Thank you!
tThe vids are loading to the the lappy right now!!!

Sorry for lagging behind for most of the day too :roll:
We may have had the biggest engine but that doesn't help when it's stuck in a 2 1/2 ton truck with my fat ass in it!!

We managed to keep up on the second leg though.... the fact we were gibbering wrecks when we got to Ballater is besides the point!! :o:

Does that mean that the road choices were acceptable to those who attended????

Well we were suitably chuffed with the choices.
Gutted with the fact that this was our first zone meet without an e30 and probably one of the ones we'd have loved to have an e30 for :(

We were even more chuffed with the Satnav's choice of route home too considering it followed you most of the way back!!!!

I'd be up for another meet once i change the wheel bearing, tighten the diff and remove all the shite from the boot and back seat so there is no rumbling, knocking or random sh1t flying about on the twisty sections.


Suppose I'd better fix the steering as well, i think it may be the column or rack but will know tomorrow

Yeah definatly! We'd still be in the 4x4 though, but this time i'd bring the video camera and the digital camera for the film clips.
These clips are proving impossible to sort out, sorry guys

The 7th would be 4 weeks from the last wouldn't it?
More chance of us having the spare £80 to fill the truck in preparation OR tax, wheel align and fill the Touring!!!!

Why not go for that one?

I could quite easily fall out with you lot you know....

Ian hasn't shut up about how easy it would be to get one of the beemers back on the road since yesterday.



He really wants to go play properly :D
NO - He doesn't need any extra encouragement!!!!

Fancy making the next one a bit further South?
I was planning a bit of a get-together/drink/housewarming for some Zoners at our new house on the 29th, and as long as peeps didn't "over-indulge" - we could do a bit of a run on the Sunday (30th)?
