Neofox Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 Hey, i'm down in Cornhill, sometimes trail around Kelso or Berwick depending on who's around. Scott, you work for a local garage?
Scott P Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 na, Im the course manager at the golf course at Duns. How long did you say you'd had the Scoob for? Road warrior where exactly do you stay mate?
Scott P Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Just noticed your 1st post mate Im often in Berwick or Kelso, usually on a Friday night if I have nothing on! Haven't seen anybody about the times ive been in recently
Neofox Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 Ah cool, yeh you wont have noticed me for the past 3 weeks atleast, car is sitting getting engine rebuilt, hoping to have it back on the road in a couple weeks. What age, spec is your scoob?
road warrior Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Sh*t Neofox thats 5 mins down the road!!! Im out in the sticks near Wark! I've never seen you going about, where u been hiding?? LOL!!
Neofox Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 lol! i sometimes have the scoob parked outside the little shop in cornhill, either that or i`m hiding at the house washing and polishing! Mind past couple of weeks i`ve been the using a Citroen ZX so i've lets just say limited my road time to a minimal!! I've seen a couple of Scoobs in the area, Silver Type R in wooler, White Type R, Silver WRX and Green 2000Turbo in berwick, and a Red WRX with silver logos going around the Kelso area. We'll have to meet up and go for a little blast around our gracious roads! show some of the local boys how its done
road warrior Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Hehe! Cant say I've spotted you outside the shop! Ususlly have a nose in that direction when im heading to work. I think it's someone in Coldstream who has the red WRX, not too sure tho. Aint seen it going about either! (is everyone hiding??) Aye, sounds good, still getting used to the car tho so no daft stuff!!
Scott P Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I have an 04 WRX. I used to have Nighthawk Black CTR which I had for a couple of years. Spoke to a couple of guys in a White Type-R scoob one night in Berwick, think they were from Wooler. Agree we will have to meet up sometime! Hows the re-build coming along? Give me a shout if either of you'se are at the rally at the weeknd!
Neofox Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 Its getting there slowly, i`m investigating some upgrades while i`m at it, just my right foot is seriously missing a scooby pedal! Gonna have to go on scooby watch now knowing that we have some educated car drives in the area! Will give u a shout if i manage to get some time off on saturday, what time do the events normaly run too?
road warrior Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 A tell ya it's odd driving something else after getting used to the Scoob! Everything seems so gutless now... Yeh likewise, spotted a white wagon on saturday afternoon on the roundabout in Cornhill, woman driver, dog in back, didnt wave! Will know friday afternoon if im working or not.... (hope not, and the weather's meant to be good on Sat too )
Neofox Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 Yeh i`m still gettin used to appreciatting the full power of the scooby had some heart in mouth moments!!
ScoobyAndy Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 iam up for that anytime. the wr1 you see in dunbar occasionally is a good friend of mine. still waiting for my chance to see him in it. must pester him again soon.
ScoobyAndy Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 thats exactly who it is. everytime i speak to him i keep trying to get him to join... 1 of these days. must fone him tonight actually... hes had a few nice ones over the years tho think the wr1's the nicest hes had yet..
imprezapete Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Yeah get walter out, we want to have a ride in it
Scott P Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Neofox, think the 1st car off on Saturday is 9:00, there are over 100 entries tho so should be on all day Gordy what kinda Scoob do you have? A silver one went burbling past me tonight in Duns, sounded awesome. Almost had to go & get mine out of the garage
Neofox Posted April 2, 2005 Author Posted April 2, 2005 Evnin guys! Gordy Chris Allen at East Linton is doing it, he was recommended by a friend, he has alot of experience with scoobys and cosworths, seems to know his stuff. Cant say i've seen your scoob, remember seeing the evo once. Yah we got to meet up sometime, my engine is currently at glasgow being blueprinted and balanced so i sitting fingers crossed that i might have it for next weekend!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!! There is certainly some serious lacking of decent meets in our area so would be really good to get something organised.
ScoobyAndy Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 Gordy.. Nah walters not. keep harrassin him everytime i speak to him to join up. think iam gonna have to force him some how. mayb confiscate his keys till he does??
Neofox Posted April 2, 2005 Author Posted April 2, 2005 Ah u seen my baby!! She is heartless at the moment, he has the bottom end away getting rebuilt. Yeh i`m well up for gettin together, i`m sick of only seeing Corsa's with bean tins on around berwick, need to see some proper cars!! Seems like there actually is some life in the borders and lothian so need to get some co-ordination and try and get something together.
road warrior Posted April 3, 2005 Posted April 3, 2005 Aye, a wee get together would be good. What is it with the Corsa / Saxo culture here, or is it more wide spread??
