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

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! However, the meet will be taking place as normal........

248SPG

How do you expect me to remember then

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

Steve

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!

Scott W

BTTT as it is this week.

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

Scott W

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!

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

Steve, this it tonight!

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

andypugh2000

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.

andypugh2000

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 The guy in the P1 is moomin (Ed), another one of the surrey crew

Dont think that Gatso works AP as ive been through it a few times and never seen it go off ...... ?!!

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

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

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

Scott W

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

legacy dan

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

Is this on the dual carriage way opposite Shell? 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

Scott W

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! 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. 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?!

WRXPete

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!!!
Thanks for ticking me off at the lights Dad Got a little carried away....

moomin

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

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

andypugh2000

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 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

WRXPete

All lies....my speedo never went a millimetre over 110mph!!!
(please note this is not a legally binding admission....you can't prove nothing gavvers!!!!)
Ahem.....

andypugh2000

Fookin hell 110 mph !! and that was when I passed you, sorry I meant when we slowed down then I passed you as I never go over 99.9 mph as you know Katie had hold of the "oh ****" handle asking me "is this ******* necessary!!! calm down dear its a commercial

andy

WRXPete

Then please apologise to her for the terrible way i forced you to give it large on the go pedal I reckon i was only doing about 60 when you slowly crept past me

andypugh2000

She was ok, got home, drank 10 pints of stella and gave her a real good beating

she is now back in line and fully operational in the kitchen

andy

Please note no women were beaten or abused whilst making this post

WRXPete

Only before the post....once back in line and cooking the dinner, you were no doubt freed up to make the post...
I hope she's topping up your beer, it's thirsty work all this typing malarky

andypugh2000

new bottle of becks in hand, happy again
