Thanks to Mikey for a) organising it b) letting me kip on his floor

Really awesome turn out and enjoyed having the beers the night before with the Notts crowd. Si Burton owes me a spin tho /wink. Salsa did some awesome trade also at the expense of his lunch (Amanda was not pleased!)

Mike and Ame thanks alot for the food and hospitality. Great to have met so many more ppl.

Awesome, awesome, awesome!!!! Says it all really.

A great day out, enjoyed the weather, the drives, meeting so many people for the first time, and of course stickering MATTeLs car

In the style of my great mate Maffa, a quick respect list

* Far and away the biggest goes to Mikey for organising such a great day, and such on a grand scale, well done mate

* Richard (BH), Scoob-babe, SJ-Skyline, Jen and Chris for organising pre-meets, pre-pre-meets, routes and navigating. (Well eventually eh Chris+Jen)

* Salsa-King for the special edition stickers, Gossy etc, for helping me fit them, and Mattel for taking the joke so well

* Both the Pubs for their hospitality and tolerance.

* Everyone who turned up, for helping make it such a cool day

* Finally, the weather, for giving me a scorching sun-burnt face

Top day all round

Mr Mikey, take a bow. Superb organisation all capped off with superb weather. Great choice of venue and hopefully a good few £££ collected for charity.

Big Thanks to Richard (Bitten Hero) for all the hard work put into the Northants pre-meet.

Good to meet more of the Scooby regulars I know only by BBS name and catch up with some more familiar faces.

Finally, thanks to Pixigirl for use of your lounge floor Saturday night for a few hours kip.

Can we go again soon?

Chris

What more can be said. Great day, faboulous weather, great location and great people. Thanks Mikey for a Top Day and thanks to Charlie Whiskey for the fabulous routes. When's the next drive out like the Tour O'Derbyshire Charlie, can't wait matey.

Sorry Scoobypig but I lost you whilst buying one of Salsa Kings lovely stickers and ended up leaving for the drive out without you. We only ended up with 4 of us as well.

Lizzy - I'm up for a Derby meet. Great idea.

Steve Emery - Thanks for offering to borrow your ITG. Forgot to take you up on the offer. I will get one some day honest.

Cheers Guys.

Tonka,

I'm absolutely gutted I didn't see you and the car.

Must have walked round the car park and the field at least five times and I was looking if there were any McRae's.
Hope to meet you at another venue/track day soon.

My current car an Alfa 156 selespeed was parked behind salsa-kings sales pitch, ooops sorry I'm mean car.

Smart looking motor mate, Not sure if it's from Nottingham will check. Nice spoiler. Logiclee I have collected a couple of stone chips on the front bumper, So i'm going to get it repainted.

The couple that had No 14 how's the brake squeel mine went away on the way home chuffing thing. I think the brakes are going to have to come apart.
Any soloutions chaps ( Standard 2 pot's, EBC discs, redstuff pads)

Cheers
