antera309 3 Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Great show today. Didn't run the cabrio up the strip 'cos there wasn't a lot of point with a pretty much standard VR engine, but it was great to meet a few more of you this time around! Link to post Share on other sites

Although i did spend alot of the day running the quarter. I'll have to pop along and show my face to you lot one day.Anyhow, 14.6 was the best time i could get out of the mk2.

thegoth 5 Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 What a scorching day. Thanks to RichieVR's timely offer of suncream I'm just nicely brown. Well the bits that were on show. It has to be way hotter than that for my knees to come out. I do have a rep. to maintain :-[ I'm strill trying to live down Ed38 last year when I left my goth uniform at home.Fantastic turn out. One of the, if not the, largest club there. Well deserving of our prime pitch. Glad you newbies enjoyed yourselves and plan to come back for more. Especially good to have a Vento on show. At this rate it won't be long before we are allocated the entire strip from the stands to the burger vans.Now Blondie has taken to the 1/4, I'm sure it won't be long before we can start making Nurburgring based double entranders in her direction TG Link to post Share on other sites

GVK 1 Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Craggsy, Claire had serious clutch slip, there was smoke pouring out of the bell housing!!Thats what you get for having 4wd and launching at 5000 revs, side stepping the clutch, she said "It's usually alright" LOL! She ran a 14.6 in the morning. Link to post Share on other sites

spindat45 0 Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Just wanted to add my 2 cents worth. Like has been said it was a great day with a great bunch of guys and gyals. Definately good to put faces to aliases and find out some real names too. Looking at my pics and some of the pics on here, we sure had one of if not the best stand at the show. Hats off to all who made me proud to be a VR6OC member *sniffs* and all who worked hard to get it organised and get us that prime spot!I was taking a leisurely cruise home until I was passed and and cut up by a Saab 9 million and something, followed by a porsche. Wasn't interested in anything unecessary until a TT convertible that I had seen and taken a picture of at the show passed me. 3.2 Quattro me thinks. Lets just say he didn't get away from me and I did pass him, and stay in front of him until we came of the M1. He pulled up alongside and his mate in the passeger seat gave me a flyer for online dubs or something like that. I felt quite chuffed at keeping him at bay but I think the fact that his roof was down may have made him back off. On second thoughts, nah!Kevin Link to post Share on other sites
