Fantastic national day

[car.crash]

I've just got back and I have to say I loved the weekend. Smaller field meant everyone was bunched up and it felt more communal and lots of socialising. I didnt go on track but it was nice to see the usuals and some new faces out there.
Also nice to see bob from cgb arrived with some spares and a nice demo car. The rolling road for me was the highlight and nice to see it being used all day by most.
Well done to all who organised it as it was a great weekend and I'm sure the antics will carry on through tonight.

For all those who didn't come due to commitments you really missed out :(
A2M

[Tony Walker]

:agree: completely agree, fantastic day.

[boysie]

:cry:

i'll wait to see some pics then,

and i WILL be there next year, even if i have to walk!

[warpspeed]

Disappointing nite,6 of us sitting round a camp fire at 12.30 am, totally dead.
Reasonable track but not as good as Mallory, if nd is here next year instead of Mallory it'll be a shame...

[Bigfoot]

The tunes are going in the party bus but thinking its way too quiet for a ND. getting best original car :D glad that I got it towed to the track :/ just need to get it back to Essex later today.

[BluntyR5GTT]

glad to see the event went well and the few new additions went down well :) gutted i couldnt be there but i was a bit powerless on that one:cry:

PFC couldnt make it due to having nobody available but if any of you guys would like to send me your pics over and do a brief write up on the days action etc then that would be great and id get it published in the magazine for us.

[car.crash]

Pfc don't deserve the right to publish those cars IMO. Lazy tw@ts for letting people down again.

[BluntyR5GTT]

tbf i think they only had 2 weeks notice unless someone had already invited them? but saying that it has been advertised in the mag for a few months now, i was hoping they could at least get one person along really
they will be along at the rr day in sept :agree:

[BluntyR5GTT]

so what did everyone think of the track and overall the venue?

[The new Bill J]

Pfc don't deserve the right to publish those cars IMO. Lazy tw@ts for letting people down again.

:agree:

I've seen this several times over the years now. It's cheaper for them to get others to attend the events, take pics, and do a write up. They never have any intention of turning up/getting involved. They just want to publish their magazine as cheaply as they can, and make as much profit as they can.

Why pay their staff, when they can get somebody to work for them for free?

[Brizza]

Who was it who was going around taking pics? and where are they?

[Brizza]

I really enjoyed it, sorry couldnt make the full thing but had a family do to attent in the afternoon, was great to see the usual faces etc and to take my own 5 out for a bit of a drive. Pity there wasnt any merchandise for sale though?

[Alex]

Suberb weekend - I really enjoyed myself. Massive well done and thanks you to all involved in making the event happen. Same goes for the people that travelled all the way from France & Holland! :agree:

[Slammed 66]

so what did everyone think of the track and overall the venue?

Although I never drove round the track, from a spectators view it looked quite entertaining. I'll deffinately do a track day there now.

Blyton is only 40 minutes from my front door, so for me it couldn't be better. It's got all the facilities needed. I had a great time! Roll on 2013!!

Ross

[Trevhib]

Sounds like the venue was more appropriate in terms of size this year (i.e. smaller), to bring folk closer together. Good stuff.

I don't think some realise just how few GTT's (the core car of the club, no disrespect to other models) are left on the roads. It's been years since there was a 'big' turn out at any event. RTOC is never again going to fill bigger venues, not for any other reason than a physical lack of the classic motors the club is made up of.

How many cars were there? If it was more than 100 then I'd say that was a good result. How many truly active members are there in RTOC atm who own a Renault Turbo? 350? If you got one in three to the same event, that's good going, although anything over half would be ideal given that it's a ND.

And better to keep this club small, high quality and well organised IMO. It's by far the best place to be for Renault enthusiasts, most certainly for 80's and 90's cars.

Would be great to see some pics of the day and a run down of trophy winners. :agree:

[Tony Walker]

There should be tons of pics, marshals round the track were taking them all day and off track too. Along with the cars all lined up and the parade lap. :)

The track was perfectly suited to the 5 and massively more technical than the Mallory oval with the flat out 4th gear chicane then braking for a 90degree right hander with a bumpy braking zone. Amazing track.

