OcUK Motors - Years Back

Simon demonstrating gap theory for me in his S2000 springs to mind too.

Who did I take out in L1J's Golf turbo??

EDIT

Phate, you are not to mention the driving technique I showed you when we took out Kate's 200SX either :o

I recall we took the 200SX out to get fuel, found a shut down petrol station, then found an open one...and went on a proper drive with compressor stall and...a totally legit 3 point turn in the road, utilising reverse gear of course. ;)

E: "It's got quattro mate" - Best story I've heard at a RR I think. :D
 
mrk's Austin-Metro

Dangerouses ST220 trying to catch a clapped out old Rover stuck to the back of a DC5

It may have been a Rover. But it certainly wasn't clapped out.

I miss all the meets I used to go on. Annual combe action day where everyone would meet from rover tech and all get on. Me and my mate starting rover200.com too. I still look back on my rover turbo fondly. :(
 
This was a fun meet:

One of the most surprising threads as far as I am concerned was the RTC that Mattius was involved in when he crashed his Spitfire in Scotland. I was on duty that night and attended the incident + took part in his extrication from the crashed vehicle.

Imagine my surprise when I read about it in Motors a few days later. Small world indeed. :)

Me thinks your link is wrong :p

I remember seeing that thread and being hugely shocked by it (in fact my post is just after yours in the thread), partly as my brother has a 1500 and it is all too scary to see how badly they can be damaged.

The ensuing threads by Mattius though... :cool:
 
I just dug these up.
June 2005 meet in the south west.

In the first pic the only people I recognise are me (far left), Fakesnake (4th from left)
I'm pretty sure that's Fox's Mondy behind us.

I can name a few more I think, not many though :)
