Haha cant believe how much love it is getting, especially with the chav infills on the raiser blocks.
those of us giving it love are probably those that grew up on Sega Rally

It looks like a beast tbh. Looks allot nicer than some of the others i have seen.

Yeah exactly what I was going to say, usually see them about and never give them a second glance. Yours mate has something special about its looks, i cant put a finger on what exactly but I think it looks great!
Love the alloys!

Always pick the Celica in Sega Rally.
great day out. Good roads, good cars, good company and good weather 
My car of the day award has to go to Tims EK9, unbelievably good for a souped up hatch. Can't wait to get my hands on an EG6 of my very own. The others cars I rode in were impressive machines also though so don't feel too bad
The roads were just too bumpy for my car though, with soft suspension it really did feel unsafe when pushing on so I never went out on the test drive road.
Gave it some on the way home though down the lanes, I think I might win the prize for biggest insect massacre

No to late now I am sad
Its a shame I was tied up with rides out would have liked a ride in the civic, by all accounts its an impressive machine.
Well I think it's safe to say I was the last home!
I would have been home at half 10 - 11 as I was making good progress on the motorway but I stopped off to see my best friend in Luton for an hour or so.
But...what a day! and what a weekend!
Started off with me leaving at 10:15 Saturday to fun and antics with Tom, MrSix, AGW, and a few others out in t'manchester (hazy memory from that).
Got in and went to bed at roughly 4:30 - 5 hours sleep later, we are getting ready to try and kill ourselves by attempting to hurl heavy pieces of metal off a cliff
Anyway, all met up, good turnout of people, some old faces, some new, but overall all is well. I successfully set off my car alarm by opening the bonnet, only to be told extremely complex directions from a half asleep Cymatty and then leave.
Head to the first pub without problems, and kudos to Cy for the pub dude, was top stuff! and that brunette barmaid - nice rack
To the 2nd pub! then it's passenger rides all round, thanks to - Tim, Cy, Andy, Tom, (think that's it) for the rides guys - all awesome machines - Specially that Civic, the amount of grip that has is just phenomenal - no other way to describe it!
1 distressed phone call later - me and a few others have to go as we are due elsewhere! (it's hard being so perfect to be in demand ALL the time, but what can you do?) so we said our goodbyes and left!
Was a really cracking weekend guys, 10x better than the last MM. Lots of laughs at Andy's expense (I do feel sorry for you SOMEtimes) and the fact that my car had hayfever and kept sneezing everywhere!
Looking forward to the next one, as said I'll try and get in contact with Conanius this week and see about arranging an RR if he doesn't have time to do it

I'll say my thanks now to people
Si the organiser much appreciated job well done, thanks for the ride in the GT4 phenomonal grip and such a kick in the back.
Andy fastest rover i have ever been in. wobbly speedo and rising temperatures included.
Tim well i thought the clio 172 cup could handle and grip that thing just does not let go, needs more torque tho
Dup - "Granny shifting, not double-clutching like you should"
To everyone else nice to meet you all bring on MM7 hope an improve 200sx with sorted out handling at 300+ bhp

I know. At least I didn't blow the welds on the intake
When I took Tom out it was fine with it on those two corners. Weird.
I think the geo is out a bit after the hammering I've given it over past 12 months. It feels a bit skittish on the bumpier roads so I think I might look into some Tein springs (-20/25 mil) and a fast-road setup before next time.
No worriesSorry Didn't realise that happened.
I was partially deaf after slugging down various motorways on my way there and misheard the directions both times - knowing the name of the first pub helped but second time I had no idea where you were heading. Didn't help that we got blocked off by a bus when leaving the first pub and lost sight of you straight away. Still I enjoyed the ride out and the meal.Couple of suggestions for next time, first make sure everyone knows the route beforehand, either on here or by showing us a map when we're there
, and second everyone should put dipped lights on, it's far easier to spot a convoy of cars that way and keep an eye on who to follow if we get separated.I'm going to use Unit 8 in Darwen. They wanted about £100 last time I asked which aint too bad. I need camber arms though so adds another £100
. They post a lot on the CTR forums and they seem quite popular so will see how they do. Gonna try them with servicing too.