[Brizza]

yeah an asian guy with longish hair was taking quite a few pics of mine

[Gttnutter]

Cracked sump on route friday evening stopped me. pretty gutted tbf.

[Brigsy]

Had a fantastic day thanks all for all the hard work organising it. Was good to catch up with everybody :)

I found the track technical but good fun, was hard to keep my big turbo on song & no lsd = wheelspin out of every corner lol. Still had loads of fun 4 wheel drifting the van though :agree: Free rolling road was a win too!

Who took the track pics? I seen loads of people with cameras.

[BluntyR5GTT]

Mr briggs iv been in contact with the guys at blyton park and they are going to email me them over. Once i have them ill make an album in photobucket and stick a thread up.

[Scoff]

I couldn't stay the whole day so didn't catch up with as many people as I wanted too, but definately seemed like a good atmosphere with everyone loving the track. A shame there wasn't more people there, not much the organisers could do about that but the venue and atmosphere I thought was spot on. Well done to dawn, steve, chris and everyone else :)

[Alex]

Mr briggs iv been in contact with the guys at blyton park and they are going to email me them over. Once i have them ill make an album in photobucket and stick a thread up.

Look forward to them :agree:

[D4WNO]

Really great to see the comments guys, be it good or bad.

I've had to ask people's opinions on the track itself as unfortunately I didn't actually get time to go out on track with anyone, despite lots of offers from you lovely lovely people!

I'll start a proper thread probably tonight or tomorrow so we can discuss the finer points and get some real opinions on various aspects of the weekend, all so we can make 2013 even better :agree:

[leesaunders1981]

Good day, nice friendly people, not including the jap stuff, the 5 gt turbo with scraps no. Plate and the black Peugeot 205 were very quick around the track and the white van was seriously quick on the straights!

[DaveL485]

I had a great time, thanks to the organisers!

[willo3110]

just to thank you for making it a great experiance for me and my son who sends his thanks for letting a total novice use the instructors to enjoy my car or should isay his car now his membership is on way he is busy getting ready for oulton and pod he said been round now wots goin straight like more hors at work i think more power to once again thanks to all concerned:):)

[TNT ANDY]

Absolutely cracking weekend, great to meet with the RTOC gang again, I'm getting to know people better and better every year.

Great to see Mart doing the rounds with his Olympic torch - there should be some amazing pictures of that. Great to see the french and Belgium guys - 10/10 for there efforts, especially there cool heads when the Belgium chaps car bust it's water pump. Again 10/10 to the chap who supplied the replacement.

The weekend was fantastic from the moment we got there until the moment we left, Track was great for totally different reasons than Mallory and the crack with everyone was ace. Millie and Steve have got to be the Ska-king and Queen. The only disappointment was my car being an arse, but hopefully, thanks to Logg, Dave (276bhp) Reed and Big foot, I may have the answers to some problems I'm having currently (no pun intended:laugh:)

Roma was great fun to have in the car as was Oli (the oil slick) Ipswich despite my 360 deg outing - :scared:

A big thanks to the comitee, the venue was great and all your hard work paid off, true it aint no Mallory, but it was a more challenging track if not as impressive. Well done you lot.

For those who did not embrace the fantastic weekend - try again next year you won't be disappointed. For those who did attend and where disappointed, that's a real shame as when I'm at work tomorrow, I'll look back with great memories and I'm glad of that.

[Coops]

loved it

that is all :agree:

[Bigfoot]

Got the car back without the aid of a recovery, got to thank everyone who decided to cheer when I arrived on the back of a truck, what did you expect, me to turn up in a 5 which works fine :crap: and thanks to all those who offered / and helped with my car getting it ready to head back home today which glad to say apart from blowing a hole in the exhaust as well it all went fine. Found some more things which I need to put on the car, plus now having to strip down to change over the inlet manifold which I will do one weekend soon. Will give it some love with some other new items I will get for it or got waiting to be fitted.

Very happy that it won best original car, granted I think I should have washed the car :wasntme:

Big thanks have got to go to Steve (im sure he organised the red arrows fly over) and Dawn to sorting out this great event and putting so many things on offer to the people who attended.

