LOL

OK, It was truely a beautiful day and early reports of frost bared no fruit. Although the roads were wet, the glare of the low winter sun was not going to put us off some excellent driving...

<note to Lord Harding>
John! I though you were supposed to be doing the write up for True Grip
</note to Lord Harding>

Anyway, here is the first of many pictures from my A202 Fujifilm....enjoy

BadgerBells's RB5, Rusty's DBM Sport and Bobmac's Turbo'd Sport



Edit to add another angle

Quite right so, as more than ably demonstrated by this Scottish 1.8GL



Nice Back box , forgot to ask which one it was though



Ps. the above rear shot, that can be our little secret

but what do you do for boost
That's easy, I use Mr Cadbury's finest

Nice one flossy
I believe you Bobmac


In preperation for the much discuused Kielder stage , a quick pit stop was in order so snow chains, etc could be fitted...

....it was at this point that one of the raiders was found to have actually cold bloodedly murdered a poor innocent part of the wildlife Obviously, in order to protect his identity, I have photoshopped out the registration of his Mean Green Wagon

Much fun was had through Keilder, hardly another vehicle in either direction

Once completed however, the previous pit stops's modifications needed to be undone. But that was not the only thing that needed changing ....so that's why Bobmac was in such a hurry to get to the toilet

Not one but two RB5's



More WRX's than you could shake a stick at



Close up of TSL Tarty bits Trouser, where are my freebies for all these mentions you are getting



Superb bonnet features Bobmac

Following on from popular belief that the standard Sport wing is a bit girlie , my quest then began to find a suitable replacement..cast your votes here

a) Classic Turbo



b) Prodrive



c) new age with risers

Finally, after a roller-coaster ride along the old military road (straight as a dye, but full of dips ) we made it to the pub for a mighty banquet.



My thanks to John (Lord) Harding for the time and effort he put in to organising todays event and to all who took part in making it a safe an uneventful but yet very enjoyable day out

Right, who's organising the next one?
