Who's up for a convoy from the Ayrshire/Renfrewshire/Glasgow area to the Subaru event at Knockhill on Sunday. We could arrange places and times to meet up here on this thread.

 

i will meet u in b&Q CAR PARK IN STEVENSON AT 930AM

 

What way do you plan to travel?

Could meet in Glasgow somewhere central. The Quay has been used a couple of times as a meeting place.

 

WHERE DO YOU PLAN TO TRAVEL
FROM IN AYRSHIRE AND WHAT TIME
REGARDS
MURRAY.

 

Murray, it's Troon you're from isn't it? Just head up the dual carraigeway till you get to the end. You'll see the Safeway and B&Q car park. As Steph says about 9:30.
Douglas, we could meet up about 10:30 in Glasgow. How many do you reckon from your area? What quay do you mean, Anderston?

Take J22 off M8 (East Kilbride turnoff) and it drops you down to the lights across from Springfield Quay. BK in there for breakfast opportunities.

Don't know when the day kicks off at KH, but will find out.

 

Doug, the day kicks off at noon. If you plan on taking out any of the demonstrators or the off road experience, this has to be booked at the event it cannot be prebooked. So I suppose the earlier before 12 the better.

 

SEE YOU AT B&Q 9.30 SUNDAY.
RGDS
MURRAY.

Who's going to be Rubber Duck?

Me and a few friends should be leaving from Paisley, so would probably be able to meet up at Glasgow.

A convoy sounds cool, I'll need to get a set of air horns!

 

Hello Folks,

Just got my scooby over 2 weeks ago. Haven't met a single person yet, so wondered if you'd mind me tagging along for the convoy?

I can also join at Showcase Cinema on M8 or M73 Airdrie roundabout, of you are going this way.

Cheers,
Marky-San

 

Well guys, it looks like we're going to have enough people for a good sized convoy so we will have to finalise details.
Suggested meeting points and times so far, Ayrshire Stevenston B&Q car park leaving at 09:30, Glasgow, Springfield Quay leaving at 10:30 Any other suggested meeting points along the route?
Route, I suppose the M8, M80/A80 M876 to Kincardine bridge is the best route from Glasgow.
I assume everybody knows how to get to Knockhill but if anyone doesn't then I suggest that they be in the middle of the group. If we all keep an eye on the car behind we can then signal to the car in front that someone has fallen behind. That way the convoy can stick together. One more thing, a group of Impreza's this size is likely to draw attention to ourselves, so we don't want the wrong kind of attention from Mr. Plod. Keep to the limits guys.
Should look pretty impressive.

 

Might tag along with me '97 sport if thats ok.

If I can kick my *** outa bed to make it to stevenson b&q.

 

two scoobs will be awaiting to join the troops @ old inns shell garage, just downroad from aukinkillins roundabout on way up to KH, post us a rough time and we will be there. cheers,
chris

 

I agree with Bladerider, we will attract attention and it is important for people to drive in a safe and sensible manner.

Once grouped, overtaking amongst each other is discouraged and a reasonable pace is recommended.

See you all Sunday!

 

Guys, before I forget.

If any of you haven't been on the A80 recently, we have 2 new speed cameras to be wary off - 1 is at the petrol station just past Crow wood gold course, just as you enter the 30mph zone - right before the traffic lights. The other is approx 1 mile along the road at Mollinsburn, the next 30 zone, before the light, again just be aware of it.

Painted them that highly visible dark blue colour - divvy's!!

The old bug aint that slow now is it ,do u need to try and keep every 1 together now.

Not like you to miss a corner m8.

Just trying to be a sensible law abiding SIDC member. Don't want to get banned now do I?

We will stop at a large car park giving you plenty of opportunity to show people how not to do do-nuts!

Don't you scare all the s away.

 

If its going to be '***** out' driving, then I'll bring my Cinque Sporting - if that doesnt make you all afraid, then maybe that I've still got 2 pots will. LOL!!

 

bladerider we have to finalise our route so we dont miss anybody !

 

Steph, how about a pre-convoy pub meet on Friday or Saturday evening to discuss route/times etc?

 

Im out in ayr fri night at bobbys and i think sat would be to late to post route, i could meet u fri between 5 / 7 if u want ?
we could probably sort it out now

the story so far,
stevenston B & Q 930am sun to
Springfield Quay. BK approx 1020am (breakfast)
old inns shell garage aukinkillins roundabout 1100am

any more meeting places on route ? post them up ?

 

It was really just an excuse for a pint. Anyway I'll run this idea by y'all. When we're all gathered at Springfield Quay we could maybe try and get a group picture in the Daily Record motoring section for the following Friday. What d'ye think guys?

 

cool il wash the scoob

 

i'll be there at 9:30 sunday morning, can't guarantee i'll be awake but i'll be there that was me in front of you at the weekend bladerider - just wished i'd washed the scoob cos yours kinda put mine to shame shining like a shilling and all

 

Thats Wax Wizard for ye! I thought it was you, wasn't sure though.
Did you hear the comments people in the town were shouting. If it's like that with two cars think what it'll be like on Sunday.
