***Neo_VR*** · 21-07-2007, 11:47

I just got up, so im not coming

hope everyone has a great day... watch out for some mysterious yellow thing in the sky..

Makefish · 21-07-2007, 16:12

Really good day (graphs to follow later as there are quite a few to scan in!). Jasons car did REALLY well but the little tike left the Nos on after being told that he would'nt be allowed to

.

Anyway, really enjoyed it and a big thanks once again to JKM for looking after us

predator · 21-07-2007, 16:28

Was a good day i really enjoyed it

and it was nice to be able to put faces to names so to speak, having never been to anything like this before you always wonder what to expect

you all seem to be a good bunch and i was made to feel welcome what with being a newbie, will deff be along to the next one but somehow i do not think my vrs will be standard by then in actual fact i know it wont be.

Basil · 21-07-2007, 16:41

POST THE RR RESULTS!! (yes I am shouting.........)

**VRStu** · 21-07-2007, 17:18

They'll be on the JKM website as soon as Keith is able to sort them out.

He was wrestling with a TVR when I left this afternoon.

Harry_vRS · 21-07-2007, 17:25

Sorry I couldn't make it. Maybe next time.

smstext · 21-07-2007, 17:40

Yeah,def a great day and a nice run in makefish's vrs even through he claimed it was slow with passengers :o

TeflonTom · 21-07-2007, 17:42

yep, great day.... old keith and jimbo are top notch... they even put up with me asking silly "what does this do?" questions about thier rolling road

**tfboy** · 21-07-2007, 17:54

I'll start a new thread for the results / discussions as this one is rather long

**VRStu** · 21-07-2007, 17:59

Harry

It seems the Forge valve does have the desired effect. I'll no doubt get you on MSN later.

Hedge · 21-07-2007, 18:11

Thanks to JKM for today. Apologies to everyone else as I was a little preoccupied with my bluetooth kit.
Nice to see a few more new faces hopefully we can meet again sometime.

**tfboy** · 21-07-2007, 18:23

We both forgot about the TRAX payment didn't we?

I had a good day and very happy with the result. I think it would have been simliar without the NOS on, but I left it on as I really wanted a result with it. I perhaps foolishly didn't tell anyone. It's safe enough - It would never pop an engine like on a petrol - totally different style of system. I apologise for any indiscretion I may have done at JKM though.

Paypal payment sent.

**tfboy** · 21-07-2007, 20:36

Don't talk to me about payment. Steve almost had me sign on the line for the order of an Octy2 vrs

I reckon if it had Xenons you would have!

Hedge · 21-07-2007, 21:04

If you are talking about the yellow one then I think you should Xav.

**VRStu** · 21-07-2007, 21:19

Oh yes the yellow one!!!

I only drove it a mile or so and I felt like everyone was looking at me - certainly a bold statement.

TeflonTom · 21-07-2007, 21:41

maybe they should throw in some sun glasses with the deal!

devonutopia · 21-07-2007, 21:52

Speaking of sunglasses, this is one of the few meets I've been to where I've needed sunglasses and a damn big umbrella at the same time.

**tfboy** · 21-07-2007, 22:19

If the yellow one was a diesel, I would have been tempted, but pretty sure it was a petrol as I guess it was the one Chrissie brought down.

The silver one looked very nice and had a very decent discount on it, and was a diesel, but I'd also want rear leccy windows and xenons which it didn't. Picky I know

DaveU · 22-07-2007, 07:02

Was there a yellow vRS there? I didn't notice!

Was good to see everyone, even if only 30 minutes! I hope the weather got a bit better later on - it certainly didn't for me as I headed all over the place during the day, it was thoroughly miserable
