Yes once i have got myself sorted out with a race prepped car and all the bits i need i will start up a thread :happy2:
-
I hope the bloody weather improves for next weekend!!
-
I hope the bloody weather improves for next weekend!!
Me too, I played cricket on Saturday in the cold and wind with showers. Not fun and games.
This weekend I'm going down to North Devon for 4 days to test out my remap on some brilliant twisties, so rain will be most unwelcome! Getting my WALK fitted this week hopefully as well. :grin:
-
Im a bit of a newbie myself and cant make this meet. I am gutted, not been to one yet! I live very close myself. Will have to keep an eye out for another local meet.
-
That's a shame, but i'm sure we will have another one soon.
-
Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday. Hope the weather sorts itself out! :happy2:
-
So who is meeting up at Coombe 1st?
Can meet Jus and Matt locally and convoy up :happy2:
-
Weather is not looking good!
-
Yeah its not looking promising;
sunny and rain thurs and fri but clear friday night - weekend hasn't been released yet on the bbc so will check in a few days.
whats everyones feelings towards the meet if the weather isn't great - id rather rearrange if people don't want to commit to the day in case the weather isn't brilliant so then its not just three or four people.
if the number stay good and everyones happy (maybe we double check thurs/fri day and evening to see the forecast) then ill meet at coome before hand :happy2:
-
Don't change the day now its been set for weeks. If it rains, it rains. Its only a bit of water. See you sunday :happy2:
-
P.S. I'm going straight to grasshopper.
-
:happy2:
-
jimojameso said it and i concur.
Plus it will mean a couple of drinks at the watering hole for shelter :happy2:
P.S - anyone got a VW/VAG brolly :signLOL:
-
:happy2: sweet liking the commitment!
Ill defo be there,
MVB meet at sains and drive over the coombe before grass?
-

Dave
yeah think i will go, do you know which companies would be mapping?
-
Check out JKM's website or give them a call to confirm but i think they are a main REVO dealer so probably just thier maps are available.
Like Justin said today though i dunno if they'd have time on the day to map and data log your car with 30+ power runs on the same day, worth checking first to save a wasted drive down there :happy2: unless your happy to pop down for the rolling raod day anyway :drinking:
Dave
-
They won't map on the day as they wont have time but they do revo, apr and superchips/bluefin :happy2:
Was looking at prices on their site yesterday
-

-

I think u can only get launch control with DSG? :confused:
-
Yeah launch control is only on DSG cars from standard :sad1: have to rely on your right foot and timing like the rest of us :driver:
Dave
-
Ahhh i suppose i could install a wot box get both launch and anti lag (not that anti lag is needed with k03's but still makes that nice pop) i swear i read that one of the tuning companies can do it...
Im.gunna go.to tuning werkes and get a 5 hour revo trail and then ask if i could get the apr trail to make my decision. just gor to book it in :happy2:

:happy2:
-
Is this happening net week, someone going to make a thread? :smiley:
-
Sorry guys, can't do the 27th as my business is picking up and managed to land quite a big weekend :happy2: How about one evening during the week we could all go for a drink (its light until late now aswell)
-
i would prefer a sunday meet as not keen on a weekday as i haven't got the time.
-
I'd prefer weeked, but could do weekday
-
I'm OK for either :happy2:
-
Weekday evening meet be good :happy2:
-
Everybody want to arrange a meet soon? Especially with this lovely weather?
-
What about an evening next week? How's thursday for people? :drinking:
-
Thursday is fine with me :popcornsoda:
-
I can do Thursday :smiley:
-
Yep Thursdays good for me too :drinking:
Dave

Not really up for the evening meets in Croydon, I will be driving past the Combe lodge on my way home, don't really fancy turning around an hour later and driving back there. Let me know when another weekend meet is happening.

Tell me about it....... just got in from work having got totally soaked as its been raining non stop all day :fighting: :fighting:
-
Think im going to have to bail on this.
With TBE fitted and mapped last friday, then a rolling road day and inters this month think im going to have to cool it on the fuel lol.
See some of you at eurospec and inters though :happy2:
-
Ok lets leave it this week then :sad1:
-
Was meant to post something on the wall and say the weather is quite bad at the moment and may be worth leaving it this week for another weekend sometime soon and hopefully when the weather is better.
-
I will keep an eye on this thread as I would like to pop along to one, hopefully on a nice sunny day!!
I know where Grasshopper is but can someone confirm the location for Coombe Lodge?
-
Hey bud, to be honest its looking a bit poor for thursday but you should definately come along to the next meet - If not Jussa (Justin) has kindly arranged a Rolling Road day down at guildford for the 16th - If you have a look on the shows, events and meets it should be quite near the top.
The Lodge is in croydon :happy2:
-
We defo calling this week off then? Was supposed to be meeting Marv there and getting my climair's and some for guys at inters too :confused:
Dave
-
I didn't think he was coming - but he has asked me to bring them to the rolling road day to give to you before the inters;
Latest weather report says rainy with lows of 11'c and highs of 14'c so may be worth waiting for a nice sunny evening next week or a weekend at some point?

Just let me know, I can make any evening this week??
Maybe we should all meet at Purley on Thursday night :signLOL:
-
I'm on holiday from the 26th so one this week in the evening would be good :)
-
Hi guys,
Looking forward to coming to the next meet in my new motor. When's the next Sunday meet?
Cheers,
Ian.
-
Chaps,
Its been a while so lets make this happen sooner rather than later :party: Ideally a Sunday would be best for me as i really can't be asked to come out after work on a weekday!
Some new faces will be great and on that note i think i will pass it over to Matt to arrange the finer details.... :booty:
-
how about next sunday? thats good for me plus i just spent the best of today detailing it so it should look fresh for then :jumpmove:
-
Next Sunday at the grasshopper? I'm in
-
I'm also in, which one is the Grasshopper again :chicken:
how about next sunday? thats good for me plus i just spent the best of today detailing it so it should look fresh for then :jumpmove:

-
Be rude not to really :drinking:
Here's hoping it turns out nice on the day 8)
Dave

I'm in :happy2:

-

Fish

-
Is this happening?
Fish
-
Its a nice day for it. I would still go if a few people were going.
-
Now that the weather seems to be a bit better we should arrange a meet :party:

Fish

Ok come on lets get another meet arranged while we still got some nice sunny weather :drinking:
Not seen most of you lot since Inters so we've all had loads of time to get some new bits and pieces or ideas :signLOL: and it'd be good to catch up
Dave
-
Should be free over the weekends for the next few weeks. Someone pick a date
-
Sunday September 9th 12pm??
Anyone going to edition38? Might go on the saturday if anyones up for it?
-
I would really like to go to the next meet, whenever it is.
The weather isnt going to be with us much longer......even though its still so unreliable!
-
Either the 2nd or 9th of september is good for me as i'm working the weekends before and after those dates :sick:
Dave
-
I'll make my debut if it is on the 2nd. I can't do the 9th.
-
either day is fine for me, will go with the majority.
-
I'd like to come along if that's ok?
-
Thats fine. See the new thread! :smiley:
