  4. I have received an apology from the person involved who was man enough to PM me to put his side of event. Bit of a misunderstanding that went the wrong way at the wrong time and ended with a wrong assumption These things happen, we learn, we move on and we become stronger Grant
  5. Kim, its not normal at any show i have attended North or South or even West of the border and was the worst experience of visiting any Subaru stand across the UK and that is what annoyed me the most, apart from those f'ing Evo drivers warming thier gaylord cars at 0645am, that the National club treated someone like that. If i had have been a "newbie" then i would have would have been even more annoyed and trotted of elsewhere to one of the many other Subaru clubs there. At every one of them i was made to feel welcome and people that did not know me from Adam approached me to chat about thier pride and joy. I even joined one from round about Dartford way as they treated me as if they wanted us to talk about thier cars and club, not growl at me like a pitbull with an elastic band around its balls. Matty, we were just on the other side of the Pro R stand next to the building where the drivers were signing on, we had the retail unit, Merc van all branded with the McRae Vison logo and we had the Grp A Gemani Ford Sierra Cosworth that Jimmy, Colin and Alistair all competed in, with Jimmy doing passenger laps (with a few impromptu donuts thrown in to please the crowd as the McRae family like to do) and the Pirelli simlator with a replica of L555BAT in it. Even though we have funny accents we dont bite but for the life of me i could not work out why no one from the SIDC came over to say hi, even last year when we ha L555BAT down with us not a single person came over to see her. Hard one to explain that when my friends from the charity ask why no one from my own club have come over but after the pitbull experience and as mentioned before i dont want to any part of this club and please remove my Member logo asap. Even though i dont own a Subaru anymore due to my ongoing health issues, i still love them to bits and have made some lifelong friends through the community. This is my first post on any part of the forum since Jan as even sitting here rattling a keyboard brings the pain, my other half, Imy updates all the material connected with the Colin McRae Vision charity, like where we will be and what car we are bringing to what show, in the Scottish section of the BBS. There is also colinmcrae.com, where all the latest event news is listed. Next outing is IRC Rally of Scotland where Jimmy will be driving the 92 Legacy as course, there is a competition on the McRae homepage offering the chance to win a ride with Jimmy through the shakedown stage on the Thurs prior to the event. I have sat in with Jimmy on numurous occasions and believe me he still knows has to make a car go sideways very very quickly Trout and over
  6. I spotted the SIDC lineup of cars when i was wandering about looking for something else. Approached a tall bald guy in the gazebo to ask how do i join the club (jokingly of course but i was merely trying to open a converstaion about the show/club/Subarus) and he grumbled online or over there. I stuck out my hand to shake his to introduce myself and he point blank refused to shake my hand and getting blood out of a stone would have been easier than talking to this ignorant and obnoxious lump of wood. If i was not representing the charity (thanks for coming over to say hi for the 2nd year in a row, erm Not) then things would have went down a different unpleasant path as i dont like being treated in that kind of manner. Litchfield car was the car of stand for me but after speaking to the lump of wood in the gazebo you can shove your membership up your backside. Disgraceful way for a long established National club to attract any newbies let alone ones that have been around for more moons than i care to count Over and Trout
  7. Crossford is about the size of a packet of Wotsits and the Clyde Valley Park with its ickle railway is the only thing in it. Coming from Lanark, enter the village and turn right over the single track bridge then right after the bridge into the park. The noisy Legacy is coming along for the day as well just hope the weather holds up
  8. Trust me big chap all yours needs is a duster and a Subaru badge on the grill and it will be fine
  9. Based in the south side of Glasgow now, car is parked in an underground carpark. Car is drivable to where ever it needs to be as long as it aint snowing of foggy Will be in touch next week to sort some suitable dates with you Grant
  10. 1st, 2nd and 3rd of July It really is petrolhead nirvana Everying internal combustion powered from The Wacky Racers to F1 machinary from a bygone era is not only on show but put through thier paces up the hill. The rally paddock has every notable rally car ever made from Hopkirks old Mini to Grp B S4's to fire breathing Quattros that Mr Rohrl used to peddle up the Col d Turini Even if i was not helping out i would certainly be making this an annual pilgramage, it is that good
  11. How you fancy a look at the banana to see what can be done using your magic spell. Based on Chris's and other results i would like someone like yourself to have a look at what is possible and what is not
  12. 1 for me and 1 for you and i dont fancy yours much 3 ex-Colin cars out today and 3 came back home intact, 97 and 98 Impreza and 99 Focus all sounding superb
  13. 1000% certain it was WL apart from the regi number Sorry for the confusion and yes i will visit Specsavers soon Grunt
  14. Sidc should have a display at a show like this, if the Intergrale owners can muster a dozen or so average examples i am sure we can rustle up a few specials. Plenty of space available in the hall we were located with the Lancia's and maybe one for our southern members to benefit from Updated post 1 just to clarify a minor detail
  15. If you can hang on for a week or 2 then you may be able to get a McRae sticker with the proceeds going to the charity. Please do not by the ones from Ebay as they are not authorised by the family/charty
