Great weekend, nice to meet you all and no doubt will be meeting again soon!

Thanks to all those that made it happen, and thanks to everyone for making it a cracking 2 days.

Thanks for a great weekend guys. really enjoyed it

good to see u all again and meet some new faces, was nice to look at all the twingos together.

shame about all the chavs but there were some great cars on display.

 

[Mr_Ben]

Yep the filthy one was mine, and no dirty from not washing it for a year and a half Maggi EDIT: as I've always said I've bought the car to drive it not spend hours cleaning it.

I went cos it was ****. Sorry I'm not seeing stuff thru rose tinted glasses.

I've seen better in my works car park, there wasn't 1500 cars (or at least didn't feel like it) and what there was wasn't all that. I walked round 5 times hoping more would turn up and nothing. The drifting was awful, the cars within the covered area were 'meh'. The amount I did really like I could count on one hand. The KAM Racing chaps were cool.

Got some photos, the track action was OK, had an awesome chat with the official Donny circuit 'tog he gave me some good tips. I won't be doing it again prob off to JAE.

The cake looked good in Karl's car thank God it wasn't the face lifted version

So not because you went through the wrong entrance?

 

[Mr_Ben]

The entrance was fine. The speed wasn't high enough to splash dirt unless you were driving like a knob which was impossible because of the queue. I only drove further cos I like my back in one piece and avoided pot holes as Karl witnessed that thru Castle Donington lol

What I found funny was all the anal cleaning people can't clean for love nor money. The wheels were filthy from brake dust NOT mud, the rubber seals were in awful states, interiors were scruffy, the installs looked unfinished.

 

[maggi200]

If you came In the entrance a local would know you wouldn't have queued

 

[Mr_Ben]

I know it was down Melborne Lane, but I had you lot behine me and didn't know if you lot would follow.....

I went that way back as I live that side of the circuit.

 

[Chicken]

Well we all followed you overtaking a lorry just before a junction then having to pull in behind quickly so why wouldn't we have followed you to another entrance?

 

[maggi200]

I didn't follow you, wasn't local, and I found it....

Oh and unless a car is in say top 25 or trailered brake dust isnt bad. But mould...?

I was driving like a knob, I had mud on mine

I stayed behind the lorry, I saw Andrew squeeze in front just at the last second and was like "nah, I wont get past that" so dropped back a bit but managed to find my way by following signs (and the partially unreliable sat nav) and the remaining half of the convoy followed me lol.

 

[maggi200]

Glad I made our own way from the hotel in the end then! No mud, no queues and no nut jobs

Good skills keep it up and maybe you'll be allowed in the durty club. :lol:

 

[JamesGT]

I was all for having a dirty car, untill i saw chicken and charlie detailing his 133, then myself and andrew decided it had to be done lol

I only did I as I felt bad just watching Charlie detailing it even though I said not to.

 

[Dazza1]

I just went over mine with a pressure washer at work didn't have time to clean it

 

[Gareth]

A year and a half without a wash let's all chip in for a bucket and sponge for the lazy arse!

I thought you knew it all that's why we all followed you? I thought we all said the other entrance.

And mr bean shouldn't you have a mini?

 

[JE_GT]

Jesus... I can't go a week and a half without washing mine lol

 

[Karl]

I put mine under a cover and it stays clean for ages

 

[Chicken]

Did anyone else speak to the rolling road guy? I wouldn't trust him with a cheap £100 Saxo let alone my car. Looked like father Christmas and sounded like he had a few screws loose.
