Saw a 22B tonite between Newton/Warrington with <B>NO</B> Central scoop , just the two side vents. looked like it had been welded over. Anyone know anything about it. Didn't get all the reg but it began R22 ***. Sitting on some nice 18 inch rims by the looks of things.

I'd better keep my eyes open for that - if it's not got the central scoop it's probably because it's got a front mounted intercooler. I won't be trying to "play" if I see it, that's for sure!

PS why do I never see any other scoobys on the east lancs? I've heard a few bbs members commute on it but I've never seen them. It can't be because I'm going too fast, not with the traffic on there these days

I didn't see the FMIC, but i presumed it had one, it kind of flashed by .

I know what you mean Alex.. The traffic on the Lancs is a joke since the work on the Motorway

I've seen Paul Gee in his 22B a couple of times this week on the east lancs near Swinton.

And also a grey Sti 5 knocking about Astley.

As if 22Bs aren't quick enough

There's a white WRX on a private plate that I see in Astley but that's very quick but not seen any others. Must be because I'm in work for 7:30 am these days 'cos of the traffic!

Have you found yourself a scooby yet or are you still looking?

Alex

Hey there fellas,

Why can't I see beautiful cars like that around??? I've seen the Grey STi, but other than that only the White RA and The Slag.

Still not seen you about Alex, and I have been looking. Where bouts exactly do you live??

What (or who!) is The Slag???

I wont put up exactly where I live as there have been too many scoobys stolen recently - I'm in paranoia mode driving home through salford at night - but I'm not too far away from the Bulls Head. You should be able to hear my car coming now it's had a magnex system fitted

I have a 22B with a front mounted intercooler and anyone who thinks it is quick is sorely mistaken.

It pulls like a train...................................set.

Question

Hi guys,

I've seen 'the slag' a couple of times in the Trafford Centre car park, very strange taste and very very loud! Each to their own i guess .

Tony.

Cheers all

Andi

Oops, how wrong could I be!

The car I saw was a five door anyhow. Just when i thought I'd finally seen ya! Andy, must have been your bro, didn't see much of the driver just one of the cars from your house.

Did any one see the Evo razin it up tonight? Evo 6, foreign plate, I saw him go down Manc Road past St Stevens toward Astley Hall, and then i heard him go back again a few minutes later. Beast of a car and a nice bloke, he gave us a flash anyhow

Cheers

Andi
