Off course you can join us! You are more than welcome and i hope your mate with the P1 can come round as well. I will post a map soon..roughly Tolworth is very near to Kingston.Off the A3 from the M25 towards Gatwick you take the A3 all the way to Kingston and you come out at Tolworth roundabout.Charrington bowl is on the right big massive place you cant miss it.I ll do my best to post a map ASAP....

Cheers see ya there

copy that link onto your web browser.Thats tolworth roundabout.Charrington Bowl is ON the roundabout you cant miss it(unless you are blind-Im only joking).Enter the car park of Charrington Bowl and you will see lots and lots of scoobs..Anybody has any problems getting lost and being late the last minute can email me and I'll give him my mobile so that we can wait for him or something...

Cheers all

Hi Kostas,

I've been on a few Elise 'fish n chip' runs. These are now quite a big event - with own web site etc. One really good thing was prior route planning notes - it also helps if people are late/want to join at a certain stage. Have you given any thought to the actual route - if so, maybe a summary on here would be good as I think your plan is more popular than you first realised! Just a thought...

Cheers
Adi

Velryba's chick YHM.
Adi,Thats a very good Idea.Thats the route me and Ru are proposing:

A240 onto A24 down thru dorking and crawley, turn left along the a272 to cowfold and then the a281 to devils dyke (from the a272 the roads some good twisties etc and is worth a laugh).

Scooby Doo please if you want propose a route that you think is good(with times if possible)-Mind that we will wait for 20 mins or so after 12:00 just in case somebody is late or lost(Please people who think that will be late or lost email me and i 'll give you my mobile so that we can sort somethng out). I recommend that EVRYBODY gets to Tolworth as its better, in case we dont go that route to Brighton..(or something happens-You never know traffic etc etc...).

Cool

hey all, so many people(chopper etc) never turned up!.To those who did nt turn up you really missed an awesome drive specially through these country lanes it was like being in Makkinen's scooby(thats what my friend said hehe). That TT needed pair of binoculars to see me(poor Audi) left him about 1 mile back..Also that skyline on the M25(I feel sorry for it). Those who didnt turn up i hope they will next time..(What is wrong with you heh?).
Also to that policeman whi pulled me over for going through an orange light(what a waste of his time)..

Rog A,

were you in the blue scoob?

You were on the traffic lights next to us (silver MY95).

You should come along next time, chcek the forums for future events. There is something going on all the time

Kostas, they stopped you because you were going on orange? Ahh what a looser..the copper I mean... When we turned up he was smiling I think he just liked the sound of your Scoob and wanted to check it out closer

Great day anyway.....
See ya

Kate

Rog,

there were about 6 - 7 cars starting from London, we went down to Brighton on B roads, round the Devils Dyke (nice curvy roads !!!)
We were also meeting some "Brighton scoobs" on the sea front.

Yes there was a blue P1 and a lot mere WRX's, they were already heading up to the car park (didn't you hear the loud xhausts going up the multi storey car park??)

Hope to see you on one of these "again".

Kate

Cheers All for a great (even losing it on the A24 was a buzz )

It was a pity that not more turned up cos it was fun seeing the skyline being burnt by 350horses (Nice one Kostas).

Nate - nice motor mate but was the weather a bit too much to get out of it for longer

Hopefully see you all in a couple of Sundays, just don't let me try and find the way onto to the A3 ( Nightmare - sorry folks )

Good on ya all.

See ya

Ru

Guilty.... sorry Kostas. I was very keen to join you but did not commit as I was out of the country this weekend, as I had suspected hence me not commiting to the run.

Very keen to join the next one though - perhaps the weather will be better! Planning on a trip to Scoobysport for downpipe/cat removal so will be looking forward to a proper blast.

Rog A,

The Green V-reg with the Huge 22B rear wing was mine, there was a couple in a lovely P1 behind me, and pointed out it was blowing flames, oh yes!

*ponders on a anti lag system*

I have a full scoobysport stystem fitted down pipe, center and back box.

Put the power up form 214BHP to 261BHP, that is enough for the road, I think.

You get lots of Tubro noise, sounds really nice.

Thanks Happy H,

I've been thinking about a few mods and after hearing yours I think the exhaust is good place to start, plus my missus liked the sound so shouldn't have too much problem convincing her it's a good buy.
