Chat about Santa Pod

And to top that total abortion off at did an 18+ second quarter mile. Maxfield could have beaten that on his push bike!

Isn't it always the way? More show, less go.

Booty's car throws that out the window.

[kidsinister]

Well, I won't say it wasn't a huge, sweeping generalisation...

[appletree]

Do you mean that purple thing that had half its bonnet lifted and gash mesh in the gap + loads of X-fighter style skirts and spoilers on it???

[maxfield]

[Kos]

i like the concept, not conviced by the excecution.

[oguz327]

It almost works but just doesnt, lot of work must have go into it though

[Pilsbury]

From DVLA:
The vehicle details for L929 CJF are:
Date of First Registration 10 03 1994
Year of Manufacture 1994
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 1991CC

Maybe he should have focused on getting some decent performance before that "interesting" bodykit...

As said a great day out! Good to meet some northern heroes; chris_w, bill gates, neil the MPG meister, danthe etc, and the usual heroes, ian332, damo, ste nelson and of course the usuals.

Thanks to theo for the ear shattering, backbraking ride there and back

[Cotty]

must be something about those high vis veste

my eyes seem to ignore them
same thing happened last year

come to think of it didnt spot you either today mate

stressed out and walking round in a daydream i guess

[Kos]

stressed out and walking round in a daydream i guess

probably, you walked right past mattG and me, i was going to say hello but you had your head down and marched stright passed.

we all have our days like that

[Cotty]

I was wearing a Hartge cap most of the day, knocking out tea and coffee to anyone who wanted one.
My problem is I cant match people with their forum names. I met lots of people today but putting a name to a face is very difficult and I was sober.

We did chat last year.

[spook]

excellent day out, very well organized, so many nice cars, some good quarter mile action, and good to meet some new faces, worth all the effort getting up there, and thanks to pimpmobile and justin for helping to get my car in some sort of order so early this morning,

[zimm_zimmer]

Problem with these shows is that nobody knows what anyone looks like unless you've met before.
As i said earlier i was accompanied by my 4 year old on his high vis mini mountain bike so couldn't really concentrate on anything/anybody for more than 2 mins without him seeking my attention.
We'll catch up with each other one day mate i'm sure

[HUSSAIN]

i tried to have a chat with him today but everytime i went to wander down and have a chat they had went back out for another run........i never did get chance to meet him

[320Touring]

Daz, you cheeky fecker!

I was amazed you didnt run the tech 1 backwards into the pod wall so beardymatt could do the rear arches too

Nice to meet so many weapons (si13 ) and warriors. Had a good long chat with Dips,and met so many zoners I cant remember who was actually there.

Nice day, and I think I'll bring down a Squad next year, even it up a bit for those of us what speak proper(I.E Anyone North of Manchester)

spadge- I didnt envy you with the lil un- missus getting her own back, no doubt!


As for that e36 chavver- I could have taken him in me 320touring

[SPADGE]

spadge- I didnt envy you with the lil un- missus getting her own back, no doubt!

Nothing to do with the missus mate i asked him if he wanted to go as i wanted him to go. I wouldn't have gone if he hadn't have come along. Now he's started school i don't get to spend half the time i would like to with him.

[Silverfang]

Just got up and found the thread (went out in the evening to a foam party at university once i got back )

Good day there, met a few people Dan-318is, Appletree (Loving that 318iS supercharged car!!! ) 320touring i think i chatted to too...

Sides from that think i made one chap a happy guy with a light cluster

[zimmerbimmer1]

I Had a good Day talking to a few mods and zoners.

Tried as I might to get into the 15's my best time was 16.1

Think I will invest in a E30 Zone Poloshirt and Get my user name embroidered onto it.
front and back.

[d6dph]

Daz, I was floating around all day dude, Heard that you were there but didn't spot you

Nice to meet loads of new zoners, So many that I can't remember who was who!

[Simon]

Big thanks on behalf of the team to all those who turned up, and helped out, good day!

[1an]

was a good day, really enjoyed myself good to meet alot of different people along with the usuals.

got lots of photos ill post up once i get a chance, took near 500 photos throughout the day so once ive deleted the rubbish ones ill post them up.

[keri-WMS]

I spoke to Gareth this morning - he's a less than happy bunny!

He got back at 2:20 in the morning, £350 lighter, having proved that a small case diff is indeed NOT man enough for the 3.5 - and bearing in mind that AFAIK the fuel/funds for the trip came from places like the back of his sofa I expect he's also in the doghouse....

On the other hand his broken touring is ALSO in the doghouse.....and as long as they are together he'll be fairly happy at the end of the day!!!
