Default Xmas Run Out

Ok chaps. Most years we have a Xmas Run Out to some roads that are normally chocker or closed () any other time.

This year will be no different but the dates are awkward. I was looking at the 27/28/29/30 Dec.

The fly in the ointment is they are weekdays but between the Xmas and New Year weekends.

Stick it in the memory bank for now and I'll bump the thread up in the next month or so.

The 27th or 28th would be best for me as they are bank holidays as Xmas and Boxing Day fall on the weekend, otherwise I might not be able to make it due to work.

Any chance of a visit up to the ranges this year as well?

29th or 30th is good for me, but may be able to make the earlier dates if it's a mid morning start.

We had better not 'push on' too much as remember there will be an Evo joining us and we wouldn't want to leave him behind.

You probably will Ty, with the way you have been spending money on your car.

Can the same be said for Civic's aswell then Ty??!
Two sides to every story on the Clio front, and i have seen the in car video of the by-pass, and it does look like a legitimate overtake but someone forgot to check their driver side mirror by the looks!!!! Will try and get it off him to show you!!

I'll have the French piece of sh*t on that carriageway is it true that he went around the roundabout a few times in order to get enough of a gap going?

Plus I seem to remember him making a nuisance of himself on the run back down from Lower Chapel, from memory he was all over the back end of Nick's Evo 4 when there were no places to overtake.

The Civics weren't a problem and I'd rather own of them to one of those French rattleboxes (and yes I have owned Clio's and a tuned R19 16V so I know how much they rattle), it was the smoke from the rear tyre that was concerning me as it was smoking worse than his engine.
