Well thought I'd start a thread on the recent get together as organised by the leg-end bruisercapri. Quite a few rr-ers turned up and a load of other people who I didn't have a clue about. Was nice to meet all and to meet new people as well - top day and I do doth my cap to you christian for getting it all organised!

Anyhoo less yapping more pics:

That's me all c&p'ed out. If your car isn't there - I probably just ignored it ;)

I cannot stress how much other cool metal turned up which I know others have taken pics of.

Well worth the mother of all arse-dragging-across-three-counties session.

This is what I don't get, how does a car like that make any show line up (be it just mates getting together or such). It doesn't even appear to be in good nick. :confused:

It's his daily driver while his nearly-mint silver mkII is given a mild-resto and a Zetec under the bonnet. :)

But why not take the decent power-outputting "mint" one to a Rolling Road day?

Why would you take the "not so mint" (but certainly doesn't seem too bad) daily driver? :confused:

Because it's not finished? As I said - he's using it while he converts the silver one.

To meet with friends with a likeminded interest and see what else turns up/runs?

Oh yeah :cool:

I will one day own an old jap car with external oil cooler and randomly placed pipes. But mine will have no grille and headlights turned to a 45 degree angle :cool:
 
I love Boso cars. Have you got any sites links etc to more? I can never find any bar one great gecities type one I lost the bookmark to with years of show pics and some garage with a Honda le-mans type car etc.


Whats the deal with the poo coloured golf with red steelie and standard primer wing?

Not one I've seen before.

I *think* it's a satin black Golf with a rusty bonnet though.

And the red steel (15x6" Golf G60 one by the looks of things...) is an obvious nod to the hot rod fraternity.

LPS Dyno Shootout 2006

This is the biggest dyno shootout at LPS yet. Cars from Retro Rides, Oldskool, Capri Club, and the AHRA. Well done to Christian for a fantastic day and to LPS for having us all.

Should be able to get all the results soon to post up.
