Scottish meet??

Ive been trying to find out how many members we have in Scotland , and wether it would be worth while to have a small scottish get together somewhere central.


When searching members from location Scotland it only brings up 5 members ???
Im sure there is more scots here than that?? is there a easier way to filter out members from scotland.

Anyone that would be interested in a Scottish meet please post up any suggestions or locations . I have a few ideas myself but would like to here other views .

I would like to get a chance to meet all the scottish members in the club and try to get something regular happining up here , unless peeps are willing to travel south of the border theres not really alot happens up here , time for a change me thinks .

yeah im in. we only realy have knockhill and crail for track days ect.

1 of the places i think would be a good meeting point for us is the

http://motor-museum.bo-ness.org.uk/visit/doubleObar.htm

i know its in my home town ,but ive heard very good reports about this place and i know its used alot by the ford guys and some other car clubs for meetings.


failing that weve got Knockhill , crail or maybe a rr day somewhere , infact ill meet up at maccy d's if it gets us lot together for a bit crack and get to know peeps .

yeah sounds good. or maby a gokart track. there is a good one in edinbugh. i could sort out some prizes and stuff?
http://www.raceland.co.uk/

yeah gokarting is always a winner :)

iv been there a couple of times now. its a good day out. we could go out in edinburgh afrerwards to.:)

Yeah Im cool to meet up but McDonalds carpark is the cheaper option! If I remember correctly that gocart place is expensive. Im (as I imagine lots are) am very broke at the moment, in fact the 5 is SORN for now.

Anyway, Id come watch but def down for meeting everyone.

aye mate its quite expensive but it was just an idea. maby knockhill would be the better option. as they have an exlnt kart track that is quite cheap and the have a pub on site.:beer:

Yeah Raceland is def a good suggestion, went a couple of years ago and its great. Fast wee carts but as I said I personaly am skint but I would def come along and watch so if people wanna go Im cool with that. But even if we all just park up somewhere, chat then grab a big table at an indian restaraunt or something then that would still be coolio.

Just keen now to see how many of us there are up here.

I'm up for a meet. Just depends on the dates. Mud have you been to the motor museum? What about a rolling road day at ava? I need to find out if i've got enough power for the hills this year.:D

Hey Rusty m8 hows you ?a RR day at ava wouldnt be a prob ,i can organise this np

whens the first hillclimb at Doon ? a meet there would be good also , is this the motor museum your on about? or are you talking about the 1 in bo'ness i posted the link to ? ive not been to any of them .

i just think its about time we got all the scottish members out there shells and try and get some regular meets on the go , cause at the moment all ive got to look forward to is nat day , and all the other meets are down south , which i dont mind doing 1 or 2 a year if i get a chance , but it would be nice to have something to do in Scotland .

at the end of the day ill happily organise a meeting and try and get something of the ground ,all we need is the support of the scottish members .

ill let this thread run for a cpl days and see what responses we get then maybe make a list of possible locations and have a vote ?

Im crap with Geography, could I fly to attend this meet?

Also will i get kicked in for being English?

LoL :wasntme: if you suddenly wake up with wings , or drink plenty of redbull im sure getting there wouldnt be a hassle :laugh:

the thing is i doubt very much we could muster more than 10 peeps rgdls of the venue for the meet :(

i started this thread to try and find out what scottish members were active and maybe offer something for us to do :)
Id just like to add that when or if we do manage to sort something it will be open to all members to attend :agree:

if your not northern how can i be southern;)

i'm considerably more northern than you both :cooter:


:nohijack:


I would come and join you when the weather improves , as long as i dont get kicked in too ..

