Cool day. We left early though - part time kids and all that.
Maybe lucky we did. Hope the injured aren't too badly off.

Good win for KPL, his fourth Lugan in a row

Pity Miggins didn`t win, if it hadn`t been for his big moment ...

More of a shame about the accident, not good at all.

Just a few post event words for all those who attended.... Thanks VERY much for making this what I believe to be the biggest Scooby convoy on these shores in recent times. The driving to and from the event was exemplary and we have done ourselves and Scoobynet proud with our efforts today.. The weather was crap as discussed but this did not put anyone off as far as I could see......

Pictures already hosted here and on other sites such as Jon44w, Cruisnig, etc really cannot do the convoy size justice....and what a feeling leading all these cars down the road....WOW

Just wanna say thankyou to the event organisers for having us and for donating the crystal, thanks to the members here and on ISDC who attended, and lastly but definately not leastly our thoughts are with the persons injured on the last stage and their families, an awful way to end a cracking day..........

Excellent turnout, especially with the weather conditions, as already said, the largest turnout out subs i think i`ve ever seen in NI. The motorway convoy was amazing, did anyone count how many cars arrived in the end?

Our thoughts do go to those involved in the accident, a reminder that motorsport is dangerous for drivers and unfortunately spectators as well sometimes.

look forward to the next meet, maybe even a tour of the coast or something some day?

Crystal went to those who were laft near the end of the day.....Ash12 - best prepped silver scoob, Ulsterscooby - best red scoob, Johnny in the rally decalled blue scoob...The Rb320, just because he turned up in a 320 LOL and cant remember the last person oooops LMAO. Unfortunately so many of the cars had left by that stage the crystal presentation was "informal" to say the least LOL......

Another great day out and hopefully the first of many to be organised by the site and its members....

Great day out and cracking turn out despite the weather. It was a bit disappointing to see the amount of litter left around our area when cars had been cleared away, although perhaps the organisers could have provided more bins, only ones I could find were by the fast food wagons. Sorry guys just one of my pet hates.

Great convoy and well done to all, I believe our conduct on the road was top notch, drawing attention to ourselves for only the right reasons, its not everyday you see (or hear) that many Scoobys in convoy.

Thanks Brocks, a well planned, organised and co-ordinated meet, which I think will inspire others in the future.

Photos are uploading at the moment - will post links asap.

Thanks very much to all who have posted about this being a well organised meet...... As the person behind the "organising" it was incredibly easy to do, but the main thanks has to go to both the organisers of the actual rally event, and the members of this site and others who joined in.....

Anyone can organise a "meet", but when only 2 or 3 cars turn up it is very disheartening..... this shows that there is an active scoob community both north and south of the border and we should try and organise more of these meets whenever we can.....I think its easier to do if there is a focus on an event already being hosted such as a rally event or show, rather than just " lets meet up and go for a drive".

Thanks again and watch the boards for the next "meet" cos I will definately organise another one after yesterdays success....LOL

sounds like the convoy was awesome. Didn't get to Sprucefield as we didn't leave Dungannon area till 9.30 so went straight there. Parked in a companies car park just over the road ( £5 - if I'd known you only paid £5 to enter the park would have parked there !!) There was an RB320 parked there also.

Great days racing shame about the weather and the accident......
