The day I collected the car... And the latest (still unfinished) pic...

Last night

When I purchased from toybox in March this year And now

Nice evening.

Speaking to Bob at the support van. Says that he'll meet us at Onich Hotel .. .. hopefully! So, it's Kilmahog for 10:00 sharp and it was suggested that we don't stop at the Green Welly and make straight for Onich. Bob has asked me to collect a fiver per car whilst we're there to fuel the van at Fort William.

A bit late, but happy birthday Mikey.

I'll be there with the wife tonight and my parents will be joining us in there and hopefully Lee in his

Just come and find me or John Williams who will do the admin and I will do the Driver/Safety Briefing for you and others if we have them! Thanks G

Yep - 98 not 89 - you passed the test.....!

Donington's 98db drive by is really weird. I've known a few people having trouble with it.. but it's really hard to say who will trigger it and who wont. Last one I did, there were a couple of race BMWs absolutely screaming.. they sounded fantastic, and loud! but apparently under the noise limit. A bike engine Legend had no trouble also..???

No noise issues at all - I have the Westfield exhaust - 2" I think, revving up to 7k No one had an issue, but they did labour the point in the briefing that anyone breaking the limit would need to make 'mechanical changes' to be allowed back on which they basically said, you won't be let back on! Think it was an 89Db limit FYI I will be looking at more dates to try some other places and would be good to be on a track with some similar cars and not feeling like a micro machine :-)

Well done Syman84. A great result and love the tankard!

.. dam those delighted shepherds!

Hope you all have a good weekend and the weathers kind. Drive safely and drink wisely.......Ok drive safe at least.

Great write up

A good win for Toyota, shows what you can achieve with a 2.4 litre hybrid.

Hello guys, Sue and myself would just like to say thanks to you all for a great day. Good company and beautiful views we couldn't ask more. Hope to join you all soon. P. S and the food was pretty good too

I must pride myself today on finding NO COW POO, let's hope it lasts hey! We met at Matlock where the blinking toilets were shut, so it was a quick scoot to the shopping outlet. In future we will meet at Sainsbury's where there is petrol and a pee. Andy and Sue, Martyn and Sue with Paul and Pat in the VX. At Matlock Paul let me have a little drive around the car park in his VX, for which I feel very honoured, it is harder than a Westfield to get in and out of and you see nothing out of the rear view mirror, it felt a positive drive, it was lovely . It certainly looks the biz too. We sliced a route through the centre of the Peak District, meeting the Spire Classic Car Run coming in the opposite direction, so lots of waving there then. Up the very fine Winnats Pass, just look at that empty tarmac begging for my 4 new tyres, of which I am exceptionally pleased with, exceptionally. Then it was a slow run down Mam Nick to take in the scenery Arriving at the Rambler Inn at 11.55am, just before it opened, meaning an empty car park and pub, simples. A table for 8 soon became a table for 10 when Chris and Mo arrived. The feasting began The view of the Great Mam Tor Ridge from the car park. Bonnets Off - the view of the great 2 litre Zetec in Andy's car, complete with a gold rocker cover. We could have another caption competition with this photo! Paul went next with his turbo 2 l which he has just changed the cam belt and water pump on, it's service day tomorrow, he keeps a nice car there. Andy and Sue ready for the off We set off for more of those views over Mam Nick, those hills, those twisty roads, all lacking cow poo. We were now a 5 car convoy, with Chris and Mo. We arrived at the cake stop and parked in our designated area To the grand finale, the cake, but someone couldn't wait, so we had an empty plate on the table didn't we Paul? All the ingredients for a great day out - driving, bonnets off, eating, scenery and great company, thank you to everyone for making it happen. It's Shelsley Walsh next weekend so we hope to see you all back in the Peak District the weekend after.

I’m looking at my phone and @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club SecretaryHas a film to watch on his eyelids. You’d be better placed asking @westyjord87 where his Ibiza special shades have gone

Have they woken up yet?

This is what I bought in July 2017, looked like a bug of some sort To day I'm much happier, a lot of help from members on here to keep Ruby running!

its allways a pleasure to see this nice machine... Even that we all know that is the right car with the wrong wings...

Just given a fresh polish after washing earlier this evening, ready to head to France in the morning!

This was two years ago, but I love it,thanks Marcus.

My word. Not expecting that Dave. Thankyou so much for the kind comments. Much appreciated.

And video number 1... Wow. Very moving. Its funny, I remember some of the conversations in the early days when you were trying to get certain pics, but just hadn’t quite found the technique. You always did have a great eye for the shots though, landscape especially. Boy does it now show in your videos, it’s not just the individual shots though, you’ve really developed a flair for putting them together into fantastically evocative pieces. I just wish we could put moving pictures in the Club Mag, so that more people could see!

Took my daughter out for a spin last weekend - which involved a quick shandy

So I did the event and am pleased to say it was amazing!!! The car held out brilliantly without any issues - although it's confirmed I do need to fit a swirl pot (any recommendations on the swirl pot and low pressure pump to go for on a 2.0 Zetec black top??), and was an absolute blast to drive. I got consistently quicker over the course of the evening, and barring one tank slapper on the chicane into the start finish straight, I kept it on the track and hit some great lines. Some of the equipment out there was crazy, including a bright orange Porsche 911 GT3 RS which was blisteringly quick, and lots of modified hot hatches that we just too quick (in the straights anyway!) to keep tabs on, but you'll be pleased to hear that the solitary Caterham out there I was able to run down and overtake :-) As I say, quicker machines out there (mine's pulling around 170 bhp in a more road focussed car) but I didn't see many of them having as much fun. And yes there were the mandatory kn*b heads on track with disregard for the safety briefing, overtaking where ever they wanted (including lunges down the inside as you turn in on the natural racing line) - but it was good to see a few of them beached in the sand, steam pouring from the engine bay! I've certainly got the bug for more now - looking at other amendments I can make to the car - wide track front with ARB, swirl pot, damper settings and air pressures to fettle - then more power.....!!!!!!!

Anyone got any jump leads for a 1968 vintage AO ? @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Secretary
