As the clubs growing and more meets are being arranged along with shows. We need to put some ground rules in or at least things for you all to keep in mind when at repersenting Twingo133.net.

Please keep all the following in mind.

When a group of the same cars are together most of the genral public know this is a car club meeting up to socialise and with many or the cars having club stickers on they know what club we are part of.

We dont want people getting the wrong idea about ourselves and the club due to the minority of foolish bahaviour.

Examples:-

Wheel spinning
Handbrake turns
Shouting at one another meaning a full blown arguements
Disrespecting each other
Speeding in convoys (We all like to get somewhere but theres a safe way to do so)
Damaging/Removing parts of people cars without there consent

Feel free to add you veiws on other behaviour not needed when at meets and shows.

Agreed, and as a few of the above points can be classed as criminal offences, for example public order offences, or road traffic offences I think we need to be mindful of the consequences to ourselves and others.
 
is there a maximum number of vehicles that can travel together before it becomes a rally or convoy?

a rally you need tour plates and check points, and a convoy you dont
 
This club needs to let everybody know how friendly you all are surprised these rules are not followed without being said. . .

Yes I believe it's 3!!! Yep you read that right! If it's more then in theory you have to advise the police of your starting point, end point route, number of cars, times etc etc.

In reality it doesn't work like that they don't really care, we had to do it once when running a Honda meet. As long as you obey the usual rules of the road then you're fine.

Never heard of this to be honest fella, an I've been in some large convoys and not just organised by myself and also on the other side of things ;)
 
I have actually heard of something along them lines but didn't know it was law. Can't remember numbers or anything though, think it was someone passing comment in conversation though.

I'm fairly certain it would just be a massive line of cars of the same marque or model would attract attention and should understand if the police would like to ask questions.
 
Damn.. guess me & Ghostz will have to remove these stickers :p

Knowing where you are from will help with letting you know on meets. Currently the most major meet up will be at the French car show so get yourself along to that.
