*** MM7 Offical thread ***

Just got back.

Out of respect, we should let Darryn tell the tale if/when he's ready. I think I speak for everyone when I say that we take our motoring passion seriously however we also can take it for granted. Someting like this really does wake you up, especially if you've not seen it before. Sadly I've been there done that got the t-shirt and when all the drama has died off the next day it can hit you like a brick wall.

Thankfully, Darryn is walking and talking but they have taken him to hospital as a precaution and his family are meeting him there, hence why im back home so soon.


The downside to the meet was the rain. I honestly thought we couldn't have such a bad day after yesterday but how wrong was I. We did have a dry spell and we got a few rides in there so thanks to Andy for the ride in the Rover. I know we rip them on here but you guys should try it before you knock it, such a capable car for what it's cost overall. I hope you liked your drive in my CTR Pete and the lack of V6 Powah wasn't too boring for you :p

EDIT:

Oh, and I managed to cut my hands a knees open and my drivers seat is wet through, gonna take ages to de-mist in the morning. The glass shatters into tiny pieces, I'll be pulling it out for days.

It does...I had to get my ex's mum to stand there and pull it out of my hair when I crashed years ago. Had splinters in my ears and everything, I think a shower was all I could do to get rid of it...I didn't need to worry about the car mind as it was scrapped as I bent all of it. :p
 
Just got home, I think we should await Darryn to tell the tale and then post pictures up (Wez has, erm, good ones is the only way to describe them...)

Other than that, despite the weather it was a good day :) Good to meet a few new people :)

Yeah was a very good day, Im sure it will be ok for people to post up pictures taken earlier in the day. :)
 
Yeah I meant just of Darryn's accident lol, although I only took a couple on my iPhone so I won't bother ;)
 
You mean RTI ? :p Accidents are only when nobody is to blame!

Sorry to hear about the RTI though :(
 
Whatever the word for it is ;)

Also, sorry to Wez and Pete - got stuck in traffic after Boroughbridge and couldn't catch up until the Dishforth turn off where you went off :(

2 for now :)

Will post more later.

Tom.
 
Little bit of over exuberance whilst in the company of fellow enthusiasts?

Thought you would have learnt from the time before lasts RR meet when someone ended up in a ditch!

Tut tut! :D

Hope everyone is ok anyway.
 
Sorry to hear about Darryn, thoroughly nice bloke and hope everything turns out ok.

Edit: Nice pics Tom (as per usual), look forward to the rest.
 
I'm home, and that 'incedent' was eye opening to say the least, i hope you're ok darryn, i got some pics of it happening and i think it's only fair you should see them first (if you want to), my msn is in trust.

Overall, apart from the weather, it was a good day out, but i'm in 2 minds about the moors meet in September after today, we'll see.

i'll put pics up later anyway, i'm going for some tea.
 
So another accident to add to the MM Accident History :( Hope Darryn is OK. Besides that good day despite the weather, thanks for the ride in the VXR Rob makes me want to get my 200 back on the road sooner so i feel turbo power again.

I hope you're ok Darryn, and remember a car can be repaired / replaced, a human no so much.

Tupac took me home after that first spin over the moors, nice photo of the cars there.

Hope to go again depending the weather is ok, no point me sitting out in the rain but was a bit poo sat in the car all the time....

Nice to meet (if very briefly) some of you guys.

((I was the dude in the wheelchair)).

PS. Fast Rover there Andy! ;)
