It will be interesting to see how all the developments together fair at a very quick track day.

Can't wait to see the car Neil. I've got plans for a trip to DVA this year, and while I like the LSS I'm watching the Nitron reds with interest...

"I havent got a car, i havent booked the trackday or the hotel, and i dont have time off work"

Yeh right. You've got the uprated toe links at the back and the adjustable front anti roll bar to get yet. Then the harnesses. Then the PRT. Then the oil cooler. Then the shift light. Etc etc etc.

Not long to go now guys. I am really excited about this SE meet. It will be great to catch up with you all again, over a few beers and the curry.

A few reminder pictures of last year.

Nice pics and memories Stew!

I forgot about the local Police...they do make them much prettier down there eh...wonder if they'll be on show again this year

And is it just me, or did McKean have considerably more hair then...?

I am nearly ship-shape for the trip now. Thanks to said McKean and the dependable FBF over the weekend, UJI now has a spanking new NSF hub flange and wheel bearing, and is "slammed" to the 110-120 Steve Butts Bilstein suspension settings. Just a geo check, roof refurb and serious wash n go to be done now, and I'm rrrrready

Ah fat-ed!

Brings back lots of memories! Was awesome despite the breakdown.
Have stuck myself on the reserve list for the trackday just incase i can persuade Tom to loan me his car!

Definitely worth the trip i reckon!

Can you add one more to the curry list Campbell, and thanks for getting me up and running again.

Looking forward to my first run of the year.
Once the route is sorted can you give me e.t.a of where i can join the convoy e.g scotch corner

or somewhere in that area.

Curry update:

Stew.
Campbell
Kenny + Jill
Graeme + Victoria
tut
Scotty
John Reid
Stew + Christine
Robbie + Lin
DEL
Alan Ferguson
Andrew Laing
Neil Gaffney
Neil+Mags
Robin
Ross (fluoxetine)
Brian J
C Wallace
DDtB
Clarkie
Brian L
Andy G
Neil McKean
Drew Imrie
ICE
Merlin
Ian Nixon (nxy)

Checksum = 32

I will ring the restaurant (4550 Miles from Delhi, background here) in next couple of days.

Please note, with a booking this big they may...

a) want a deposit (which I'll cover, on trust, for you all!)
b) ask us to use a couple of tables
c) ask us to stagger the booking a wee bit across two "sitting" times

I'll let you know how I get on.

Please please please if you are going to have to drop out, let me know asap. I can change the booking a wee bit beforehand but once we get to within about a week to go they will ask me to firm it up and then it would be unfair to change it radically.

As for routes, they're DONE

Watch the Meets forum for details.

cheers!

Campbell
