Tess Cosis - Cheepah..........Happy Easter

Post by H8OAG » Wed Apr 04, 2007 3:18 pm

Brought the Exige out of hibernation and took the wife out for lunch today.

Crieff - Lochearnhead at a tourist pace... then a blast up Glen Ogle towards Killin at a quicker rate (three screams/two punches in the arm and six involuntary braking motions from Gail).
Mutterings about "why could you not have kept the Boxster?" when cabin noise levels and temperatures were akin to a Macbrayne ferry engine room

Killin to Ardeonaig on the south Loch Tay road is not to be recommended as there are holes that would serve as tank traps and wreck any Elise driven at a brisk pace. (Shame on you Stirling Council)

However lunch at the Ardeonaig Hotel is to be recommended. Out in the courtyard in blazing sunshine (17 degrees!!!!!) .

Onwards to Kenmore brings an improvement in road surface at the Perth and Kinross boundary then back to open hairpins over the Glen Quaich road to Amulree.

Wiper blade gave up the ghost trying to wipe a rampant cock pheasant from my screen........ so a quick detour to Tescos in Perth for a two pack of 24" wiper blades for the bargain sum of £2.49
The blades come with three separate adaptors and fit both S1 and S2 Loti.

The money I saved went immediately on a very nice bottle of chilled Chablis (Reduced from £6.99 to £3.99)
I hope to use this as foreplay and regain my wife's affection!!

May see some of you young whipper snappers at KH...... when Old Man Gibson and I venture out this friday to break up the TVR procession

Ian... the wife and I will be up on Friday with the Elise... but will be resisting temptation as I need the tyres for a road trip this weekend. So, just some camera action.

If I spot you I will say hello.

I am booked on the 18th May TVR track day... I'm expecting there to be a few VW/Audi's also since it's now being run with Star Performance.

See you there

Last time I went on a Dreadnought Track Day, I was following a well known TVR ( Y*HOO ) in my friends Morgan Plus 8 when the TVR engine let go in a spectacular stylee just before the Hairpin.

TVR spun twice in a plume of smoke with oil going everywhere

Helmet Visor and Morgan aero screens were covered immediately in oil followed by a large metal chunk of an internal combustion engine which smacked me on the my helmet (Oh Er Matron!!!)

Hope tomorrow is less eventful

This comes from a man whose idea of foreplay is ........

Depends on the age.

Jaci fell for the " do you want to come back and see my puppy" line :D

We were right behind you then !! I was a pax in Paul Luti's Rover 800 Vitesse. He was on a mission to break it that night I'm sure !!

If I remember correctly, the pre-cat broke up and the engine sucked some of it in... bang!!

Anyway... were you in the silver Exige with the private Exige plate tonight? There was a similar plate on a gray S1 Exige also. Took a couple of pics.

I saw Graham from MMC was up there for some Pax laps tonight...
