I've been told about a tribute meet in memory of Paul walker this Sunday at the Trafford centre in Manchester, might take a drive down supposed to be over 1000 cars going so if anybody is interested I thought IDE let you all no,
Also if I go I'm wondering if anybody nearby would be interested in meeting up before hand and taking a slow drive down together could meet at a few locations on the way if it helps start deeside onto chester services and so on, just an idea!

Good venue choice as The Trafford Centre never gets stupidly busy on a weekend just before Christmas

Yeah I'm heading to this mate, meeting with the cads scooby club at 5:30 lymm services and taking the scenic route

Traffic won't be too bad as tc closed at 6 on a Sunday and United arnt playing at home so should be pretty smooth.

I'm just hoping the usual weapons don't turn up !!

Anything happening down south?

As cheesy as these films were, my love affair with Impreza and other jap cars pretty much started when the first film was released.

Would be nice to show some respect.

drummerkev

More than likely, but a couple of us have a contingency plan if that is the case, a ride out and then a tunnel run :-) you should come mate, did Ross tell you I wanted that panel filter too?

Its all about the santapod paul walker tribute jan 18th 2014... Got my ticket already, its going to be massive, im sure it'll be the biggest ever car meet in the uk its already at 16,000 attending with 5 weeks to go... wonder what the world record is!

dukeoffenland

Think trax is bigger , it's a general run what you bring day but getting more spectators so it's just like a general show

Out the Facebook page of 13k people saying yes , bet most won't show , yes will be a good sized event , I'm waiting till the day see what weather is like

I doubt that will happen as tickets are limited (not sure what too) and it's Tarmac parking only so pretty sure the far side of the track wont hold that many cars

I would actual consider going to this, but i dont want to get there and be surrounded by Yoofs in Saxos & Corsas

this isnt being arranged by them from what i can gather mate, yes i went to one of there meets as well, and felt so unsafe i left.

I think there will be a pretty diverse amount of people at this meet TBH, i think there will be some bell ends but i think there will be a good few people as well.

I didnt know a couple of people got killed last year at the trafford cruise?

What he said.
I don't get what all the fuss is about.
He was an actor, nothing more.
He died (sadly like many others) in a car accident.
Life goes on so get over it.
