Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Not a bad idea Dave, spoke to people at the venue but that's not a bad shout.

Some cars It may be viable but on a v6 the repair costs will be astronomical. As dan said too, standard wheels would be needed or something close, probably no service history and also that's got a lot, lot more mileage. Thanks for the suggestion though

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Old man :p

That's great information. Thank you. I'll pass that on as we'll and report how I works out, no doubt he'll join up if he gets it.

Thanks for the info Steve and for the opinions of others. Think he's going to view it on the understanding that he can sell the crap for enough to return it to near standard.

Great idea, oh okay Jonny what's crap about the car park mate? Inadequate spaces or just the surfacing?

Mike wins the official award. 'MFS of the year'

He WILL take those mirrors off too haha, no choice.

Yeah already said to him about the cambelt. Is the timing procedure on the V6's as complicated as 1*2's though or is it just a case of space in which case it shouldn't matter too much. Yeah the interior isn't brilliant but he can't not tinker so will probably end up with PH2 dash and I know he...

Superb, nice one mike. Next monthly sorted :)

Yeah and if you come to the stoke one etc then will try to accomodate you on another :) Win win. Yeah mike's going to let us know of a pub. As for the van, Dave turns up every week in a rolling dog kennel and my car is a rolling shed so there's no issue there

A friend is looking for a Clio V6 Ph1, wish I was in the same position :( He's come across this one, isn't a forum member and asked me. The spec looks okay, it's local, looks tidy enough. Yes the 260bhp claim is crap but otherwise the additions are all top notch. Am I missing something that...

Definitely should :) Details will be in the calender within the next week or so I should imagine then you will also receive a PM if your box is empty just before. The thread is in the sticky sectin at the top of our region.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Muppet lol, you're on there just no space between you and cup_phil above lol.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Date Chris?

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere If it's just the linkage they take a bit of fiddling to get right if you're not used to them as I wasn't but simple enough task.

I thought we banned BillyBob due to lack of commitment...goes to search usernames to see if there's anyone with that name and invite him to the next meet :)

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere On a serious note Dave, It might just be the linkage. When I set my linkage after swapping the box it was all in the wrong place, theres a split in the linkage with a sleeve and bolt so you can adjust it.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Look at it as your car having a as a Dog Leg gearbox mate ;) They have that shift pattern too, they're quite desirable in performance cars and then there's the name Dog leg, suit's your car :)

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Exactly this you just pay the £12 entrance fee Tom. As for passenger when I emailed them they stated it as £12 per person so I assume you pay regardless of car. Still £12 for the banter and watching us all succeed/fail in the quarter mile isn't bad lol. I'll...

Also theres a meet at Shakespeare Raceway, check the thread and vote which date you'd like if you're up for it

You mean make the monthly meet Stafford? If more people from stafford come to the monthly when it's in other areas then we'll do exactly that. As it stands e.g Mike comes to all the monthlys and travels from Stoke so we're now going to move it closer to him. Not too far anyway for you :)

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere No smoke no poke. Also if you cover the track in smoke then nobody else will be able to see well enough to put in faster times ;)

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Haha that's exactly what it'll be like. One of us will have to detour past his house, or the workshop, will probably be there. Mharvey - Sunday 14th October (best for me due to work on Saturday's but can do either) Don - Either DaveDreads - Either Laine_16v -...

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere I won't be camping either, just going either 14th or 27th. I presume either dates okay for you Fred as long as you get notice and then phone calls before and possibly even someone to remind you again on the day haha.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere It's alright for some haha ;) LIST: Mharvey - Sunday 14th October (best for me due to work on Saturday's but can do either) Don - Either DaveDreads - Either Laine_16v - Sat 27th / Sun 28th October (camping) tom172cup - Saturday 27th sbridgey - Either date

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere which date Si?

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Yeah we'll pester you loads Fred. I should have 3 or 4 helmets myself (all for motorbike but does the job) so between us we'll have plenty. As for the 27th that's fne with me, I suggested the 14th as it's a sunday so hopefully we'd have a few more people. Don't...