[D4WNO]

Lol no worries. Jane Usher (wife of Richard who owns the track) assured me that it was her who called them up and arranged the Red Arrows flyover just for the RTOC :laugh:

That was pretty special wasn't it?! It was one of the (very geeky) highlights of my day :D

[bod 182]

I had a great day it was my ninth year attending with my son was well worth all the effort from last october to get the cup car roadworthy and set up for track i cannot fault the track had a bit of everything,the facilities were good hot showers (don,t remember them at Mallory)anyway good turnout and impressed with the foriegn legion that attended.Great day hats off to Steve,Dawn and anyone eles that organised this years event:cool:

[R5TURBORON]

I had a really good weekend had more fun than mallory. Weather was a big bonus only downside im now burnt but was worth it. Had my car on the rolling road and bonus was free big thumbs up :agree:. Hopefully next year will have mine on the track. I took some pictures of track action just uploading them. Thanks for a great weekend :cool:

[Dave Reed]

I also really enjoyed my first nat day.. Its great that people like Steve and dawn sort events like this out in amongst there day to day lives, so hats of to u guys and thanks for an awesome and affordable weekend :agree::agree:

Was also great to meet a lot of new peeps too and also to catch up with others that i no...

I thought the free rolling road was a great touch too, especially as, if I'm correct was the most powerful 1.4 to go on? And I drove her a 400 mile round trip without any problems, well chuffed tbh..

All I have left to say is roll on pod day ;):laugh::laugh:

[D4WNO]

So good to see so many cup cars too....:smokin:

ps , can we have the BUBBA KEG available to buy in the rtoc shop...:laugh: {james surridge}

[Fishey]

I also have to say i thoroughly enjoyed this weekend, was also my first nd :D
I thought the organisation was superb, and the venue was excellent, made even better by the weather and the free rolling road and the driving instructors!

[Pigsnake]

Brilliant weekend:agree: couldn't fault it. Good to catch up with people and also meet some new. Cup car went really well which i was well chuffed with.Thanks to everyone who organised it.:)

[JimGTT]

Had a fantastic weekend, thought the organisation was the best yet!(my 6th), so well done guys.:agree:
Was nice to see a decent amount of 5's on and off the track.
The track, i thought was much more challenging than mallory which made it much better.
The quickest thing on the day was Alastairs tent when it took off :crap::laugh: with all his stuff in. Glad he didnt loose anything:agree:.
Glad my 5 ran like a dream, there, back, round the track and on the rollers (158.5bhp@1 bar)not too bad, yet again she done me proud, it was her 4th nd in 5 years without a prob and has been tracked everytime:D:D.
Nice to see the french guys turn up (in some tasty 5's) Pascals raider, my fav! Closey followed by the red one.
Thanks to Kris M for a few laps in the old cup car, its going really well.
Overall a great National day.... festival. Only down side to me was, its bloody miles away from torquay:laugh::laugh:
Looking forward to seeing some pics:smokin:

[D4WNO]

Lol @ Alastairs tent, but technically he did lose something...his loaf of bread :laugh:

I went to speak to him this morning and he didn't realise until he got everything out to make his toast, bless him!

I was walking up towards the gate area when I looked up and had to rub my eyes as I thought I was seeing things. Yes, that was a big brown tent 20 feet in the air with bags of crisps flying out of it :laugh:

[D4WNO]

It's also really great to see the same few things being mentioned as things that people really enjoyed, the challenging track, the closer-knit camping area and the free rolling road and track instruction.

You lot know more about the track than me as I didn't have time to go out as a passenger so I'll have to trust your opinions :laugh:

[Penfold aka The Dealer]

Brilliant weekend:agree: couldn't fault it. Good to catch up with people and also meet some new. Cup car went really well which i was well chuffed with.Thanks to everyone who organised it.:)

Tis a good cup car you have (take it you sorted the brakes put as they were shocking)

[Pigsnake]

Hi bud,jesus had put new pads and discs on before i brought it which helped:). I put new master cylinder on and it stops really well now.:agree:

[rat1]

:agree::agree::agree:thoroughly enjoyed the weekend a big thanks to all concerned,
the track was grate easy to get round but very challenging to get it just right.the close camping was good apart from having Dale behind my tent and his gentle whispering till 2:30 in the morning lol.and seeing alasrairs tent flying over my head was something else. its a shame more didn't make it but you can't have everything.

