ClioSport Festival 2017 - Book Tickets Now!

[Ol’ Tarby]

I think I may have. I'll check when I'm back at home on the laptop.



I honestly think this one was the best one yet. Not because of things that was happening, but the social side of it all.

It's great that everybody is on the same level and relaxed. It gets more socialable every year but this year was very cool.

Completely agree mate, defo the best one so far for me. Couldn't walk further than a few steps without stopping for a 15 minute chat with someone. Took ages go for a piss

The marquee at night was a little quieter than usual, but I think because the weather was so nice, everyone was sat chatting outside instead

Just finished recovering from this weekend and what an amazing weekend it was.
Massive thanks to all that were involved in organising CSF for all your hard work making this at great as it was!
This was my first time and it was amazing, meeting so many people, talking cars with like minded people, seeing a great variety of clios and other cars and thanks to @Potatoes for taking me out on track for the first time! Also thanks to @Gus for being so accommodating and making us Yorkshire lot feel right at home, to steal your phrase, you're an absolute legend! To top it all off I won a prize in the raffle which i didn't expect at all! Will definitely be attending next year and can't wait for it now

This was my first one in a couple of years.

Yep I totally agree with the marquee. Normally we've had rain but this year was spot on.

I think the pizza place kept people outside too. The wait was long which was to be expected as it was being freshly made, but it was bloody lovely!

 

[Jekyll]

How many of you baldies had a burnt head by the end of the day?

@Daniel @Sunglasses_Ron @Phase1sr

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

This was my first one in a couple of years.

Haha was good to have a decent chat with ya mate :up:

How's the sunburn?

 

[tommy g]

Decent mate, similar mods to mine then bar all the poll bushing. Coilovers next for me as the apex springs are just to soft for track.

Yeah I know what you mean with the springs. Tbf the cup suspension isn't bad considering.

You too mate.

All good here, but then I'm not ginger. [emoji23] [emoji106]

I love you for not tagging me in that Mark! I'm just nicely tanned, and we sat and watched the track day on Sunday until 12ish.
I wish I could remember everybody's name who I chatted with, but I'm royally s**t at remembering names so I'll just thank everyone for a great time.

The name badges really helped :wink:

Agreed, It's very good for OE gear. Didn't like Blyton at first TBH, that first corner coming onto the track baffled me for a good few hours, there's little grip and it goes on forever, got it after a few hours and really started to enjoy the track after dinner. For a totally flat track it quite technical, Port Froid is brilliant.

That's my second time at Blyton on the same layout and love it tbh. Nice little technical sections and suits these cars well. I hate that corner at the pit entrance it makes or breaks your lap times.

All good now but yours was like a Belisha beacon on Saturday night 😂

Mines a bit Rosie but Daniels factor 50 was a life saver on Saturday.

I kept forgetting your name was Paul and was about to shout OSS!

 

[Gavin.]

What a brilliant weekend, it taken me to today to come round from lack of sleep. Thanks to Nik, Ron, Kirsty, Luke, Dan, Brian and all the rest of the ,mod/admin team for organising, see you again next year!

 

[leedsboy]

Just want to echo all the above comments, had a great weekend!

Thanks to the admin and everybody who helped put it on and thanks to @dann2707, @Gus and all the other guys (I would tag but id probably forget a few people) that invited me, @OssPoop and @RenaultVirgin into the group, had a right laugh.

Already looking forward to next year

 

[Clio_fool]

I kept forgetting your name was Paul and was about to shout OSS!

That would still have gotten my attention mate:up:

 

[leedsboy]

Or, as Gus calls you, Oss pop 😂

 

[Ricardos]

Feel a bit more human today after a marathon 13 hours sleep.

A massive thank to you to all CS admin who made this event happen. From start to end you all worked tirelessly to give us something to remember for a long time ahead. A big round of applause to you all.

Just to echo what the others have been saying I believe CS17 was the best event to date. I met loads of friends from either on here or TR, didn't take many photos as spent time out on track or mingling, chatting to people. Spoke to people I didn't know but good vibes and conversation.

I would go as far as saying you couldn't meet a friendlier bunch of people on here. In between the Clio technical advice there's a lot of people here with good banter in between which for me creates a decent vibe throughout the club.

Long may it continue

I was going to but then I thought that you had elements of dark and grey hair so I didn't bother!

Great to see you again mate, it's been a long time.

 

[DaveDreads]

Despite spending all day on track, no one seems to have a single photo of the dog kennel. 😞

 

[Ricardos]

Great to see you again mate, it's been a long time.

Too long mate, always a pleasure seeing you. Pop along to a North Weald meet sometime, it doesn't matter what you're in its the catching up with friends.

 

[Scrooge]

Not going to clog the thread up, so here's a link to mine.

Some great stuff in that album! Didn't even know you were there Greg!

 

[Feirny]

Nor me you! I missed a few people there!

 

[Knuckles]

Yeah they were a good idea. Maybe next year they could go in the ticket pack. Of those who have track time with a little note asking if they are willing to taxi? The pick up point needs relocating too!

I went out in the rs16. It's very impressive. It was nice to catch up with Paul too as I've not seen him in a very long time. I miss my Meg F1 even more now!

Yeah we'll have a chat about how to give them out next year and where to position the sign.

I'm so jealous that you got to go out in it. I really wanted to, but I'd ended up offering to take loads of people out so didn't get time lol

 

[Scrooge]

Nor me you! I missed a few people there!

Definitely a case of too many people and not enough time

 

[Ben]

Nor me you! I missed a few people there!

I thought you were at a wedding!

 

[Feirny]

Exactly!

I didn't even think you were there!!

Why didn't you come and find me! I feel a bit sad now 😞

 

[Feirny]

I thought you were at a wedding!

I was yesterday, got my days mixed up.

 

[Feirny]

I did, I asked so many people where you and Colshe were. I was chatting to Dreads and he didn't have a clue, nor do I think he realised who I was, not that it isn't f**king obvious.

See you next year x

@Knuckles I love the fact you are still rocking the "I Slow Down For Hookers" sticker.

I had to take mine off

Great to meet you bud. [emoji41]

We said that last time!

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Come to Trax and I'll give you a big cuddle x

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Not happy @Feirny !

 

[Feirny]

Not happy @Feirny !

Soz! [emoji85]

@Knuckles came and said hello to me!

Sorry about that the chain was obviously a bit long

 

[Filters]

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for a great weekend, especially Filters and Knuckles for the passenger rides (Both cars were ace) and of course Chris for the none stop #Bants! We had a top weekend with top people!
Can't wait for the next one, I'll be bringing the little Metro for sure.

You're welcome fella glad you enjoyed yourself.
Make sure you bring the metro next year, sounds like it's a little belter from what you were saying!
