Bracknell Meet?
 
I havnt been looking on here so often lately so forgive me if i missed something (it wouldnt be the first time :D )

Has there not been a Bracknell meet in a a little while or am I totally missing out on something???


Cheers

Steve

Steve, yes we've been having them as normal. I've not posted on here for a while and therefore no thread being started, but the regulars have just been turning up as normal.

I will not be starting another thread this month as we are off to Orlando in 10 days time and therefore will have other things to think about! :D However, the meet will be taking place as normal........

248SPG 01 September 2004 02:42 PM

How do you expect me to remember then :D :D :D

Have a good Holiday mate and I will try and catch up with you at the October meet.

Steve

Scott W 01 September 2004 09:33 PM

Cheers mate.... we'll be back for the one in September - just!

If I remember I'll drop you an email at the start of the week to remind you.... however my memory can be just as bad as yours at times! ;):D

Scott W 26 September 2004 10:32 AM

I've never been to the Bracknell meet...what day of each month is it usually on and where?

Scott W 26 September 2004 05:31 PM

It's this Thursday (always the last one of the month) and starts normally at 7:30pm ish as some get there slightly earlier - well me so I can get my food order in first! :D

It's at The New Leathern Bottle which is in Jealotts Hill - the main road (A3095) that takes you out from Bracknell to Maidenhead.

Scott W 30 September 2004 08:47 AM

Steve, this it tonight! ;):D

andypugh2000 30 September 2004 12:42 PM

I will be there along with a few of the surrey crew ;)

248SPG 30 September 2004 07:26 PM

Sorry I haven't replied Scott.

Only just got back from Holiday so bloody knackered still so I wont make an apperance I'm afraid :(

I doubt I will be missed :D

andypugh2000 30 September 2004 11:01 PM

Well that was a new meet to myself and a few others, nice to meet a few new faces, drive home was interesting :D

andy ;)

Scott W 01 October 2004 08:40 AM

Andy, I was going to reply last night as you lost me on the speed trap bit, but you've since edited your post - was there one, and if so, what time? I was trying to work out whereabouts you said it was because I went past the Harvester heading towards the Hilton (with somebody driving a P1 I think - not sure who it was, but hi!) I didn't see anything.

Sorry got my wires crossed on location, I was travelling towards the harvester giving it some stick and then pulled into the harvester expecting a "tug" as I had a blue light behind me, only to realise as the police car went straight past there was a gatso right on the spot where i pulled in, so as i pulled out saw the markings on the road, if it hadnt been for the copper behind me i would have not been aware of the gatso until it was too late :nono: The guy in the P1 is moomin (Ed), another one of the surrey crew ;)

Scott W 01 October 2004 10:44 AM

Are you sure there is actually a camera there? There is definitely road markings to "fool" you in to thinking there is, but I've never seen one and I do that road every morning and evening to and from work.

legacy dan 01 October 2004 10:47 AM

I know the bit of road you are on about & ther was a camera there about 4 years ago!! not anymore though, i go through it most days in my van at 50mph+ and never seen a flash?

G4Tyrant 01 October 2004 10:55 AM

Where were you last night then Danny boy ?? We missed the rumble of the Hurse mate ! ;)

Scott W 01 October 2004 10:57 AM

Take a look at this as this says that there are no fixed cameras on that section of road.

legacy dan 01 October 2004 11:07 AM

Well you know how it is G, thought i would give the Hurse a rest, so she is all ready for a week sunday. must pick up that coffin install next week??? :)

moomin 01 October 2004 11:07 AM

Is this on the dual carriage way opposite Shell? :confused: I've never seen a camera there, must admit I don’t bother to look any more!

Hi Scott ;) What exhaust have you got? Sounded great :D

Scott W 01 October 2004 12:07 PM

Hi Moomin,

I have a Hayward and Scott 3" d/pipe connected to a HKS Hiper. The exhaust note changes around the 4k mark as I have HKS Headers and they make it sound mental from inside the car! :D I am yet to hear it from behind as whenever I've followed my own car the driver (my wife) has never had the chance to really boot the car hard due to traffic.

I was going to go for it at the lights but decided against it as my clutch pedal is sticking at the moment. :mad: However, when the old Toyota Celica next to me went after you I thought I might as well - by which time you'd already gone. Shame the car came on to the Coral Reef roundabout as I think the blast down the A322 might have been fun! ;)

BTW don't you just think that the stretch past the BP begs to be attacked?! ;):D

It certainly was!!! What the bloody hell was that horn you sounded when you came past me on the dual carriageway...nearly sh*t myself!!!:D:D
Thanks for ticking me off at the lights Dad:rolleyes::razz: Got a little carried away....

moomin 01 October 2004 07:10 PM

Sounds like I might have to dig out the vid cam so you can get an idea :) We come home that way from the Reading meet :D

Pete you must have been doing some serious hooning to get told off by Andy?! :eek: Not that I'm really in a positon to comment :p ;)

andypugh2000 01 October 2004 08:25 PM

There was me doing a nice gentle speed when suddenly Pete decides to hit the floorboards with the Loud pedal, well it would be rude not to offer myself up and i certainly wasnt in the mood for being rude ;) sorry for ticking you off at the lights buddy but there are laws against this kind of behavior :D:D:D oh and my horn is an old fashioned claxton thingy i bought at a classic car show, its VERY loud as you know ;)

take it easy

andy ;)