[Penfold aka The Dealer]

Hi bud,jesus had put new pads and discs on before i brought it which helped:). I put new master cylinder on and it stops really well now.:agree:

Good man, it's a cracking car :) gearbox feels so tight

[Tony Walker]

I really enjoyed the track there, only downside was i didnt want to come back in, 120 miles on track and a full tank of fuel gone. Even at 10psi had such a great time. if i had time i'd happily drive back there next weekend.

[Adam L]

Yea that's the figure, just wish I had the laptop with me could've turned her up to full boost ;):laugh:

That's great I see them taking photos etc but forgot to ask why :ashamed: lol

And sort Adam out!!! His car is sexy... Haha

Dave, mate, after going out in Mart's Evo, I realised my car could never go round a corner at those speeds without breaking traction. I haven't done a track day properly in quite a while and want something just to smash round the corners. I was supposed to be picking an Evo up today but insurance issues, not with myself, stopped that.

The S15 is a weapon though and looks the dogs:D.

Good to meet you by the way, pal. Loved your comment as you walked off,''tell Adam to stop being gay'' :laugh:

The weekend was very well done, organisation wise, it's the best I've attended in nearly 10 years. Dawn runs my life, effectively, and she does a bloody good job at it too:D, so I'm hardly surprised her and Steve knocked out such a cracking event. Well done to the both of you.

I told you that you should of bought Marts Evo :wasntme:

[Adam L]

He spent all of last week punting it to me via text and when he takes me out for a ride says he doesn't want to sell it anymore:laugh:

Seriously rapid cars on track, we lapped every car on the final session I think.

I thought i was doing really well keeping up with him till i realised it he was pulling off lol.

[leesaunders1981]

The red evo??? That was very fast!

[Tony Walker]

Red one was quick, marts was the blue one i think.

[andybond]

Red one was quick, marts was the blue one i think.

Marts was the blue 6. Still the best evo shape.

[leesaunders1981]

Oh yeah I remember seeing it now looked nice, can't remember it going past like the red and silver one though!! :)

[Tony Walker]

I didnt see him out alot in it, the red evo i think was out more than me.

[leesaunders1981]

I think I remember your red 5 on the track, went well, pulled well if it's the one I remember

[Tony Walker]

I was out alot, only 10psi tho but it still went quite well at that :D

[Kris M]

what can i say. Superb weekend with great company and great cars...The cup car was faultless so cant complain really :):agree:

[Tony Walker]

Just heading out

[leesaunders1981]

That's the one I remember following it now, pulled well

[Mart]

Oh yeah I remember seeing it now looked nice, can't remember it going past like the red and silver one though!! :)

That's ok, I can't remember the red & silver one passing me at any point either :D ;)

Quickest car from what I saw on track was Alastair's. Beast of car, and a great guy too :agree:

[leesaunders1981]

The blue 5?? That looked like it was on rails around the corners!! Awesome. Kept waving people past though wanted to have a little play :)

[Mart]

That's the one. Some nice trick bits on the car too - Al's got a car (and mod's) to be proud of :cool:

[leesaunders1981]

Very nice car, quick around the track

[Tony Walker]

That's the one I remember following it now, pulled well

Thank you :D

[Tony Walker]

Wish i'd seen alastairs everyones commented on how well it handled.

[warpspeed]

Suberb weekend - I really enjoyed myself. Massive well done and thanks you to all involved in making the event happen. Same goes for the people that travelled all the way from France & Holland! :agree:



And Scotland???? It's a fair old drive for us too,especially when my master struggles to crack 60mph! :coffee:

[leesaunders1981]

Was hard trying to get out and have a play with the quick stuff, they always came in just as you get out! That's if could even catch up!

