Over the road from me is a retail park that attracts the local boy racer brigade on an evening. They all sit there having there macdonalds and throwing them out of the window before revving the nuts off the cars and beeping the horns until 2am.
Until now the cars have all been of the same ilk...
Guys,
Paul has got back to me regarding a rolling road day at rs tuning. The date is the 23/03/2013 and we need at least ten cars to make it work.
With ten cars the price would be £35.00 each for a run.
I'm just confirming details but will probably have to take some kind of deposit to secure...
Anyone fancy one at some point?
I'm gonna want a run after the new bits to see what I'm making.
RS tuning would be the obvious choice of venue I'm guessing.
As much as I loved standing in the freezing cold at the last topo meet I think it's time we had a run out in the cars.
Ive got a route in mind that I've done before leaving from Leeds (ls15 just off the a1m) and am happy to lead on that one but open to other suggestions.
Anyone fancy it?
I think we can all agree that 2012 was a bit pants for meets / attendance of meets in the Yorkshire area which is strange as there seems to be a fair few owners in the region.
So, what can we do to make it better?
I'm not aware of any Yorkshire reps at the moment which is a shame but what...
Drove to Norwich today to pick up this up today. The seller was a nice dude who'd fallen on tough times hence the sale.
Anyway, it's a 2005 subaru impreza sti with 36k on, full subaru service history, few pro drive bits (but not full pack) and in really nice nick.
Drove faultlessly on the way...
My old man bought a MacBook Pro 15 2.2 from pc world this year. He did it on a bit of a whim and can't really get his head around it after twenty years of windows!
He has therefore asked me to sell it for him. It's as new in the box and has only been used a few times. It's also got word, excell...
Ive never been to this meet but apparently its now become an epic collection of supercars, modified cars and classics.
It starts from 8am on the 14th October 2012 at Specialist Cars in Malton.
Here is the blurb from the pistonheads site;
"It is that time of year again, the last big run out...
This is probably going to be chavvier than a pair of trackies tucked into socks but thought I'd post it on here anyway.
Sunday 7th October 2012 from 1200hrs at the xscape overflow car park at castleford.
Details are here (if the link works).

You basically register and get entrance for £3. Judging by the quality of cars that have already registered it looks like it could be...
After chatting to some guys at the TOPO meet I've decided to try get a little early morning blast organised for Sunday 19th August. I was going to make it September but I'm working every weekend so had to do it a bit earlier.
Ive got a good route in mind - nice and flat with good views! Nothing...
Nice little get together today and big thanks to all that came.
Ive put this in clio media as there was a few clios there as well as other marques!

Anyone interested in a little get together next Sunday 15th in the afternoon?
Phil organised one a few weeks back at gateforth mushrooms and seemed like a good opportunity for pics.
Obviousley open to all Yorkshire members to attend if they fancy it.
The location is gateforth new road just...
Just came across this video on the Rallye forum.
Looks pretty quick and the new owner seems happy!

I've been asked by mike to put a little thread together for this in his absence.
For those not in the know, TOPO stands for The Old Post Office and is a pub just off the m1 near barnsley. It's a lovely little place with a nice car park and friendly towards the car enthusiast.
We had some...
With the mrs expecting our third baby ive had to go down the family route for the second car.
I was gonna go for a mk4 gt tdi 4 door but always thought that Golfs should be 3 door not 4 door so went for a Bora.
Bora 1.9tdi 150 Sport,150k with FSH - a few marks here and there and a key scratch...
I have done a search on these but couldnt really find anything definitive regarding them. Ive got sportlines on my cup but ill be honest - I want it to go lower. Im not going to do track days, just the occasional spirited drive so with this in mind I dont want to be spending half the cars total...
Rang up a place in York for a quote to remove tints from my two rear windows and back window - £90!I was expecting to pay maybe £40 nips but £90 is a bit steep.I might even attempt it myself......
Was a nice day today so decided to give the clio a clean and took some pics.

My mate has left me with his car for a few days while he goes to a stag do in Newcastle. Had a few drives in it and its not a bad bus to be honest. I dont think id own one as im not a fan of turbo cars really but its certainly quick!
Gave it a wash and took a few pics to make up for leaving it...
