Default Essex Takeover 2013 - 4th May - 8pm

The event organizer contacted me a while ago asking if i could muster up some of the ESOC to attend this event.

There will be a SCOOBY Vs EVO , Where scoobys will be parked 1 side and EVO's on the opposite side , and drift & Stanced (steve Bloomfield) will be taking photos of the line ups

Yeah Yeah before you go ahead and post it

Chav written all over it

1. Yes you do get a few of chav / chavvets going in there pimped punto's / Saxo's ! But hey you've gotta have a laugh at something eh

2. BUT you do get some quality Jap / American muscle / Old skool ford rides turning up to these events also ! And the quality metal always outweighs the chavvy metal hands down

3. Plus you get to take some pics of your car with promo girls sprawled all over your pride and joy How can you argue about that

Unless you bat for the other team

Location

The Range
Unit A1
Lakeside Retail Park
West Thurrock
RM20 1WN




Convoy's remain the same ! Slight change in times as location is not so far away

1st Convoy point ..... For all southend way scoobies

We will be leaving here at 6.15pm to converge with 2nd convoy location at M25 / A12 Services for 6.45pm




2nd convoy point will be at the M25/A12 services , Meet up with our Romford boys from 6.45pm.

Leaving at 7.15pm ! To arrive at the location for 7.30 pm so we can get parked up in a scooby line , along with the EVO's

It's a long way ahead to confirm for sure, but don't see why I can't make it

This is a proper old type of car meet, max powwwer, boy racer, essex boyz, call it what you will. One that would have been laughed at by the ESC previous regime .

I've always enjoyed these nights as some nice and £€$ cars turn up but they are also chaos. The police crack down on them like a cheap **** house in Chelsea, following the FB for updates on where to drive to next, last time they used a walkytalky app with a password needed to access the information of the different location points. I just found it too stressful worrying about some tit in a Fiesta Zetec-S hit my Impreza...

To old for all that now,but it was part of my early 20's though but those where different times then racing down crystal palace parade and going to the battersea cruise in the park and then heading down to the roundabout to see others trying to show boat and lose it and smash there cars up.the more you start to spend on your cars the more respect you have for them knowing that if something goes wrong,showing off with big power it's all over.SJ.

LOL with all the comments

Right just to clear a few things up .......

Usually at these events .. The 1st part of the night is purely park up and show !

The only reason that location is being kept hush is to stop the police blocking entrance to the car parking area and moving ppl on !

YES you do get the 2nd part of the night , where a location is given via some iphone app or something similar, to meet up at, usually some industrial estate , for burnouts , drifting , etc Then you are on the alert to evade the police NYPD style, looking for 3rd / 4th locations

Personally , i have never taken part in any of that , and wouldn't want to put my pride and joy in that sort of danger with some muppet thinking his some drift expert driving dangerously ! Never been my scene and i'm not advertising that part of the event on here either !

95% of the time the behavior of ppl is respectful ! Yes once police know where it is , they really can't do much with moving all those ppl on out of the car park ! They just show up, and make there presence felt with driving around and keeping a eye on the events of the night , So everyone is on there best behavior at the car park

It's usually late at night when the chavs start coming out to play , and they start showing up about 10pm as they are looking for the 2nd location antics !!!! .... But as said , it's funny to point and laugh as these BOYS

The organizer of the event states ... " do not condone or except irresponsible driving or behavior! "

Alot of respected car clubs from around the Essex , Anglia , Kent, and Hertfordshire areas are attending this event ! This is going to be one of Essex's biggest car meets !!

Lol mate I think we all did it. I used to tear around in my nova every weekend . From arena Essex to Southend, to Basildon to Chelmsford. The best bit though, was I'd only use a quarter of a tank of petrol and that was about 5 quid lol. No chance doing that now.

Indeed.

If someone even thought about sprawling themselves over my car, ****, *** I don't care who it was... They would be beaten to death with their own torn off limbs.

Lorraine ... You are the exception, otherwise i would be worried

Dan ... Now i am worried

Just to note ... These girls always ask if you would like a photo or not.

And they do always ask if it's ok to touch , lay, sit , knees on bonnet, etc

They are fully aware that us enthusiast are very passionate about who or what touches our cars

I do indeed...

Trouble is finding a girl who is interested in scoobys and not just chucking some hot pants on and jumping all over one!!!

Never mind I shall await in the background for one to come along. Even better if she has her own one, she can jump all over that and have as many photos taken as she wishes
