Wev'e been invited by another car club to attend their event at Alford (Transport Museum) on Sunday 4th August.

Arrive from about 9:30am onwards.

All the Subarus will be in a display area of their own.

The small sprint track will also be in operation again Cheapest track event there is, as it costs a mere £5 for a few runs on the track.

There will be the usual mix of other car clubs, trade stands, food vans etc on site to keep everyone entertained during the day.

Hope for a big turn out this time

John

I'll be able to pop past and meet some folk as I will no doubt be out there Golfing on the Sunday.

The Alford track - do you even get into 2nd gear?!?!

Alford is about 20 miles west of Aberdeen.

tis ok
i found it

 

Sounds like good day! Put me down as a provisional atendee.

 

John,

Which car club is there on Sunday 04th August?

L

 

It's the Capri International Club who are there. They've invited us out for the past couple of years.

You do actually need 3rd gear on the straights, though only for a few seconds.

Iti's usually a great day out, with plenty of time to laze about and chat to other owners, watch some cars on track etc.

John

 

yeah Yeah yeah

Me and Prob 2 others will be there!

do we have to book anything by the way and will an audi be allowed in

 

No booking required - just turn up on the day. Entry fee will only be a few pounds.

Audi - I'm not sure if the Quattro Owners Club will be there or not, but they'll let you in anyway

John

 

Was there last year in the rain

Good larf though, that was the 1 where our Dek eneded up playing recovery service 2 one of the Cossies & had to drag him outta the mud Track is a bit small but hey for a £5 wot d u expect.

BTW John dunno if I`ll make it this time round I`ll mail or bell u nearer the time if I can

Pete

 

Pete - I remember those photos. Kept us amused for days

 

I've just been informed that the track at Alford has been completely resurfaced with very smooth and grippy tarmac

If you think you might be able to attend this event, can you please let me know, so I can inform the organisers how many cars might be attending, so they can allocate us a big enough display area.

Cheers

John

 

Me and 2 mates will be there
1 scoob
A TT
and a mint pug 1.9 GTi

Can we sneak into the display areas

what time does it start as well??

ta

foz

 

Foz,

there have indeed been display areas for Audi's and Pugs in the past, so there shouldn't be a problem.

The first post in this thread does mention the start time

John

 

I'll be there if it's dry, if it's not I'm staying in bed

Stuart

 

Yeah no danger i will be there, sounds like a good laugh...

Might even get the car on the track although it sound as if it's shagged but who knows, maybe someone there will be able to tell me if it is about to go bang !!

See you there

boyner

 

Ill be there as I get home on Thursday

Sadly I won't go out on the track as the car has only covered 500 miles since the full engine rebuild + STi clutch,etc

Seee ya!

Russell

 

Weather isn't looking too bad, so hopefully see quite a few of you there. Not sure what time I'll get there (got other things on as well), but I should make it out at some point during the day.

Apparently Tut can't make it, so there's hope for a Scooby victory!

John

 

Hey folks

Well it was an ace day as it was pee soup down here.

Nice to meet some of you folks and nice to get some pretty sound advice as to what mods to start with.
Can't wait to get the ball rolling.

Wuz when did you say that pipe would be available?

Craig Mac

 

Apologies for the no show.

It's a long story but originates with me misbehaving last night.

I'll catch up with y'all next time

 

Who's was the westfield ?
The one Jools was giving some?
Was it a cross flow? Bored out to what? 40's or 45's?

Craig Mac

 

Sounded as though it was a top day out

Gutted that I couldn't make it along Simply not enough time or good luck on my side, but hopefully next time.

John

 

Had a good day was on the track in my silver TT and a mate in his white scoob- a good laff

got loads od video- green wagon, black STi, Red MY98 with bodykit, little white corsa caterham etc etc!

Some arseholes driving on the track though

 

Green wagon, that'll be me

Any chance you can upload the video of me on track or send me a copy ??

Stuart

 

Dont know how to convert to MPEG- do you need fancy equipment?

 

You'd need some kit to do it, like a video capture card or firewire link to your camcorder. Camcorders sometimes come with software to convert the video to MPEG/AVI.

Perhaps you could send me a copy on VHS
