Just back from a few days holiday in sunny (but very windy) Norfolk to find the tickets on the mat. ;D I need to check out what is inside the envelope and then I'll post up the meeting place and time, but prob best at Reading Services (west bound) on the M4 early Saturday am, but I'll confirm shorty. Not sure there'll be many 'spare' tickets though - will have to check with Andy who originally purchased some. TTFN Si Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: simon131 on September 16, 2011, 06:50:14 AM Hi guys,
I would have posted this up yesterday but was back to A&E again (another three hours of my life I won't get back ::)), this time with Wendy who has hurt her left foot - never rains but it pours, eh? I've checked the details and the organisers would like us parked up in our alloted space by 08.45. I personally think this is a bit of a tall order considering how far some of you are travelling so I'd like to suggest that we meet at Reading Services at 08.15 to 08.30. Please park in the main car park rather than parking up in the petrol station area - there's usually plenty of room at the end of one of the rows. Please let me know if you can't now come or if you have a 'issue' en-route. See you tomorrow - bring your waterproofs - it's supposed to chuck it down all day >:( ;) Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: jasonh131 on September 16, 2011, 06:37:49 PM Ill stick the gazzzzbo in ,not for the scorcing heat of last time ;D ;D ;D ;D

Great show in wiltshire cotswolds with our friends and managed to get round all of it,we had a good spot in the paddock next to the stratos replicas , some nice bit off italian stuff from 037 to hf fulvia out shinning the mass of fords and scoobys. chucked it down every half an hour ;D got drenched watching the rally stage , the rally raid with the bowlers and wildcats (dakar type 4x4 ), was awesome ,and the 1/5 scale r/c bugges jumping real cars was super love the smell off nitro ;D Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: Phil on September 18, 2011, 01:35:56 PM A good day out, shame about the weather lots to see an do. Jason's gazebo was a greta help in staying dry, unfortunatly we had to take it down fractionally before it blew down, but Simon did manage to field it with his head ;D ;D

Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: kev131 on September 18, 2011, 01:42:51 PM Great to see the 131s getting their rightful recognition after years of neglect... :)
Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: Phil on September 18, 2011, 01:43:51 PM As we were leaving Reading services, the last thing Simon said was: you can't miss Castle Coombe look out for the big brown sign :-\ but you can if your duelling with a Scooby ??? ???
Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: Phil on September 18, 2011, 01:50:04 PM Simon revelling in the fact he doesn't have to go home in a second rate Japenese car (baa!)
Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: simon131 on September 18, 2011, 03:53:19 PM Nice pics Phil. Next time though do you think you can photoshop my face? Perhaps so that it looks a few pounds lighter..... ;) 8)
Thanks for the reminder about the Subaru incident too - it was a pretty colour but probably not worth missing my exit on the M4 for though, eh? ;) ;D Title: Re: rally day 2011 Post by: n2oxide on September 18, 2011, 06:44:11 PM Yes, there is truly nothing like the smell of burning nitro !
You were next to us with the Sunbeam Lotus cars.................Sunbeam Lotus, 131's and Stratos.............three of the greatest cars known to motorsport side by side. Shame about the weather; and the RB5's parked behind us all !
