Saturday 14th June is the secret meet , which is also doubling up as the June meet.

Sunday 13th July is the Skeggy Run , which is also doubling up as the July meet.

You have to be on your game to keep up with LJP young man .

I'm going to that aswell mate on Sunday. Give me a ring and we could meet up for a beer if you want as for once I'm not taking the Scoob , I'm being chauffered in a modded Megane Coupe the shame of it, think a cap and sun glasses may be in order.

yeah sure mate sounds good i would go for the cap glasses and fake moustach is it scooby modded or fast car modded?
i went a few years ago and it was a decent day to be fair best bit was the noise of the f1 car it sounds similar to rob's when he actually allows her to be driven properly

mind you i didnt see him blowing his gearbox on here so maybe i should take heed and save some money on repairs

I've been to the last 3 and they are really good for a free event. Shame it's moved from Donnington Park as it was easy to get to but I did queue for 2 hours to get in last year.

The megane is tastefully done just some alloys, a new spoiler and some tints, and not to mention a few little goodies that have been thrown in under the bonnet to give a lot of faster cars a scare at traffic light Grand Prixs.

It's my mates who came to Scooby shootout with us, he'd love a scooby but at 21 the insurance is a no-no, so hats off to him what he's squezzed out of the megane engine. Still it doesn't stop me winding him up about getting a proper car instead of a shopping trolley.

at 21 he should have a scooter or pushbike but yeah i know what your saying it amazes me when you hear of kids on here getting quotes of 1200 etc at 20 when i was that age insurance companies wouldnt even quote me

at least he will fit in with the crowd i am taking the corsa 1.2 44bhp as not sure if my scooby will get over any bumps etc and dont want her broke again

not sure if the 44bhp will match the megane though

Sorry mate. Just can't get over the shame, would much rather go to the rally show, but arranged this before I knew it was on . Might try and convince him we could go in the Scoob, no disguise required and I will get my Jap fix for the day

you shouldnt let peer pressure get to you go for the disguise but fancy arranging a meet on the same day!

i have my nephew coming down so it may well be he wants to go chatsworth in the scooby but will have to see what sort of stuff is there?
as i dont want to take him if its like the shootout i.e 2 scrap dealers 10 burger stands and 1 jewellery stand
if there is a bit more i may well be able to come though and that is the reason for the r*****t day as it has a bit more for the next generation although as far as he is concerened (10yrs old) subaru's are the best cars by far so i have got him talking sense

I'll have a chat with my mate see what he wants to do. Shame the two clash as for a free day you can't knock the amount of motor racing you see at the renault world series, cos lets face it motor sport ain't cheap to watch in this country.

if you want to drop by for a cuppa, pm me and i will send you my number.

The schools are quite good down here, but it is the fantastic views and the "village" feel wherever you go.

I miss the meets and the banter, but they are starting to do it the LJP way a bit more down here now.

Hope to see you guys soon. maybe 800 scoobs at the McCrae gathering
