As this is the same day as the ESC Posers Cruise I am sure there will be many Subarus around

Can I ask if you have cleared this with Tesco's

We have a very good reputation with them and would hate for that to be tarnished SHOULD there be problems


Should make it a very busy night for January though

GOOD LUCK

Hi, just to let you know all is cleared and there won't be any mis-behaving! Your meets are exactly the sort we are looking to encourage within the moddified scene and very nicely timed with your meet i might add! that wasn't coincidence!
I hope to see many of you there and catch up with the people that i know there.
take care and if you wouldn't mind.... The site only went live today so it'd be great if you guys could post your attendance on it.

Thanks all and we'll see you all soon.

Ha ha ha... we've found the comedian!
The site isn't about members?!?!? we have no members and no forum. This is simply a front end to the database to show who's who and what clubs will be in attendance!
Keep your eye's peeled on there mate and you will see the attendance figures raise. The site went live 20 mins before i posted the flyer on here.
Thanks for encouraging comments though mate!

Cheers Dazza,

The site didn't need to be anything complicated, just a simple front end to what we hope to be a great event.

Simon Hill is the IT behind the site, we got him to do the web design and database stuff as well as sort out the domain etc. We're cars mate not IT

We're not hijacking and hope it isn't seen like that, primarily were organising the event for the opposite reason and bring people together for a more community spirit. Were out to show the young guns how to behave and moddeling our meet on the ethics here

Tomski and Tiny

I'm sorry you view it this way.
If there is a problem with inviting you all to a joint 'meet' that i may add I myself have attended your meets many times in my sti prodrive then we @ mufdrive can move our meeting point in basildon to a different location.
As stated before. All we are trying to achieve is a community spirit and a chance to meet some people from other car clubs to build on the inter-club relations for the show season.

I have attended many meets with SIDC and unfortunately we are normally left to our own devices and our members don't really mingle with the other clubs.

As primary organiser of this event and having attended many of your monthly meets I honestly can say that I'm shocked by some of your negativity.

Your meets have always had a great atmosphere and well behaved individuals. I come from Cambridgeshire down to your meets in the scoob!!! thats why we thought inviting you guys would be good. In addition to that... we all had to start somewhere! I myself had a Uno as my first car it's nice for the young un's to aspire to something and seeing some of your cars you may even get a few more members by showing them the error of their ways!!!

Now... if you feel threatened by us trying to pass your good name on to many other individuals then thats fine. I can have the route changed and set up a different final collection point.

Please feel free to discuss and let me know your wishes.

Finally... I'd like to thank the few of you for adding your names to the list. If necessary...AND I HOPE NOT (depending on your organisers views)... should we change final collection point and you guys that have your name down still wish to attend i'd appreciate your help in recommending another meeting point in basildon thats on or just off the a127.

Kind regards

MUFdive,

I think the whole point of the ESC southend cruise, was to hit Southend with an influx of Scoobies in one hit . I don't think you should think of taking it personally if the club (ESC) members do not cruise down with you. Tiny has built this cruise up, over a long time to get it as organised as it is now, and cruising down to Southend 'Nascar' style ..... A mix of clubs cannot recreate the 'Nascar' style, unless they are all of one Marque .

IMHO of course.

lol... so you do 'scooby only' events. You never have other marques there??? Are you sure????
Evo for example
GT3 another example
oh and who could forget the rx7 boys turning up?
Another of your meets i attended I followed in a few scoobs which brought their mates along in a (sorry for swearing) saxo and a fiesta.


I agree with what you are trying to achieve but can't you see what we are trying to achieve? As I said guys, It's your call as it was your venue first.
We'll wait and see your general consensus tonight, after that we will ammend our flyers and advertising if neccessary.

If it helps in your quest to 'hit with influx' (whatever thats all about) and you wish to be part of a massive road block that you normally try to create. you guys head up the run. we'll let you all go (not that a lot of people will get a choice in the matter ) and continue the run into southend behind you all.

We're not out to create an atmosphere, we're out to try unite forums and improve the standard of meets and shows.

******THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE A MONTHLY THING, IT'S A ONE OFF******
You'll only have to put up with us for 1 night!

Tiny's done a great job sorting out things down there and it's great to see such a commited turn out month on month from you guys.

****IMHO OF COURSE*****

Not that I have ever been to an ESC Posers Cruise - but this does seem like a little bit of a hijack to me and an opportunity for the less desireable element to give the ESC cruise a bad name by street racing wannabees trying their luck against the scoobies.
