Lauren 2259 Report post Posted March 12, 2017 I was thinking, that Neal. As we head into spring an early morning drive makes more sense, as you say before the roads clog up. I think we encountered a great number of church goers this morning! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special_K 26 Report post Posted March 12, 2017 It was a good day! Perfect timing too as it only just start to rain when we finish! Thanks for organising this!! Be better if i knew the roads a little better too! 1 Neal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 111 Report post Posted March 13, 2017 No worries half the fun is in the organisation. Trying different roads and trying to link them together. I'll be posting more on my next ideas in the Manchester thread late tomorrow definitely a show and shine event and dawn run where we rendezvous at one location set off as the sun comes up and stop for breakfast. Need some special roads for that however. 2 Lauren and lewisw reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rich 378 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 @Neal what's your suspension setup? It looked pretty close to grounding a few times on some of those roads, I'm sure I saw a puff of dust once in fact! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 111 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 I did bottom out once or twice lol it does need raising slightly. I'm running H&R Monos very German very firm not a set up I'd recommend but as I won from demon tweets on one of their Facebook competitions I'm happy.

Neal 111 Report post Posted April 16, 2017 Anyone fancy another breakfast meet this coming Sunday (23/04/2017) at the victorian in Bramhall again. No drive organised yet unless everyone would like to go out early and return for something to eat? Breakfast is at 10.45. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would you mind starting a thread via the calendar though and select 'social meets' as I'm worried it will get lost in this thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 111 Report post Posted April 17, 2017 Meet is definitely on for this Sunday at the victorian in Bramhall again. Friends and family all welcome. 1 Lauren reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 111 Report post Posted April 21, 2017 I'm letting the victorian now rough numbers tonight. If you interested can you shout out. So far Claire Lauren Mark? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted April 21, 2017 I'm in. Mark is a maybe. I may have two friends coming that have recently acquired an MR2 which is apparently all my fault after I gave them passenger rides round Oulton back in Feb! Just awaiting confirmation from them.

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted April 22, 2017 Okay Mark is in. He's going to bring the AE86. My friends, Kay and Tom are coming in their MR2 which they only bought on Wednesday! All my fault of course. So four of us from my end! I hope this is okay. Is the parking arrangement the same as before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 458 Report post Posted April 22, 2017 Might pop out for this, what was the parking arrangement last time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 111 Report post Posted April 22, 2017 Hiya Mike would be good to see you tomorrow. We are using my office car park. It's the building right next door to the shell garage. 1 Mike reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 111 Report post Posted April 23, 2017 Good to see everyone this morning. Couple of new faces with Tom and kay in their lovely looking mr2 roaster. The victorian was on form even having enough eggs benadict to go round. 1 Lauren reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted April 23, 2017 Thanks for organising this, Neal. Good to see you guys. We did a diagnostic on Tom's MR2 and sure enough, oxy sensor. Eggs benedict were good too. Could be a regular meet I think, we'll get this dawn drive organised as we head into the summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll sort it with the car park owner each month so they know to expect us. I'll start planning the dawn drive soon I'm busy with the show and shine car show currently looking for people to sponsor the trophies and a few raffle prizes. Ideally I'd like numbers and feedback to be strong enough that I could potentially turn the show into a annual spring rally of sorts. Dream big and all that. 2 lewisw and Lauren reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 111 Report post Posted April 29, 2017 @lewisw the next meet is 21st may. It's the show and shine competition at the greyhounds Inn Warslow near Leek. Would be good to see you there. The roads to the inn are epic. I'm planning a dawn drive to for back end of may setting off just as the sun comes up. So we have all the roads to ourselves. Will keep you posted.

Will keep you posted. looking forward to the show and shine meet, glad they're combined, really enjoyed the breakfast meet. The drive over from Notts/Derby will be a good hoon, might be less shiny afterwards though. Be down for the dawn run too, always like a quiet Sunday drive first thing in the morning.
