Luckily, due to the gearbox / dif problem, I am taking the ubercruiser. Captain reliable

I will still however get maximum cover. Just because you can't trust other people in powder blue cars not to kill you

You could hire a low loader yourself and get it back cheaper than that.

Cool, as I thought. Cheers matey.

Sounds good mate, shall I book it? What time suits you?

#**156** 12-05-2010, 03:40 PM

A good clean lap

Not so good.

#**157** 12-05-2010, 04:30 PM

That is a good lap for sure, did you notice he went onto the grass in almost exactly the same spot as the Porkie that crashed?

Seen the biker one before, I'm sure he used to say "Evo Driver" before though

Must have been re-dubbed by the MLR

Evo driver indeed. To be honest i would of thought Porche. I know it wasn't in this case but they do cause & are involved in allot of the crashes there. Well besides the Scoobs spinning about & setting on fire that is

I like this banter before we set off, it was like this last year, just with a bit more nervousness in it.

Bloody Porsches and M3 are probably the main cause of a lot of crashes there, due to the amount of the old "Sausage Munchers" who get there at the weekends.

Anybody got any idea if the RAC or AA breakdown covers are any good? RAC £35 AA £50?

thats what I got through AA membership...i got it for 35ish

#**163** 12-05-2010, 06:41 PM

Due to my encounter with a deer, i will now hopefully be going as a passenger.
I have a spare ferry booking if any good to anyone,as cant be refunded, but can change details.

Greig · #**164** 12-05-2010, 06:46 PM

When the rac picked up my car last
year they told me the aa won't pick up
modified/ lowered cars. Rac have used
many times before with mates cars etc
and they have been briliant every time!

#**165** 12-05-2010, 07:24 PM

Make sure you phone what ever ins comp your with as fully comp here will not cover you over there. I think it drops to 3rd party only unless you organize it with your comp 1st. Subaru drivers just keep recovery tell numbers to hand please as it got embarrassing last year

Toooooooooooo late car wrecker!

#**171** 13-05-2010, 09:52 PM

The one car I would love to have seen down there (apart from Martyn obviously) would have been Rich (dukeboy) That would have looked the nuts going round the Ring.

Next time Rich

Lucky · #**172** 13-05-2010, 09:56 PM

Agreed, one of the nicest bugs about. It's a pity we wont get to see yours going round tho. I for one was looking forward to seeing that let loose on the autobahns. Maybe next time buddy.

#**173** 13-05-2010, 09:58 PM

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, actually...... things are looking up on that front.

With any kind of luck, I might have it back on Monday

Everything crossed and all that

Lucky · #**174** 13-05-2010, 10:01 PM

Oh Fantastic!, That will be cool. Fingers crossed then. Nothing atall against the M3, they are awesome cars, but the more scoobs for the trip, the better.

For sure mate. The only caveat to that is if Martyn wants a lift down. I wouldn't put him through the torture of the scooby.

#**176** 13-05-2010, 10:08 PM

The more Scoobs to pick on me dont you mean . I may as well put a target on the car

Nah, we know where to find you Nige, at the nearest petrol station!. What was it clarkson said. "A fuel tank the size of a zippo lighter". And that was a standard EVO!.

#**184** 13-05-2010, 10:21 PM

Thats a good point Nige, will you get round the ring on one tank

#**185** 13-05-2010, 10:24 PM

Just think chaps......

........ Just 2 weeks to go!

Happy days

Lucky · #**186** 13-05-2010, 10:26 PM

Cant blinkin wait. OOOOOOh I could crush a grape.

#**187** 13-05-2010, 10:30 PM

2 weeks from now, we'll all be in here, chewing the fat, last minute panics etc etc!

Me and Nige will still be here at about 2.00am like last year

I'm gonna have to find a way of getting online in germany to find out whats going on! i'll be offline from the Saturday morning the weekend before!

#**189** 13-05-2010, 10:37 PM

Phone?

I'm sure you'll find a way mate.

Steve_PPP · #**190** 13-05-2010, 10:44 PM

yep, will probably take the laptop just in case theres free wifi somewhere (do they have costa coffee in germany?

)

worse case it'll be from the Blackberry!

I would be more than happy to take Martyn in a nice comfy WR1 with standard suspension.

I am taking his last years drinking buddy.

That way you can quite happily bring yours Worzel , no excuses now, fingers crossed it will be fixed.

Well, if you could keep up with me, I could give you a draft for the first half....

I dont have your sort of power Steve so i may have to slip stream anyway

#**197** 15-05-2010, 12:19 AM

Mate You must be joking. Yours has got my power and some more. The to follow if he was to go on a quick one would be anger. His scooby is the beast in the pack by far.

#**198** 17-05-2010, 11:17 PM

There is a newbie coming to the ring. His name is Jimmy he built my engine @ JRM top man & mental in a car. He may bring his own car an Alfa 156 or an Evo X if he can borrow it . He went out there last weekend to oversee his Lotus 211 @ the gp circuit then he went next door had a go around the ring in a R/Rover & was hooked. He has Crowmans ferry booking. Also Jaffas mate Paul Egerton is looking for a passenger seat in someones car.

Anger · #**199** 17-05-2010, 11:23 PM

My passenger might not be able to come now

#**200** 17-05-2010, 11:24 PM

I hope everyone is still getting there fancy dress.
I am still on stand by at moment,depends on how things go over next week or so, really do want to come.
Fingers crossed.
