Jap Heaven Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 How many Scooby and Jap Owners is over there ? Is there many and how do your meets go ? Does you get much hastle from the Cops ?
Kristan Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Loads of scoobies and other jap cars, we have regular meets and I've only ever been stopped once by the cops (I was going a bit quick- going back to douglas by the cat sanctuary for the locals ) and he didn't even give me a producer! Can I ask why?
Jap Heaven Posted November 11, 2003 Author Posted November 11, 2003 Planning on invading it next year with alot of Japanese Car owners from the UK and Ireland for one of our meets
Dave K Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 You get very little hassle mate, when the scooby group were over we all went down south and on one stretch of road the guy's hit 150. But they did not know that i was at the back of the group with a copper behind me. I only hit 100 to keep him behind me, he did pull out once to have a look but that was it, turned off down the road. You will enjoy it.
Jap Heaven Posted November 12, 2003 Author Posted November 12, 2003 We are hoping to organise camping facilties etc hoping for it to be a weekend or something. We will be bringing some car mags over to cover it and also alot of Jap Cars from the UK and Ireland just need to find someone over there either from the tourism etc to suggest locations for the meet up on one of the days and also some camping grounds for prices etc
dooahhdoo Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Hi Terence, Give these a try for an idea on prices. Or these. They seem to be about the best with showers and stuff. If you really feel like roughing it for nothing then you can camp at Sulby Claddaghs for free, although they only have basic washing facilities. Hope this is of some help.
Cret Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 The camp site at peel is worth a look too. It's dead cheap (like £4 a night or something) and has shower/bog etc facilities there. I camped up there in summer with a load of mates for a night out in Peel. Much more fun than I expected!
Dave K Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Would the camp site just out of union mills be best as its closer to douglas for nights out and the guy is use to noise as its full when the TT is on?
dooahhdoo Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 5.02 am Dave? Bloody hell, get yourself off to bed man!!!
Dave K Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Workin got up at 7 yesterday and aint been to sleep yet!!!!!
Jap Heaven Posted November 12, 2003 Author Posted November 12, 2003 Thanks lads for the help Do these places need to be booked previous to turning up or can ya just invade when you get there and whats the parking like ? Or is it just all fields
robert_harding Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 Hi Terence, On behalf of all the Manxers, ( just come back from there myself), YOU GOTTA GO, you'll love it. your parking is the biggest problem, but what the hey, just go for another spin aroun d the mountain HE HE.
CustomScoobyIOM Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 Lol @ Mean and Green!! Great fun mate. Best to book just incase. And try to avoid TT week as you wont get a good blast in the cars.
