Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Great day out, good weather and many thanks for my first ever ride in a Mega S2000 goes to Stu. I now need to finish my car pronto! I trust we covered most relevant road going parts of the performance envelope; brakes, maneuvering, round-about lapping, that sort of thing! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Faulkner Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 As Andy says, not a bad turn out and the weather stayed nice. And a couple of tigers as well.. The drive back was better as we didn't get stuck behind any lorrys, Thanks to Ian, Dave and jon for coming along for the drive. All thats left is for ian to get his finished and if your reading this Ian, get back in the garage. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Faulkner Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 You had to be there, the sound in the tunnel is awesome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Yup, you'd be surprised how critical to the route to the IVA station in Chadderton the airport tunnels were! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Ian, is that tunnel at Hulme End or are you going to introduce me to a newbie? Looks like you all had a great day, the cars look lovely. If I weren't driving back from Northampton Motorsport today I would definitely have joined you, next time though. Kids in a sweet shop comes to mind....did you all buy plenty of goodies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Hi Julie, It could be, I've only cycled through it so will need to check A map. Luckily the Lack of shopping storage curbed spending for most. What have you had done at N.m.s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 There is some footage of the tunnel on this forum somewhere, I er had a couple of goes, it's fun in a Westie. Just a small job like a new ECU, one of those where if you say the cost really quick it hurts less, click 'new content' in 5 mins and the full story is told. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
