Central Scotland - 2004 1Q meets

[CAZ1562]

OK guys/gals.

Need to get my finger out this year and get some meets arranged. Due to work/family commitments last year nothing was planned so I aim to do things this year. I'd like to arrange a few pub meets, a few runs, a go-kart event & get the Police Winter driving techniques chat/meet arranged for the Autumn. I also would like to get the backing from DRIVE Subaru Falkirk to host the Police event (as long as the planned dealership refurbishment is completed in time)

How would Sunday 22nd February suit for our 1st meet. Not sure where would be the best place to meet, Stirling, Falkirk, Dunfermline, Cumbernauld & Livingston are all 20-30 minutes away. Nothing to stop us rotating the meeting location over the year.

Please post your interest here.

Edited to add - My website will also carry details of any future meets.

Work commitments allowing I will be there

[Nelsdir]

I'm up for some of that

[wrxmania]

Sounds a good idea to me - what happens at the police driver event - is it a talk or instruction??!

Interested though, time permitting,

I bought my car from Drive,

Hi Brian,

This concept was sucessfully used back in 1995 when I was the Scottish events organiser with the [Phsst mode on] Vauxhall Car Club [Phsst mode off]. The Police came to a meet we had arranged in Stirling and gave us hints and tips for normal day2day driving, winter driving care & techniques and brought a few goodies (pens, ice scrappers, leaflets etc). That day we were very fortunate to be given a small hurl in the back of the car for 10 mins seeing how the driver conducts himself on the road, with regard to position, observations etc AKA ROADCRAFT.

I had tried to arrange this last year but it went a bit Pete Tong and I couldn't get a venue sorted out in time. However this will be better organised for the Autumn 2004. However I can give you a hint that no driving practicles will be available this time. (new policies I believe).

[CAZ1562]

Wassup Dougster,

Have you given up with the white wagon m8 ?

BTW - Did you manage to get hold of Martin ?

[p3dro]

Yeah derek I should be cool for that if its in the afternoon and no footy on

[dougster]

Nothing from Martin as yet.

Induction is in but still waiting on radiator, knocklink and FCD.

Need ABS sensor checked and fancy getting a catch tank and cleaning all my IC pipe work.

Busy, busy, busy.......

Also Tar-ox discs and APS recirc DV if I can manage through to EBH to get them!!!!!

[CAZ1562]

Good Good Good

[zeolite]

Any ideas on a location yet? I am thinking of going down to Charterhall to check the repairs to the circuit as I am thinking of doing the rally there in April so I will be on the road.

[CAZ1562]

I'm thinking of over in the Livingston direction, due to most people coming from Edinburgh area that have shown an interest, its also handy for M8 (Glasgow people)

EvoJkp - Whats the place you used last month for the SN meet - Was it Whitburn ?

[scuba dou]

Would you boys come North if we had a few cars from the NE come down....to say Perth?

[CAZ1562]

I'd say no problem whatsoever, if we get it regular and rotate the meeting points then we could accomodate a lot of people.

[Nelsdir]

Is this Sunday still a goer Derek?

Wifes b'day and she don't want to spend much of it in a car park with a bunch of Scooby owners so I need to make careful plans
