  5. I got into work this morning and was quizzed about my authenticity as a living breathing humanoid!!!! Apparently, as coincidence would have it.............................2 different guys in the office have mates who were on the road to Crail at the weekend. Boring? at the same time. So......as these two random cars were positioned near each other on the back roads to Crail...................................... 3 cars approached from behind at a rapid rate of knots, overtaking one by one the number of cars that were driving quietly along. The third car unfortunately didnt make it back into the gap in time and smashed head on into a oncoming volvo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That car was a subaru impreza i dont think anyone was killed but wasnt sure who the poor scooby driver was and if hes alright??????????????????????
  6. THERES EVERY DANGER HE'LL END UP WITH CREATIVELY SORE BAWS IF HE KEEPS THAT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  7. HI Below are the details for the SCREWBALL RALLY. This event runs in a couple of months. Has now limited spaces. Should be a real blast!!! I intend to take part in this and think given the distances and timescales, its probably best for 2 bodies and 1 car alternating the driving. I know, and i caused it that theres been hilarity, upset and headaches regarding all the talk about gumballing over the last few weeks............................but is anyone else interested in doing this? seriously. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCREWBALL RALLY 2005 SCREWBALL? JOHN O GROATS TO LANDS END DATE: 30th JUNE - 2nd JULY COST: £450 DEPOSIT: £150 ENTRY OPTION 1: 1 car with 2 people ENTRY OPTION 2: 2 cars with 1 person per car Entry fee to the Screwball covers either option 1 or 2, which ever is chosen will include 4 nights in hotels, breakfasts each morning and tickets to Max- power live. The Screwball is for all makes and models of cars, modified or not, although modified would be better. Also its for the people like my self who have watched things like the Gumball, Cannonball run etc but can't afford the massive entry fee. Screwball will begin on the Thursday 30th of June from John O Groats, but entrants and passengers must be at the hotel the day before (Wednesday 29th) to register, this will also give the Screwballers a chance to get to know each other. On Thursday we will drive from John O Goats to Birmingham, sounds like a piece of cake when you read it like that, but it ain?t, its a 576 mile journey, give or take a couple. It will be a long drive but that?s what its all about, if your reading this and having doubts then stop reading cause this run ain?t for you, this run is for the real car enthusiasts its not for the faint hearted. You will arrive at the hotel in Birmingham and have a well earned rest, you will need it. The next morning, Friday 1st of July the cars will leave at the same time and start the last leg of the journey, a round trip from Birmingham to Lands End and back to Birmingham, which is 600 miles. And that will be the end of the journey, 1200 Mile road trip, on the Saturday 2nd of July you can relax have a well deserved drink with the rest of the Screwballers and tell each other all the stories from the first ever top to bottom Screwball Rally.

  9. Kev Call Grant @ AWD Motorsport (PERTH). I got pads yesterday from him, MINTEX Fast Roads (M1144). He removed my seriously thrashed, cracked, overheated pads and inserted these bad boys+changed the brake fluid..................................................crazy days get up to a serious speed then get someone to throw a penny on the road. chance are you'll stop on it. expect to pay approx £100 plus labour (front in total) and less for the rear.

To me £470 is 10 tanks of juice or new tyres and a strutbrace or whatever. to that piehead, he probably took it out his wives bridge money for the week. so presumably if i get caught (which i hope i dont) doing 120mph along the M74 at 0200hrs with no other cars on the road, i wont end up in BAR-L with an orange in my mouth reading letters from Big Tams maw for him while my mortgage isnt paid and then lose my license the day i get out????????/????????//???? very good and that picture was him smiling when he came out the court.......................................................
