Retro Rides Gathering 2015. August 23rd

[Slammed 66]

One of the best shows of the whole calendar!!!!

Due to the event being so popular, it's been up in the air a bit as to whether or not we'd be able to get a club stand booked for this show. Fortunately today I got confirmation that RTOC will have a stand so who fancies it?

Sadly there are no camping tickets available, only day tickets.

As always, we'd love to have your car on the stand representing RTOC. At the moment, there are only 10 stand passes available but more may become available if the organisers can shift things round and create extra space.

Please PM me with your full name and address if you want to display your car and as soon as the passes arrive, I'll get them posted out to you.

There'll be the usual mental demonstration cars running up the hill and the chance for you guys to run your own cars up the hill.

Here's a little taste of what to expect:

I can't stress just how cool this show is

I won't be able to make this event but it looks great, I'd love to take the car up the hill sometime.

[Slammed 66]

That's a shame Alex

Always next year though pal

Admittedly, this will be my first attempt at a hill climb so I'm really looking forward to it. I should probably get some tips from Russell first though

You dont have to run if you dont want it was a great experience seeing and hearing the RS 500s, the mk2 astras, mk2 escorts with cossie lumps, the shelby mustang looking toyota celica mk1, e30 m3's and anything in between, was defo worth the drive down.

Anyone else for this? I had a disaster of a day in the cup car last weekend so it's unlikely that I can bring that now. A local mate has offered to lend me an engine so I might have it ready but no garauntees

[B18ftMOJO5]

Sorry to hear that ross. Hope you get sorted before then

[Shiers999]

New poster! (less than 10 posts)

I will be there in the raider, heard its a good day out so will take a drive on down.

Ive broken my clutch cable this week and in attempting to get a second one have snapped a bit off the pedal side that holds it in. Wrong size renault5 clutch cable was too tight to get on in the first place should have known. Ordered a cable hope i dont need a pedal ratchet set.

[B18ftMOJO5]

Bonus found a old cable in the boot that id taken off as it was beginning to jerk in gear. Managed to drive home. hope fully the new one should be here tommorow.