[Tony Walker]

yeah, i kept slowing down to let people catch up then tried to follow them as best i could :D

[leesaunders1981]

Ha, same and then they would pull in :cry::wasntme:

[Tony Walker]

lol yeah, was great following jaffa in his m3 tho :D some interesting lines he took on the high speed chicane before the last corner :D
Also jesus's coupe turned in pretty well :D

[Mart]

He spent all of last week punting it to me via text and when he takes me out for a ride says he doesn't want to sell

I must've missed those serious offers you made...?

[Logg]

What a cracking event as normal. Well done Steve, Dawn and all that made this event run so well and smoothly. :agree: roll on next year. :D

Well done to all the French and Dutch that came. Wow your cars are so clean, straight and very well engineered. :cool:

Tidy tent for night life till 5am :) :cooter:

Well done on the free rolling road. :agree:

Also a big thanks everyone that turned up and brought such a great atmosphier to this event. :agree:

[Duncan Grier]

Had a REALLY great weekend!

Track was a lot better than Mallory imo and also great venue. Think it is a step forward in terms of ND format and the issues / concerns raised around show and shine stuff is easy to resolve tbh.

I think its a great bench mark to further tweak and improve for next year. For a small club it really was a great event, well done to all involved

Caught up with most of the gang and spoke to a few new members, sun, cold beers, BBQ and track driving.......life is good :cool:

DG

[Romil Davda]

I had a fantastic weekend, starting with the convoy on Friday and a great day Saturday :)

ND was superb, great turn out, so many cars and everyone was so helpful and friendly.

Huge thanks to the organisers, great job all :agree:

[Kingscott]

Great day too, even tho I only managed 9 laps due to a caliper seal blowing out :cry:.

However I had chance to take my friends Celica GT4 out for a few laps then went home and fetched my Subaru Legacy GT-B, I think I win "biggest barge" on track for that one :eek:!!! Problem is I now need 4 tyres and front break pads!!!

Massive thanks from me :):):):):)

[Alastair]

That's ok, I can't remember the red & silver one passing me at any point either :D ;)

Quickest car from what I saw on track was Alastair's. Beast of car, and a great guy too :agree:


Thanks Mart, shame I didn’t get a lot of track time – I’ve been meaning to sort that drive shaft out for a while now, shame it went at the weekend.

I hope the people who got a few laps in the passenger seat in between the bodging to get back out enjoyed themselves! Brigsy’s better half was a scream… I was hanging the tail out round the little chicane for a laugh, and then once the tyres were warm we got on it, at that point (4 wheel drifting changing into 5th round the long wiggles after bouncing the limiter in 4th) she said, “I am smiling now – you can go faster if you like!” Mate – she is a mentalist !!! Sorry to those that I couldn’t take out due to defects…!

------------------

1. So most importantly: a massive thank you to Steve, Dawno and the team for a great weekend, a credit to the club – BRAVO ZULU. :yeah:

2. I think the venue was excellent and good VFM. The track was a lot more technical than the bland oval at Mallory, but friendly enough for beginners and plenty of passing places. Personally I think the track was perfect for our FWD cars. Perhaps if they painted a few curbs red and white it would make people feel more of a sense of occasion… Just one thing – can we have something in the South West, 11 hours to get there was an EPIC!

3. The atmosphere was great, one of the best RTOC events I have been to in years. Nice to put faces to names, meet lots of new people and to see some truly stunning cars and some big BHP turn up too! :agree:

4. R/R for free is another great addition. (Shame they wouldn’t run mine though, I wasn’t changing the set up for a quick power run)…

5. The competition area: I like the idea of all being able to vote, perhaps a flag/sign or ‘red tape’ area to mark out the cars being judged and set them apart would be good. I don’t think sour grapes afterwards is at all conducive to a low level club event judged by ‘volunteers’ who were doing their best in a limited time window. :scratch:

6. A massive thank you to the flying tent recovery party… just gutted I lost my loaf ! Not sure how it happened it was very well secured. I owe you all a beer!:wasntme:

7. PS, loving Dale’s party bus you guys were cracking me up!:laugh:

[Megabytes]

Owwwwahhhhh !!

I just wake up after a AWESOME week end !!!!!
I came back home yesterday at 12h PM
Done more than 2000 kms, few little problems on the car but nothing can't be fixed on the road, meet a lot af fantastic pepole, see stunning cars, a perfect organisation !!!!

