hi there
i have just seen Gordon's post. i am thinking of going over in mid-end of jan. anyone else interested ?

what i want ot know is how many wanting to go and what date will be suitable by interested parties. i will then speak to Jim and try to arrange it.

what do you think?

The_Gza

Frazer

Gza did you buy a Scooby? I just got my Knock Hill season ticket for xmas, along with my track side car parking ticket. GZA I have taken few pics of your 206 up at Knock Hill but didnt want to speak to incase u thought I was stalking u :-)(don't know your real name)

Cheers

SAM KEITH COWIE HERE I AM UP FOR IT
SO I CAN TRY OUT MY NEW SKYLINE

The_Gza

Lo Neil

Yup - I did get my new car see http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...ThreadID=61324 for some pics

Will be at Knockhill plenty of times next year so feel free to say hello

I'd be interested...how much extra HP do you think the beefier big end bolts would give I'll probably come along for a nosey and run it after I get some extra bits added.

On another note I had a 'seat' in a new TVR 4.5 Cerbera the other day.

If its not going to be really busy, would there be any chance of squeezing my car on the rollers ??

I was up last time (25th Nov) but SHOULD (he says with a hint of sarcastic hope) have the UniChip mapped and all ready to go on the 3rd Jan.

Trouble is, as its the 3rd time I have been to get this mapped (dont ask), I am getting it all done in one day so wont be passing STAR till around 7pm on Thursday so its too late
On the same note, I much prefer going to these things when there are 5+ others going as its more of a laugh

It wont be an invasion John Possibly 1 other person (Russ with the Calibra) may come but it might be just for watching.... I'll need to ask him

Cheers

Rich

keith cowie

your not thinking about a blackpool rocket are you John


KEITH

evojkp

Keith, I've been dribbling over one for about 6 months. I went into Logik at Dunfermline last week and had a seat in an new 4.5 Once I greased ma bum and the salesman 'popped me in it felt good ....mmmm...I've got my name on the list for a test drive when they register the new demonstrator.

Only real issue is will the bloody thing start everyday, so I'm tweaking the Evo and making a decision later in the year. And yes, I'm also thinking about an R34. Life is too hard with all these worries


...John

Sam Elassar

hi guys
can all the people interested please email me. i was thinking about 4-5cars towards the end of Jan but if more wanting to go i am sure jim won't mind. i have not contacted star yet though.

john
so are you still thinking about the tvr then lovely car when it is dry i would go for the R34 though. i looked for one ~(R34) but could find a 2nd hand one and the new ones are just too expensive for me .


sam

evojkp

Sam, I'm always on the lookout for a new car, although my taste is usually WAY out of my wallet size. I'm gonna have fun with the Evo over the next 6 to 12 months then see where I end up. Probably shiny side down in a field trying to keep up with you

keith cowie

john i will give you a run in my skyline
then you will get the skyline bug.
8000 revs they sound so sweeeeeeeeeeeet

ps did you look at that one at ralliart i told you about


keith

Richie1

Aye Sam the 13th is fine by me

I'll definitely be there bright and early-ish. I take it that its all starting about 9AM ??

Richie1

I might just keep the "(??)" bit that you have there beside my name like that Sam and keep ya all in suspense

If it all goes to plan on 3rd Jan then there should be a nice surprise



[Edited by Richie1 - 12/28/2001 6:35:08 PM]

Sam Elassar

richie
let me guess, does it start with a V.....

evojkp

Sam, the usual price is £30. If it was £35 last time I short-changed Jim by a fiver....oops

Richie1

awww Sam, you got me

Like I said, if it all goes well on the 3rd then it should raise a few eyebrows. I am saying nothing as this will be the 3rd time I have tried to get this done

john banks

"me (evo7) derek (MY00) JOHN BANKS (MY00) GZA (MY?) KEITH COWIE (datsun ) RICHIE (?? ) gordon shek (P1)"

Sounds like I'll have the lowest power on the day then.

Derek what are your mods? Gza? I am trying to compare the effects of my mods with others with fairly standard cars.

Sam Elassar

hi john

i am not sure but Gza may have a standard car. derek will have a linked car which so far looks totally standard ie no down pipe, standard air box etc. i think so far he has only got a back box, so they both should not worry you.


sam

john banks

Well they sound like two very useful references.

Will be great to see such a collection of interesting cars. Have you done anything to your Evo yet? Would love a quick ride...

Sam Elassar

no problem i will give you a ride.

i am not sure about the EVO though, i have not done anything to it yet just because there is not that much you can do to the 7 YET. it feels a little bit flat at the top end and i have got a feeling it is running quite rich as well, feels a bit rough at the top end.

we'll see

sam

john banks

You're obviously comparing it to your old Scooby though. The thing that amazes me about Evos is how they go out the box. It seems like they have everything to start with - the right brakes, wheels, diffs, ? better clutch/gearbox, stronger internals. The 7 even looks good I think.

Sam Elassar

you are bang on re out of the box state.that is why i bought it,i mean don't get me wrong it is very fast but maybe i am starting to get used to the power.

well see if makes 300bhp that it should give ?

sam

Gordon Shek

Sam

I hate to spoil all your fun but does it have to be Sunday the 13th? I've got other plans that day and I don't want to miss either of them!
Can't it be the Sunday before or the Sunday after?

Please?

Sam Elassar

hi gordon it could be as it does not bother me either way, but the best thing is to take a vote.

so who is up for the 13th and who is up for the 20th ?

votes please

Gordon Shek

Ehmmmmmmmmmm I think I'll take the 20th.