I'm good thanks, yourself? The first hillclimb at Doune is the 18th &19th of April here's a link http://www.dounehillclimb.co.uk/ i should be there. I can also try to arrange for us to take the cars up the hill! At a safe speed :laugh:
yeah i meant the museum in Bo'ness, the museum at Doune has closed down.
I'm gonna try and get to national day this year, cos to date i ain't been to a club event. But anyway's i agree a regular scottish meet is long overdue. You've got my support:smokin:

bump:wasntme:

Not much is happening on this so i'm making a suggestion. Crail Sunday 8th March, it's a normal 1/4mile and drift day so plenty of runs for your money, providing your 5 lasts the day :scared:. I reckon this would be ideal for a first meet, some fun and some chat. Let's see some interest peeps :)

http://www.crailraceway.co.uk/index.asp

yeah this thread went down like a lead ballon :crap:

Crail does sound ok for the 8th of march , id be up for that .

be nice to see a few others make the effort imo

Ive been considering a rr day soon aswell and have heard alot of good reports about hypertech in bonnybridge just outside falkirk ,a guy duncan that runs it , seems a very genuien guy . rr is a dyno dynamics and is less than a year old , i could go to AVA aswell but i was trying to keep it at a neutral location . for obvious reasons but i wont rule AVA out .

theres not much point in organising a rr day for 3 - 5 cars turning up , this thread has been running over 1 week now and only 4-5 members have shown an interest :crap:

Mud, if ya want you could wait a few months and join up with a north east meet/rolling road day?? We might even entice a southern softie to come along who lives oopp here now!:D Might help with the numbers etc.

Im still interested. Just tell me the time and place. Id do Crail.

If i could get enough cars to come to say AVA or maybe HyperTech i recon i could get a mag shoot done(been getting txt from the photographer about a proposed mag feature in redline,im sure a rr day would be of interest to him ) would you Northeast guys be interested in making up the numbers in scotland ???

rgdless ill be considering attending as much meets and events as i can this year the further north the better :)

What ever you arrange i will be their and possibly Emma depending on her coaching timetable.

Chris:)

Im sure we would be just depends on when, as im still on finishing the 225 conversion and others have cars in bits at the moment.

Well that's 4 possibly 5 so far, how many cars would you need to run a mag featured rr day?

what about we start off with the meet at crail on the 9th March ?

in the mean time ill get on the blower and check out possible dates with relevant rr places and photographer, would you guys prefer AVA or Hypertech for a rr location ? what month April / May ? or ?

hello chaps

im defo up for a mag featured rr day
id prefer ava as its closer
:)

but whatevers whatever...as long as i can arrange a day off in advance no problemmmmmmm
not to keen on crail but mayb i will change my mind

Mud Crail is the 8th March ;). As for the rr i prefer AVA, have read some disappointing reviews of Hypertech. Dastek at Dalgety Bay is another rr, April is good May not good at all.

just thought i would say hi guys,im def up for meets up scotland and once the 5 is up on the road and im not away working off-shore,ill have a bit of the action please!!
just thought i would say as noticed hardly any peeps in this thread were replying from scotland!!!!

majority of em are southerners !!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cry:

Where is AVA in Scotland and roughly how far from newcastle?

AVA is at the back of Glasgow Airport, Renfrewshire. 162 miles, 3hrs 10mins :scratch: although i'm sure you could cut that down to around 2hrs:p. Depends where in Newcastle your coming from. I've posted that link not sure if it's gonna work.


http://www.theaa.com/route-planner/index.jsp

No new interest since my last post, the Crail meet on the 8th March is just under two weeks away! I'm battling against the clock to get my car ready for the start of the racing season let alone Crail. But i'll still be there. If your up for it put your name down. :agree:

Rusty

bump:scratch:

looks like its me and you Rusty :p

give me a bell in the next week and ill make some arrangements with you , went to tax my 5 and found out the mot was out :( getting this done the morra and hopefully getting this stiffy bracket finished next sat , then its back to ava to sort the boost prob , im confident ill be able to go to crail on the 8th :)

be nice if a few more peeps could make it up to crail, i was going to add it to the events page , but due to the lack of response here its hardly worth it :crap:

I'd be up for it mud, but I'm outside the Uk those dates. Maybe later in the year though:agree:

Im going to order the bits i need this wknd. if all goes well im going to fire up too.:D

New poster! (less than 10 posts)

Might take a trip over to crail on the 8th if all is well with the car be nice to see what a 5 is like going up the 1/4 mile cant say that i can ever remember seeing one at crail before.
Nice car you have there Mudslinger bet that thing is like a rocket of the line :agree:

Daaaaaaamn I REALLY want to go but my five is SORNed at the minute and I wont be getting money in time for the 8th.

