ScoobyAndy Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 sorry to hear you having to work Peter. though if your through this way sometime and you bored give me a shout and i'll take you a stretch of the route.
ScoobyAndy Posted October 1, 2005 Posted October 1, 2005 Me and Scoobyandy did a fair bit of ground work for the cancelled run. Anyway we have come up with a nice drive round the Lothians and Borders that will take about one and a bit tanks of fuel (amount for a heavy modded car) to complete from start and back at a Optimax station. Run date: 02/10/05 Start Point: Lidl Foodstore carpark across from the Shell Petrol station in Musseburgh Start Time: 16:00 leaving 16:30 (Changed) Run length: 190 miles Run time: 3:30-4:00hrs including stops Other Information: Includes midway Optimax stop for the more modded cars requirements, pace will be kept fast and sensible. for those of you who like to play a little and dont mind a slightly "rougher" bit road i also have a bit i reffer to as my "rally track" its only a short section and a minor detour from the planned route. i would be more than willing to take any of you through it. if your interested we can discuss it on the night and you can let me know.. Andy

imprezapete Posted October 2, 2005 Author Posted October 2, 2005 << guys as i explained i still have a few little problems with the car and wont see chris till tomorrow so looks like i wont be able to make this in the scoob unless anyone offering to take me as a passenger !! >> Maybe Neofox or grant can take you? What to do is come up to the meeting point and we will see if we can work something out.
the squiggle Posted October 2, 2005 Posted October 2, 2005 Got a small tech problem with the turbo on the car. Not a bad problem but not fixable at the moment Gumball is heading through but i will need to button this thing back together. Grant

Chris said he wasn't going.
the squiggle Posted October 2, 2005 Posted October 2, 2005 Chris is on his way to the RV point I dont wanna risk major damage if the turbo throws a blade I am dissappointed to say the least as this was my driving weekend but i cannot risk a blade going AWOL Grant
