Don't bother waiting for me at the Holmfield Arms... i'm far too sensible to be out driving in this weather

 

You do know that it has 4WD don't you

 

Gosh, no. Is that a factory option or something

Hope you guys have a good un tonight.

Kel

 

Thought I'd pop over to say hello to you lot, top turnout as usual. Nice to meet the chap from EVO MAGAZINE and his gorgeous lambo, very lucky guy
Felt like some 15 yo with a camera moby taking pics and a vid of the car
Terrible drive back, with visibility down to 25 feet in places over the tops, torrential rain, very heavy fog and mist, but at least the roads were quiet
See you all again soon, hope you had a good meal.
Chris.

 

Sorry we missed it folks but by the time we'd got home, sorted the pups out and checked the weather again and it was still sheeting down we decided to stay put.

Hope you all had a great night.

BTW i have some dates free in the diary now if anyone fancies a days "Roadcraft".

Paul.

 

Apologies for not making last night. First one I've missed (apart from holidays) I think...

Hope you all enjoyed the Lambo - Simon's a top chap to boot!!

Helen finally got to LBA at 7:30 - after a 4:30am start! She should have originally been home by 10:30am!! By the time I got her home, cooked a meal for her it was gone 9 so no way I could make it!!

Just as well really since the Thrapper is totally fecked. Not only did they not fix the banging on the front right wheel, the front left does it as well so I might have got stuck en-route. They're coming to pick it up with a covered lorry today - so you won't see a Thrapper on the back of a breakdown truck - ha!

Hmm, Scoob in bits, Thrapper knackered - at least I've still got my trusty Honda bike - D'oh!

Hope to see you guys on Sunday at TOTB - I think I might get a lift, it might be the only way to make sure I get there - lol!

 

Jeez Ian - catalogue of disasters mate..... Sounds like Ferrari are very careful about their image.... Although a 360CS shaped tarpaulin is a bit of a giveaway....

Yup - Simon came along in the Murcue - top lad and a stunningly amazing motor.... Shame about the weather, but he's promised 'selected rides' at the next meet, if summer arrives in time.

 

Chris - good to see you again mate. LOL about the 15yo bit. I think we were all the same, in the presence of an automotive icon....

Glad you made it back OK - can't do with any casualties on the other side of the moors....

See you soon!

 

Was just browsing Fchat to see if anyone had come over the same problem and saw this - makes me feel weak...

Thank the stars that mines just knocking noises coming from the front!

 

Ian - it's a thoroughbred mate.....

Still, it might just be the battery cover....

 

Hmm - I'm so fecked off with JCT. 4 days instead of 2 and then they give me back a dangerous car.

Just waved it goodbye - AGAIN! Grrrr

 

I like the bespoke car cover, complete with full CS livery You'd almost think there wasn't one on Sorry to hear of the troubles

Sorry you couldn't make it, along with Paul & Steff. Hopefully see you at some of the upcoming stuff (TOTB (not me ), Rising Sun etc. ) Anybody know where Martin's gone Haven't seen him for a while ????

A joy to see the Lambo last night, and a pleasure to meet Simon. Hope I make the shortlist for one of those "runs" : Shame the Pantera couldn't come out to play, along with the missing CS

So, how does everybody feel about the new venue ?

 

That's why I posted the photo - covered low loader - my a*se!!

Martin was all set for last night and had to bail. He missed the last one since he was on holiday. He's coming to TOTB along with Helen & me. Paul's trying to step by in the afternoon.

 

Pics from last night on new thread....

Ian - are you sure that the CS cover isn't just a very fine, trasparent Ferrari woven cotton... Or something... Still, I'm sure you love it really....
