I hae to admit it Martin but you may be right haha. I haven't sent the mass PM yet so i'll send it in half hour. I'll say autoworld, renault willenhall. 8 still
 
The Drag racing event that we are holding a meet at will be going ahead this Saturday (27th October)

We plan to arrive at 9:30 am at Shakespeare although there will be a convoy meeting at Renault Willenhall (Autoworld) WV13 2QU so meet there about 8am, we will leave at 8:10 am.

The venue have confirmed 'There is no need to prebook admission tickets or RWYB'.

It also states that 'Helmets can be hired for a nominal fee. We also hold your drivers licence until the return of the helmet on the day.'

Price is £12 per person admission and then a 'track fee' of £25 which gives unlimited runs.
To compete all you need is a vehicle. This will be checked for safeness by the raceway's knowledgeable scrutineering crew, seatbelts, suitable clothing, a valid driving licence and a crash helmet. Crash helmets are NOW a requirement of the Raceway for all drivers taking part in any RWYB Public Track Day

PLEASE BRING BOPTH COPIES OF YOUR LICENSE IF RUNNING JUST TO BE SAFE, they state you need a valid driving license.

I'm always right:rasp:

Although it is a good idea Matt that you suggested autoworld;)
 
Mandy has just said that there is no way that she is going. She cba with boys and a drag strip...its not her thing.
 
Lol. Olivia isn't coming either. I did ask, but she refused. I'm not gonna moan. ;)
 
I'm getting my cat spring clamps changed tomorrow, I hope this sorts out the rattle and power loss,
or the cat'll need to come off and O ring mesh gasket thing replaced as well.

Plus I still need to bodge my battery down so it doesn't move.

Also I think I may have sorted a helmet, it's old and it's full face but at least I won't have to spend any more money.

The car was friggin' quick before the exhaust rattle,
I hope I get it back to full strength and embarrass a few 182s.

I can do mate, I just hope someone else brings one so I can get a good shot of the dog kennel destroying the world
(or it's gearbox), although it does mean a kilo or two extra weight. lol

Will they let me have a camera bag loose in the passenger foot well?

Haha. It's an easy thing to forget. Lol. I took some decent shots once I learnt how to mess with settings. Ill bring mine along too but I usually end up chatting away and getting the piss took out of me ;)
 
Yeah man, I'll try get some half decent piccies. :) Looking forward to it. It's been a while since I've had a good session with the camera. Probably out of practise.

Meet you there then! ;)

As doubt you will be driving there so early....not good for a Rep to miss the event that he has organised! :quiet: :drunk: :cheers:
 
Just make sure you always have a drink in your hand mate,
that way everyone thinks you're getting as pissed as everyone else.

Right i've had the cat clamps and gasket changed, although it hasn't stopped the rattle.:mad:
But I think it's back to full power now.

I've secured the battery down with an old sports bag strap,
and I now have a sump tray to hide all the crap, although it's only held on by one bolt but it only need to last a day.

Tomorrow morning everything that's not bolted down is coming out the thing,
it may help me beat some of you by an inch.

But it doesn't matter if I win by an inch or a mile, winnings winning!!!
 
i hope my old man gives me time to pop along for an hour or two. need to ' clean ' the diesel sut out of my scaffolding pipe
 
I won't be running. Will be there to cheer you all on though.

Bringing a flask of coffee for ME as I know it will cost a fortune for Coffee over there...might even bring some sarnies if I can be arsed to get bread tonight!

Haha I know, completely forgot but it's okay it's Amie's friend not mine anyway so I'll go but do what Dave said. I never get hungover etc really but wouldn't drive so don't worry, I'll be there bright and early leading the convoy (possibly the wrong way) haha.

Me miss it...nah. It's cheaper than a night out too and can hardly afford both lol.