Thanks to every one !!

I speek for all the Frechies : This meeting was the BEST ONE ever done !!!!!

I have a lot of pics, just need to sort it.

One more time : THANK YOUUUUUUUU !!!! :agree::agree::agree:

[Big Steve - Raider]

:niceone:

You & the rest of the Frenchies (and special mention to the Dutch Jesus #2) are most welcome!!

Steve ;)

[Mart]

Bruno, great to catch up with you guys again, and thanks to you, Romain, and Pascal for the English/French translation :D Not forgetting Jasper there as well.

Hope you can sort out a trackday at Abbeville, but if not, we'll definitely be at the Florenville event next June anyway :agree:

:cool:

[Nottswoody]

Hiw did the Jesus lookalike get on with his waterpump? Did he get home ok??

[Red October]

Hiw did the Jesus lookalike get on with his waterpump? Did he get home ok??

yeah it was fixed in 3-4 hours, we leant him a few tools, he then returned the favour and helped with a couple of things on repairing the fire damage and head replacement :)

[Kris M]

I hope he got back ok. I took the waterpump off my cup car and gave it to him to get back, hope it went ok :)

[Kingscott]

I swear at one point I looked around and just about every car in the pits was jacked up or had someone head scratching whilst looking over the engine bay!!! :confused::eek::scratch:


I had to chuckle .........Stereotype or what!!:laugh::laugh::laugh:

[Dave Reed]

I hope he got back ok. I took the waterpump off my cup car and gave it to him to get back, hope it went ok :)


Not sure if he made it or not.. He came over to me on the Sunday as we was leaving, he was having alternator charging problems.. A quick look under the bonnet revealed the connector of death was corroded, so I just pulled it apart and back together a few times and it done the trick..

Was well cool of you Kris M to sort out the water pump :agree:

[Megabytes]

Yes, him and i have changed his pump, no problems apears after, no temperature problems, the fan starts well, no oil in water, no pressure problem in the cooling tank...
Normaly no head gasket ! :agree:

[jesus in the seat of a 5]

Hiw did the Jesus lookalike get on with his waterpump? Did he get home ok??

:laugh:, glad to hear he did , he also had a good few laps out with his twin...jesus..:laugh::D, he loved the cup car and im sure it inspired him to push his car..:D:laugh::wasntme:, this club is ace and the guys from france etc were great!!!!!:agree:

well done krissey m too...:D

[Ricardo]

Absolutely awesome weekend away people :cool:

A big round of applause to Big Steve, Dawn and the team for putting on such a great event.

As always its great to catch up with the usual mob of friends, a pleasure to meet up with Dave Reed. All i can say is WOW, what a car :eek: love the comments when it was on the rolling road :D top bloke

A pleasure to be in the same company as the french contingent, apologies for the miss timings etc :D :ashamed:

Also a big thank you to DJ Coma :wasntme:

[royz]

great weekend massive thanks to all who sorted this out

Pfc don't deserve the right to publish those cars IMO. Lazy tw@ts for letting people down again.

:agree:

I've just got back and I have to say I loved the weekend. Smaller field meant everyone was bunched up and it felt more communal and lots of socialising. I didnt go on track but it was nice to see the usuals and some new faces out there.
Also nice to see bob from cgb arrived with some spares and a nice demo car. The rolling road for me was the highlight and nice to see it being used all day by most.
Well done to all who organised it as it was a great weekend and I'm sure the antics will carry on through tonight.

For all those who didn't come due to commitments you really missed out :(
A2M

Have we officially thanked Bob??

[Jimmy_GTT]

I'd also like to say big thanks for this great event.
I've driven more than 2.000kms to get there but it worth it.
I've never ever seen that much GTT in one place.
That track looked good, but I haven't driven on it.

It was great to meet some of you personally.
We could talk some words with the french guys also. Thanks for the help in the translation. I have to improve my french.
I'd like to take part in their meeting next year.

And big THX to Red October who has taken my turbo tu BluntyR5GTT.

Jimmy, thanks for making the journey over, and hope you & Szabolcs will attend future ND's :agree:

Great to see Whitey again! ;) :)
