Jon, ITBs wont be on now Megasquirt did not turn up this morning; on the plus side i now have a hiher-ish chance of not breaking down Jon i think your electricity source is going to get taken advantage of somehow!#

I nearly filled the car with my stuff, hope my passenger is travelling light!

[Dan318-is]

[Cotty]

Got home 1/2 hour ago , no problems the M20 was clean and green all the way . Hope everyone gets home ok. I know there are a few still a few on the road and will be for a few hours yet.

Just looked at my photos, ill upload the good ones and start a pics thread if someone has not done so already.

[Dan318-is]

Best weekend of my life! Just got in about an hour ago; poor old kedge phoned me he is at lakeside and his oil pump is fucked apparently talk about lucky!

Yep guy, although the bridge saga was a bit harsh it was a fuckin* great weekend, roll on next year and spa too.

[hawkwind]

saw quite a few zone stickers in cars while waiting to board ferry... was in a rather old hymer with a bit of a spoilt green race car on the trailer.

[Kedge]

Have just got back now, long story and i'm too tired to type but my oil pump is pretty dead and got a flat bed home. AA tried to charge us £235 for the pleasure but luckily our european cover covered it (THANK FCUK)!!

[Ziggy]

Bummer 'bout the oil pump mate - was thinking about all sorts of other things I hoped it would be - didn't want to be right! Still, at least it got you back.

Crackin weekend fellas... now for the sig...

I saw the camper and green race car, passed you on the road and spotted at the port for the 6pm ferry .

[1an]

was a very good weekend.

hows your luck kedge. atleast it got you back to england.

bring on next year.

and a big thanks to guy@ white rabbit racing for organising it.

[Dan318-is]

+1 what ian said. Kedge meister get that bottom sump of and have a look!

[1an]

dan if we go next year. spare wheels will be a must hey.

we need more piccys.

[Kedge]

Will do Dan, got to get the car back from Tiv's house first as thats the only place they would drop the car since the cover was in his name! Going the get the filter out as well see if anything is blocking that up as i've had that happen before and it sounded similar, although i guess that meansu somthing has broken up in the engine!

This gray cloud could well have a silver lining in the long run

[Dan318-is]

Dude did the oil light come on?

[Kedge]

No mate, all that happened was the real nasty noise.

[GingerTim]

Hi guy's. Made it back home at 11.30 although we did go via mcdonal's and had to drop col off and unload the car at a dan house. Missed our ferry at 4 even after our (Me, dan and Cotty180) little thrash up the motorway , got there at 3.58! Nightmare! Had a great time! Made the best of the bad weather and kept smiling. At least it happened on the way back kedge, would have been a b***h if it happened on the way there and you missed everything!

[ezagood]

i saw all the dirty e30's getting on the 4pm ferry. i was coming back from germany. mud drifting ???

[Dan318-is]

Just a bit I want to go back

[Ziggy]

I'm sure she won't be there now Dan... you missed your chance.

[Dan318-is]

Haha. You know what jon, i almost (and wish i did now) took a photo! The beauty of hindsight i guess. I wonder if she will be there next year?

[Kedge]

She was worth a pic mate, first thing we noticed on the way out was that she weren't on that gate!!

[e36guy]

Thanks for the kind words fellas. It was my absolute pleasure getting this organised and you are all most welcome. Great to see everyone getting on with it and having a great time despite the rain and it;s most encouraging to hear so much chat about next year.

Which incedentally, will be bigger and better. I have learnt a lot from this year and am looking to expand. Harder standing in case of rain, closer to the main circuit if possible and definately a bar with a couple of screens showing the race!

Anyone want to offer themselves as an e30 rep for next year to organise the zoners?

And get your pics up on the WRR forum!!!!!! We're doing an article for PBMW so you might even get them published!

[Kedge]

Was a great weekend thanks Guy, although obviously there could of been improvements but they were mainly down to the rain anyway.

What kind of pics are they after Guy?

Bring on 2008!!!!!!

[Ziggy]

Will be uploading pics all over the place tonight...

I could probably organise stuff for next year if it's really necessary? Already planning a couple of things

[Kedge]

I dare say those couple of things have something to do with tyres!?!?

[Ziggy]

That doesn't take much planning, but will certainly be happening!

[Rosc0PColtrane]

I think I'd like to go next year. Never been. Will hopefully have a wide angle lens by then too.

[Dan318-is]

Tyres indeed kedgemesiter! And a handy camera to find that bird!

This is turning into an obsession, isn't it...

How was the latest trip?

[Dan318-is]

Was brilliant mate. Went over the millau bridge! That new one in the south that the top gear people went over...



Then afer about 1300 miles stopped in paris for a sunday night with the mrs...





Car only misbehaved slightly when a vacuum hose decided to split but that was fixed, apart from that it was good as gold! Managed 800 miles on 85 quid of fuel too!

Jon who hasn't sent you pictures....
