French car show - 5th June 2011

[Jordi17]

so without a pass you cant view the cars in that stand?

 

[Owen]

The pass you need to get on a club stand, ie cliosports

 

[Struggler]

when we stay "get on the stand" we mean be admitted to park your car on the stand!!

youre welcome to visit any part of the show you like!!

 

[Harpham]

Your not wrong there! I was getting so pi*sed off!

The 1*2's arent so bad for it tbh. Still a pain to line up perfectly though. Here's mines from last year:

Anyway, bed time. Nice 4.30 start for me. GREAT SUCCESS!!!

[Brian]

If it's windy again today, please be very careful when opening your car doors.
We will do our best to ensure you all park with plenty of room.

See you all in less than 4 hours!

Thanks

 

[todd100]

really gutted im not going

 

[Gally]

Have a great day guys and gals!

 

[Brian]

Not bad.
Thanks to everyone that attended and came to say hello, greater thanks to all those that helped with parking and sorting the marquee.
Even more so, all the admin team in attendance - awesome.

Dispite the wind and rain

 

[Harpham]

Good to meet you Brian, and the rest of the admin crew. Oh and all the members that I spoke to today!! Im really looking forward to ClioSport Saturday now!

I left just at the right time. Just as I pulled out, it started to rain

 

[Brian]

Almost forgot, the massive bar of Dairy Milk I accepted on behalf of the team was very much well received.

Certainly cheered me up!

Cheers! I won't say who from because you'll probably get abuse!

 

[Dash]

Was good to see yet another great CS turn out, and well done admin for all your hard work. :approve:

 

[jenic]

Cheers! I won't say who from because you'll probably get abuse!

It was Paul.

My personal highlight of the show was Brian being asked where a guys membership pack was who joined just 4 days ago lol

 

[.Andy.]

Really good day! Nice to put some names to faces Nice to meet the admin too. Welldone fella's, Good job!

 

[Gally]

Seriously? That's erm... mental.

I do hope Tom never heard that question. Can you ban someone in person? I'm not sure how RL works anymore.

 

[The Boosh!]

We had a few " Were is my membership pack I joined yesterday and it's not here" but other than that it was a great day tbh! Every one was very sociable too which was a change!

 

[Harpham]

It was Paul.

Cheers Mike. (No problem Brian btw)
That was actually epic. I like how Luke instantly passed him onto Brian. Like the real life forum, y0!

Really good day! Nice to put some names to faces Nice to meet the admin too. Welldone fella's, Good job!

I actually wanted to speak to you properly and have a look around your RB mate. Looks mint anyway!!
Only spoke to you for that second in the line for the parade lap (which was quality btw).

I know, Followed you in the convoy, then didnt see you again until the parade lap, Thought to myself, I'm gonna stop and say y0!

I had a good look around your RB, What a beauty

Yup, exactly the same lol. I was thinking on the way down, ahh yeah, I bet we'll be parked together so ill have a chat then... Didnt happen
And thanks... Gotta love the RB's.

 

[Hixle]

Good to have a catch up with some of you and put a few more faces to names today. CS stand was decent and the parade lap was a nice touch, but didn't think much of the rest of the show tbh.

So shattered now, been up since 4, lol!

 

[ElkWorks]

Not a bad day. Daughter played up like a goodun and drove me insane. And had to go in the astra as i couldnt pick the clio up from fred yesterday

 

[benniboy]

Really enjoyed today. Thanks goes to the CS team who done a good job of getting us sorted.
Thought the parade lap was good, plenty of videos of that im sure.

 

[Tom]

Seriously? That's erm... mental.

I do hope Tom never heard that question. Can you ban someone in person? I'm not sure how RL works anymore.

Luckly the two people that asked did it when i was out of earshot.

Thanks guys, i get up at 6am expecting for a day of fail, then 180 of you orrible lot turn up and make me proud.
Cheers guys, without you FCS would litterarly be half the show it is today. Admin are very very pleased.

And well done for being sensible on the parade lap, reputation intact!

Heres to FCS 2012. see you guys in a couple of months at CSS

 

[Gally]

Benton seal of approval!

Well played guys. Everyone knows what parade laps can be like!

 

[Jon.G]

Was fairly good today, shame I was quite hungover and forgot to get cash out before entering Luckily I had brought a 'dinner' of some description with me.

Good to meet the admin team as well! Everyone was very friendly as usual

Roll on CSS.

 

[Tunst]

Shame i had to leave before the lap

I did a total of 500miles and only seen one RS and that was on my way back up

 

[Jimbo_M]

Top weekend! Although i was goosed this morning off the drink lol.

I thought CS done them selves proud with a great turnout and some quality motors on show. It was nice to meet a few people and have a look at peoples car in person! Roll on FCS 12

 

[montana]

brilliant day, enjoyed the parade lap and my 15 minutes on the track afterwards (even if my standard exhaust did melt my bumper!), the clio boys attendance put the rest to shame

just got in now, time for a brew in the new CS mug!

 

[Feirny]

Was great meeting a lot of new faces! Despite Dan trying to get us to eat Ants.

Got a nice pic of Revel's car with Boosh in shot too, and may even put a cheeky video of him up, too.

 

[D4N13L]

I went to this today and i have to say it was a real let down. The cliosport stand by far put the others to shame. A real tribute to both the staff and members.

I thought the whole day really lacked something. The attendance, i thought was really poor compared to other years. Cant wait for cliosport saturday as it will just be us and no other plonkers.

Whos car broke down on the parade lap? (i have a pic)

My favourite car of the day was the yellow v6 trophy. Shame he put it in the gravel.

Rs tunings r26r was mental blasting round the track.

 

[tom172cup]

This was my first time there today had a really good day. Lots of epic cars there favorite was the impreza drift beast pops and bangs daddy.
was nice to meet a few new people. will defo be going on track next year.

 

[A_J]

Jenic

That was me who asked about the membership
Was that really your highlight of the day?

I didnt like it so dont know if i go next year

 

[Owen]

Despite Dan trying to get us to eat Ants.

They actually improved the more you ate, I actually quite enjoyed my third one.

Edited to add, thanks to the adminz for their hospitality and good banter, even if it did mean I missed half the stands!

 

[Dave..]

What you have to remember is that Brian does these membership packs and posts them in his spare time. He doesn't do it for a living, and isn't paid to do it.

He does a very good job of it, but sometimes it may take a few days.

 

[Rob]

Was nice to meet some new faces and chat to some old ones.

Sorry to those who I didn't recognise in the morning, I was not in a good way.

Girlsname, I didnt even see you :-(

Did anyone meet you this morning after cause me and kris182 was waiting in cardiff services for over half hour and no one showed up not even scott ,
we started to make our way up @4.35am and met hodgins on the way

 

[MDP91]

Good day today, still feel like the show needs some more 'stuff' just lacks something to keep me interested all day. Parade lap was great, apart from me almost going across the grass in the chicane at the end of the main straight! woops!
Shattered now though, so off to bed once ive picked Japspeed's tyres out my hair and ears.
