Default *****February ESOC Pub Meet*****




So another year is rapidly advancing and we can continue looking forward to another year of meets and shows.


Last months meet proved to be a fantastic one. We had plenty of familiar faces, lots of new members and the unexpected arrival of local dealer Perkins. They kindly brought along the new STI and Forrester for us all to have a good look at.

Thank You to Rob for once again providing us with another great flyer.

Please remember we have plenty of room and warmth in the pub if the weather is bad, and food and warm drinks are always available for anyone who is hungry. Of course if the weather is good we have plenty of room in the gardens.

Let's see if we can continue with the great attendance at this months meet and again provide a warm welcome to all the new owners that can make it.


There is also the opportunity to discuss any upcoming events or shows that anyone is interested in attending with the club. Also please feel free to suggest any shows or events for us all to attend as a club that you may have in mind.

The family owned pub offers fresh home prepared food hot & cold (food is served from 12 - 2pm) as well as a nice children friendly area for all the mini Esoc members.

13:00pm Saturday 28th February

The Rodney Inn
North Hill
Little Baddow
Chelmsford
Cm3 4tq.

Now the boring part. Please dont act in any form of stupidity i.e testing your exhaust loudness, donuts, burnouts etc. Any one caught or been reported to acting in this manner will be dealt with in certain ways which can lead to being asked to leave the venue. SN accepts no responsibilty for anyones driving style.

Right now thats done lets get some names down. Newbies come and make yourself known to us.

Good Morning y'all! Just to let you know- I'm still alive

It's been a while and I apologise for my absence of late...I've been super busy with work and currently in the process of moving house!

That said, I sadly won't be able to make it this month either, but I'm hoping that by springtime I will be able to show my face again

Hope you are all keeping well.

Have a good'un x

Hey Paul, hows things? How's the lil'un doing these days?
It has been a long time- August I think was my last meet.

Worst. Member. Ever.

I'm moving to South Woodham Ferrers. So excited AND I'll be closer to the meet too with a nice new scenic route to take instead of droning down the A130.

Slow mate, it's kind of evolved from just a basic cage to a bit more.

Cage is now a full WRC S12 design and spec with WRC 3D gussets and couple of additions, also will be linked through to the rear diff so that will be solid mounted to the cage. the diff will have a tubular front cradle. The sills are getting as set of works sill tubes put in so its easy to work on, ABS is being fully deleted and all new brake/fuel lines going in.
Plus it's all gotta be painted and screens put back in.

Basically it's all got a bit silly.