I might head up in the POS fiesta though just to meet some new faces.

not sure about off the line , but it will certainly shift once i get some traction , im still using the yoko tyres i bought over 7 years ago :wasntme: just dont have the cash the now to get new tyres or anything else for that matter :crap:

Be nice just to get a few timed practice runs to give me an idea what its going to be like , not sure how the gearbox/diff /driveshafts will handle it :scared:

Be nice to meet up again billy , im sure we if we all pulled together we could atleast have 1 decent meet a year in scotland :)

Definately mate. I'm back flying for a living again, and the company I'm with is bringing new types on line, so I'm out the country a lot overseeing/getting type rated on all that kit.

Give me a few months though untill it dies down, and we'll get a Scottish meet sorted.

It'd be awesome to see all the cars together and then have a beer at night :agree:

i would like to meet up but i have the same prob as mike , the 5 is sorn at the moment (credit crunch ) lol ,i can still head up tae see some faces and ad also like tae see your 5 on the 1/4 mud ,i was impreast at the rr day lol :eek:

If a Rolling Road day is organized , I'll definitely be there in the 5 .Crail is a winner as well just not on the 8th i have other commitments :coffee: Billy G have you got that 5 of yours sorted yet :innocent: yrrab nostaw you owe me a rematch on the strip, biatchhhhhhhhh :laugh:

Sitting in a warm garage mate, aint had time to play with it for weeks. Been abroad playing with some bigger kit!

Mike i don't think any 5's went up by the sounds of it.

I like Crail when the weather is good, but as the weather was :crap: today it's not much fun. An RR day should be ok cos we'll be indoors.

would this event be of interest to any of you guys ?

http://www.northeastmotorshow.com/homepage.html

maybe we could get a club stand if there was enough interest ?

im on the case for a rr day , ive been thinking about hypertech in falkirk maybe end of april / may , would need a min of 10 cars though .

At the moment i'm working on that date :rolleyes:, but was thinking about going to the pod on the 29th May, so i might tie them in together. I've not been to the pod before nor have i been to a rtoc meet south of the border. Unlimited blasts up the strip for 50 notes is good value for money aswell :D, so long as the old warhorse can take it.:eek:

just noticed this thread and think its a great idea:)
i work most weekends but would try my best to attend any events
theres nowhere near enough meets up north :cry:
its about time we sorted that out
1st thursday of the month central location meet up cruise how about that:agree:

Me and emma would be up for a rr day:)

Crail was not to bad yesterday , i ended up coming 3rd in my class got knocked out by a VXR after i made a mess of the start , times were nothing to write home about , i only managed 1, 13s pass :crap: i was gutted not investing in a new set of tyres ,way to much wheel spin which i did expect but just not as bad , not helped by the surface at crail which is utter bollox :crap: , at pod i got traction in 3rd at crail i was still smoking the tyres ...

Still it was a good laugh , Cheers to rusty for his help through out the day next time ill defo have decent tyres :smokin:

cant wait to get a laugh at the incar footage !!

I thought more peeps might have made this event , that was the first event at crail this year its not been pissin down.

It was a good day Mud, i think two renault 5 gtt's was enough for crail, we don't want to spoil them. Funny of the day, was the evo 5 driver who thought you were going to embarass him, and almost did :D. Here's a link to the vids

been on the search for some tyres , get paid this week :) been looking at the bf goodridge g-force drag radials (just trying to find some place to order them through ), then hopefully ill get back up to crail and see if i can get a better time. After watching that video i got a bit of work to do on technique :ashamed: although with a bit practice and better rubber i should get a 12 easy , either that or ill destroy the gearbox :)

was good to meet you at the end of the day mudslinger. some nive vids going down the 1/4

would coem up to crail more than likely in my van as my 9's nowhere near ready if theres another meet anytime soon.

I'll be at Knockhill on Sunday with the 5, if it's dry that is. It's the last round of the SMRC so should be eventful. Hope to see some of you there.
