As Bro quoted earlier going if Bro and Spike go, otherwise not, but have no faith in the car whatsoever, as the few who went last year know a lot of money lost, so will possibly go as a passenger with Bro or whoever would like my shit company

Is my company not enough/good enough for you?

[WR1 Bro]

Or... you could take your car and just enjoy the drive?

Either way Pasty if it all comes off then you and Spike are more than welcome in my car. I personally prefer the convoy drive because that always puts a smile on my face... You know the stuff... even the drive from DSA to the hotel was a scream in convoy. Having said that... so long was we get to share a pint or two then F*ck the Ring.

Know what your saying, but until I have some faith in the car it will only be used for shopping

did you mention biere

[WR1 Bro]

If you want the truth.... I don't feel worthy of your company mate.

[danr55]

big WR1oc meet in Germany for beer. A bit of driving too would be great. and some track action at the Ring. I agree, it;s great to have a line of Scoobs in Convoy, but I'd much rather have as many people as poss, so happy to take passengers.

Would seriously be awesome if we could get a good turnout

[WR1 Bro]

Looks like I need to get some new tyres, a map tweak with Bob, geo setup and new suspension before August.

Will depend on cash availability and if there is a suitable car in the garage

[The Swede]

Hei... I just realised I won't have the Evo anymore as the leasing runs out mid June

Need to think what I would drive there.

Bring a caravan and sell bacon butties to help soak up the alcohol... Just remember, if you can't find your wallet.... check in your top pocket.

Excellent, I will remember !

No. LMAO at Stu's comment about my wallet.

Last when we went for a curry, I put my wallet on the table at a moment.
Then, without paying attention, I put it away but I managed to stuff it in the one pocket of my jacket where there is hardly any space to put it in...

When we come out, I notice my wallet is 'missing' as it's not in the normal pocket.
As it wasn't in the restaurant, Spike and Bro were obvious suspects. Given the amount of beer they had consumed, I suspected a prank... but then found the wallet stuffed in that one small top pocket.

[The Swede]

Don't know for two reasons:

1. I won't have the Evo probably and am unsure I'll be able to afford another car that is track-worthy in the next 12 months.

2. It all depends on the turn-out. This year we had 6 people and one by one they chickened out over 100 quid whereas I was prepared to spend 3K to make it to that meeting

If we want to reduce the cost and avoid the summer period when we are at risk that many of us are on family holiday, maybe we should really look at doing a few days to the region and go to Zolder and the Ring.

Zolder costs about 230 Euros from 12 til 18 (generally more than enough for all of us to be bored) and it includes training and instruction.

so are you going to look into the possibility of Zolder?

[Megaman]

okay guys have we decided on where we are going yet / how much it will be roughly / how long we need off work / are spouses welcome etc??

[Megaman]

oh btw - i think someone should bring marky mark or some other mechanic with them in case anyone has any issues throughout the journey

[The Swede]

Spouses always welcome. All the partners I met so far (Helen, Heather, Jen,...) were all good fun. Sure mine will be there to keep the spirits up.

I personally think we'll get more success trying to set something in spring than in middle of the summer.

If we want, there is a track day at Croix-en-Ternois 14 April. Could do that combined with a trip to Ring and I can guide us past some of the stages of the Ypres rally and the rallies in the Ardennes.

When is Easter ?

[RobinSherwood]

When is Easter ?

10th April is Good Friday

12th April is Easter Sunday

13th April Easter Monday

[The Swede]

Would that 14th then not be a good date ?

They said max price is 195 Euros or something for the trackday.

April doesnt work. Try again! How about August?

[The Swede]

Why does April not work ?

May ? June ?

[danr55]

May or June may be OK

[500tie]

Dont suppose a non wr1 owner would be welcome would he??

[WR1 Bro]

As always with the WR1oc, all are welcome. Even Poesy is loved on this forum and he drives french toss.

[danr55]

Absolutely, get your name down

[500tie]
