I'll not have any extra pennies by Jan!? Still be skint from Xmas.m-dtech wrote:Everyone is skint and saving for xmas buddy, at least come january there will be some pennys in the bank and i will have an E30 by then LOL
Either way, meets don't cost 'that' much, if we don't do a tour of the country that is!
I'll be up for one in Nov.
Crail, mmmm. Can be known to mess smaller clubs about somewhat, but you can hire the oval (skid-pan?) for the day and if there's ten or more it works out to be Ԛ£10-15 per head for the day. Can only take one car on at a time but you can throw 'em about all you want.

It's not that kind of skid-pan (if it is at all), it's really just a small oval track with a figure of eight inside all marked out with tyres. I believe they use it for 'sprints' during magazine days and that they've doused it with water for 'spinning around'. When I was on it it was just left as is for 'thrashing about on' as Mickey said. It costs a fraction of the price of the track if people are feeling a bit rouked.320Touring wrote:will you clean all the oil and rubber off my pristine iS after using the skid pan then?
Anyway, the 'rubber' may help hold your iS together...

Never been to crail either but it's closer for me!
Id be up for a meet there but don't really want to take the touring out on salt covered roads.
A bit of sideways fun with no nasty kerbs sounds a good plan too.

it belongs to a good freind of mine and it's a bit special
E30's are quick but even with the BHP to match what Barrys got in his corsa, the weight will hold an E30 back
then there's the Nissan Micra

you can't underestimate these wee motors that go to crail
maybe i'd bring along my wee Mitsubishi Colt for a bit of a drag down the strip

Thing is as above, those corsas are pretty extreme for a corsa. Put em up against an extreme e30 like the 1000bhp e30 or e34 and it would be goodbye corsa.lol
Id actually prefer to go on the quarter mile as iv never done it before. Would it be much more expensive than a new set of tires due to the skid pan?lol.

The boy in the E46 M3 was pulling away from me on the straights, as you would expect with ~180bhp more, but he was holding me up in the bends... what can I say, is it my 'good' driving (maybe not) or his cr*p driving (probably), but either way it was fun.320Touring wrote:sir, your breast size is not a patch on mine!garyp_E30_325i wrote:I could sit in the passenger seat to even up the weight...320Touring wrote:We could race a lightened iS against a stock one

And i've had a hair cut so i'm lighter
and you'll spend most of sat helping me remove more weight from the iS
that explains the fact you dont accellerate very fast- no weight on the throttle!Even though his IS is light he doesn't realise that theres a feather driving my car.lol.
