Silver WRX classic on the M4, turned off at Junction 15 onto the A419.
 
I followed you in my DBM classic for quite a way on the M4 (turned off and tried to follow you down the A419) and gave you a nod at one point. Great sounding exhaust! Do you have anti-lag fitted or was that just flames on lift off with a full de-cat?!

Brilliant either way, my passengers were highly impressed!

Hi Iwan, it was me. No anti lag fitted just a decat with vent to atmosphere dump valve. I only got the exhaust yesterday from ebay for a bargain price and as far as I can tell its a 5Zigen system.

I was on that road just Monday! How is it no one ever bloody see's me?

Iwan 11 March 2004 10:01 PM

G'day Bruce :D

It sounded amazing, and it was popping and flashing every time you backed off the throttle. Even in daylight you could see it from quite a way back. I think a few people thought 'what a hooligan' as you pulled away at the lights on M4 junction 15, classic!

Are you local than? I'm in Highworth, just North of Swindon.

Iwan 11 March 2004 10:03 PM

Soulgirl, what car do you drive?

Its my neck of the woods and i often see Scoobys on the A419 on my way to/from work.

Mine's a pretty much standard MY99 UK Turbo 2000 in DBM, with an oval Prodrive/WRSport exhaust.

Iwan I'm in the Abbeymeads area North Swindon, there are loads of scoobys around here, Soulgirl I'll keep an eye out for you.

Iwan 12 March 2004 06:14 AM

Small world Bruce, i'll keep an eye out for you. I'm in Abbeymeads most days...

Ah! Bruce, have seen you about, especially around the lights near the Friary. I live on St A Ridge.

I feel a Jovial Monk cruise/meet coming on....

MattW 12 March 2004 10:52 AM

Lol - my local, and second home ;)

Iwan 12 March 2004 11:20 AM

Matt, i don't suppose you work in the building with the tube on the roof do you?

Iain Young 12 March 2004 11:34 AM

I drive that bit of road every day, on the way to / from work in Newbury and I don't think I've ever been spotted (or spotted anyone else) :(

Blue WRX STi7 Prodrive.....

bruce 12 March 2004 12:05 PM

A local meet sounds good, there hasnt been one for some time, Iain weve waved in the past on the back road route to Newbury, across the A4, you turned off just past the Starting Gate pub, it was sometime ago though.

MattW 12 March 2004 12:15 PM

Iwan, no I work in the town centre (Zurich)

Iwan 12 March 2004 12:55 PM

Just seen my twin, almost. Another V reg DBM classic but with gold wheels at the traffic lights outside the Motorola building, got a wave - anyone local?

Iain Young 12 March 2004 08:21 PM

Oh yes, I forgot about that Bruce :D

About time we had another Swindon meet, but make it in April not March (I'm busy every weekend this month)
