    Club shop

    Hi all. Don't know if you others are having the same issue but I can't find any items in my basket in the club shop. No matter how many times I add an item. I'm after black club stickers and 2 hoodies.
  3. Afternoon all. Who fancies a meet this Friday evening at the victorian in Bramhall again. Meet 6.30ish slightly earlier slightly later no problem. If attendees want I'll see about sorting secure parking.

    Dawn drive

    Route and time details added: Dawn drive route from Macclesfield to the yonderman for breakfast meeting 5am 16th July at RRG Macclesfield, Hibel Rd, Macclesfield SK10 2AB ttps://goo.gl/maps/ugQkVEGkBoq Hi everyone I'm organising a dawn drive enjoying some of the best roads of Cheshire and Derbyshire before the rest of the world wakes up and then enjoying a club breakfast. The plan is for all taking part to be at the start ready to go as the sun comes up. So from the moment the first trace of pink in the sky shows we are go. At this time of morning there should be time for a stop for club photos if people want to. Number of cars will determine what sort of route and how many groups there are so that we can run a good pace without lights and junctions breaking up the flow The event will take place early June. Meeting point will be Macclesfield. Once the final route is confirmed I will post a link to Google maps with the full drive planned. Surgestion for breakfast location are useful please. Need to open around 9am and serve a proper breakfast. The date will be fixed by this evening.

    Had a great drive out this morning couple of slight issues with my GPS. And Macclesfield mcdonalds but otherwise great roads mostly empty. Dry for most of the route with rain at the end through Castleton. Stopped half way for a mini photo shoot to Will probably organise a similar event for September as there is no Tss.

    If you can convince Claire it's worth the money then I might stand a chance of getting my car sorted.

    Proper trooper Lauren. As it looks like very small numbers I'm looking at adding an extra 50 miles otherwise we will be very early for breakfast.
  11. Neal

    Dawn drive

    Fab @Lauren. You might be able to lead some of it then. That way you can have a play and ease off when you're ready for us to join you again. Also Claires a little embarrassed to ask you for a passenger ride to learn from you. @lewisw. No problem pm me your number and I'll keep you posted on our progress. At the moment it looks like the 4 of us so I might add a few more miles in as we may as well make the most.

    Boot

    @Stutopia. Has one fitted. I read his thread yesterday he's got a couple of nice cargo mods
  13. Neal

    Stubaru BRZ

    Some great ideas and even better reasoning. I modded my mx5 spending a fortune only to break it on a track day. As such my lovely lady has banned me from spending money on mods for the 86. Saying that I've still managed to aquire brand new coilovers new tyres and better break pads For £0 keeps the blagging skills sharp

    Purely because my organisational ocd is starting to kick in with the drive being a week away. How many drivers are planning to turn up (do we need more then 1 group of cars if so we might need a second group leader) and how many stopping for breakfast (so I can let the yonderman know rough numbers) Drive meets at 5am 16th July at rrg Macclesfield. Map details at the bottom of page 1. Attendees 1) Neal and Claire (maybe in both cars) 2) @Lauren+indy? 3) @lewisw 4) 5) +

    Looking like a slight delay and going for the second of July. My work rota is being a pig to organise around and as I'm organising the drive I'd kind of like to be there haha. Start my new job on the 3rd July so will be able to organise 1 or 2 meets a month from then on.

    North West Curry - 2nd June

    Put me on the list mate
  24. Good afternoon all. Hope everyone in the gtrz world is well. I'm organising a show and shine meet with the options if food drink or possibly a bbq. The meet will have a friendly competition with two categories firstly the cleanest most polished and best presented car as voted by the attending club members. Secondly the best car as chosen by the landlord of the hosting establishment. Entry into the competition will be a pound with monies going to the charity Joe halliwell foundation in support of Cry cardiovascular risk in the young. Provided the entry numbers are high enough there will be a trophy for each winner. The establishment of choice will be the greyhound Inn at Warslow near Buxton. I'm not organising a drive on this occasion but the roads to the pub are some of the best I've found. The date is yet to be confirmed in stone but will be either late April early May planning around the TSS round 2. So I can liaise with the host could interested members let me know below. Friends and family are welcome and can enter the landlords choice competition if they want. Thanks for reading and your interest.
