where I got a ride in a 360CS but the guy was under instruction not to use even half power for over 1/3 of the lap because the local council had noise abaitment tw@ts in the woods taking measurements and making complaints regularly. FFS, these people need to realise that this is a working airport which still holds an annual air-show (I think ). How would they feel if it went back into full service ? I think a good idea for future events would be for some unofficial representetives to follow the council snitches through the woods polluting their attempts at recording sound levels Several 6-11 year olds would be perfect I genuinely think that ESC were picked out simply because the pink gave them something to latch onto, and someone would have got the blame no matter what, even though there is no blame to be got. I must say however that the flaming exhibition did go on a tad longer than necessary, especially for the person in the white car with pink STi graphics whose attempts went unanswered for what seemed like 3/4 of an hour. 10/10 for persistence though.

You mean the White Spec C with the Grey and pink graphics, that would of been myself i think the 3/4 hour is a slight exaggeration it was more about 10 mins tops, there were actually 3 cars within the ESC flaming, the car is very loud anyway and it may of been running for 45 mins as i was wet and cold and trying to warm up but it most definitely was not trying to flame for that amount of time ......

I've got to echo the sentiments above. I have never seen truly bad driving by anyone, sometimes 'spirited', but never bad. It wouldn't be worth my while/job to get involved in anything like that.

Next year, I suggest someone walk at the front of the convoy with a big red flag. I'd think that anyone over 5ft 3 should do it, therefore banning Supercue
