[Aaron182.]

p.s - im 26 btw (as you were probably all wondering how old I am after reading that lol) how old are you guys?

23 next week :/

 

[The Fatty]

Happy 23rd Birthday for next week! I'll probably forget by then unless it gets mentioned again! how much is your insurrance on a 182 at 22!?!! My 1.2 was just above £500 a year when I was 22! I imagine a 182 would be £1000+?

 

[Aaron182.]

Thanks

Everything declared, and with 9 points and a crash. I paid 1300 for a year. Fully comp, can drive any car, windscreen cover, and free courtesy car.

I don't think that's to bad tbh

 

[The Fatty]

That's really good considering your age and the 9points!!!! They all for speeding?!

 

[Aaron182.]

Nope. No speeding.

All for the crash. Driving without due care and attention.

I am 28 @The Fatty so I am far from young although when you meet me I have been told I look 19 ! ha

Na driving in the rain was so much fun when I went to karting last. Really tests you and you do a few 180 turns too!

Maybe we are different then as I want a social meet too bout time I met you guys!

 

[McGherkin]

bout time I met you guys!

Get to karting then

 

[plymcl172]

will do my best, see how the money goes !

 

[The Fatty]

Nope. No speeding.

All for the crash. Driving without due care and attention.

Crash?! what crash??

 

[Aaron182.]

I had a crash nearly 2 years ago. put a 206 on its roof :/

 

[The Fatty]

wow. Didn't realise you could get points for crashing! Were other people involved?

 

[Aaron182.]

Nope. Noone else was in the crash as such. Yeah they do you for driving without due care and attention.

 

[plymcl172]

I bet you havent been caught 'Racing on the highway' like me though!

 

[The Fatty]

Nope. Noone else was in the crash as such. Yeah they do you for driving without due care and attention.

people dont normally get points for crashing though... is it just if you roll the car? If so, id be rolling it back over befor eI called anyone lol.

 

[Aaron182.]

Driving without due care and attention carries a penalty of 3 to 12 points I believe. Which I got 9.
I didn't call anyone. Someone did tho.

 

[The Fatty]

but what defines it as drving without due car and attention? Could it not have been an honest mistake? people crash all the time, I was just wondering what defines it as this if no one else was involved?

 

[Aaron182.]

Beyond me tbh. That's just what the judge decided.

 

[McGherkin]

Alright, times and e.t.c. have been worked out. We'll be getting to St. Eval at 12pm. It gives us half an hour to play with and get some grub (they have vending machines there but obviously that's not fantastic, so you may want to bring something to eat) before going on track.

Those from Devon/up north, I'll be starting a convoy at Saltash Services, just off the Carkeel roundabout (the first roundabout after the Saltash Tunnel) MAP

I aim to leave at 10:30, so get there 5-10 minutes before.

I'll send out a PM to the SW members in a minute confirming the final details.

 

[McGherkin]

Just checked the weather. It's rain I'm afraid.

 

[shaun172]

wats happening about this?? anyone coming from bridgwater taunton area

 

[McGherkin]

It's still on. I'll still be going anyway.

Shifty wanted to but can't, he's the only one from your area who was going I think.

 

[McGherkin]

CANCELLED.

Not enough people to justify it I'm afraid.
