I think you need to come along and drown your sorrows amongst friends

Yes and no... but easier said than done when driving.

HarryH · 06-07-2007, 08:02

I'm afraid I can't make it, family emergency. Sorry

MissKia · 06-07-2007, 08:31

Sorry you can't make it Harry, hope everything's ok.

The pub's car park is going to look like a Skoda dealership with this many Skoda's parked up!

Is anyone coming who has their Fabia VRS remapped as I'd be eager to find out who you used / would recommend.

orinj · 06-07-2007, 10:19

Sorry for my absence on this thread guys. I have been aware of this meet but will probably not be able to join you as I'm away for the rest of the weekend and need tonight to prepare for some DJ gigs. I might be able to pop by for a drink or two.

Chris... keep that engine revving!

vRS19TD · 06-07-2007, 10:22

I would have come but it's a bit far to go just for an evening.

I don't think you'll be disapointed.

Would be good to see you again mate, hope you can make it even it's for just one drink

Superchips 201bhp

and before that custom code IIRC it hit 177ish bhp on the superchips RR

Link to scans:
http://www.mirror-web.co.uk/briskoda/scan0001.jpg - std/superchips
http://www.mirror-web.co.uk/briskoda/scan0002.jpg - custom code (made for std turbo, no FMIC) /superchips

I've got a pretty dodgy boost pipe off the turbo at the moment which causes limp to kick in sometimes, that is not due to the map as such though.

Also have the short shifter mod done that you can see on here, Basil posted it, and it works well IMHO

Not gonna be around for too long but will see if I can give you a little drive.

** Warning ** I've seen a rather large number of police checking for speeding motorists on the M4 (both directions near the A34 roundabout) as well as on the A34 near Didcot over the past week. Please be cautious

Xleon · 06-07-2007, 12:47

Great!
I'll be there about 7:30pm when I finish work.

southpaw · 06-07-2007, 12:54

Hopefully see you all a bit later on

Thanks. Your timing is impeccable!

WW_VRS · 06-07-2007, 14:19

Just remembered to post it - I've been working a few long nights and got into work a bit later than my usual (pre-police) travels, so spotted a fair few.

Annoyingly I can't remember the unmarked Ford Mondeo's plates

- rest were normal traffic cars

smstext · 06-07-2007, 15:15

Im still coming down, just need a team of valeters to carefully clean my car again once i get down as its currently clean and i want it to stay that way lol

Xleon · 06-07-2007, 15:23

In that case, I'll have to park mine down the road and walk up as I gave up washing it with all the rain we've been having, so it's a bit grimy.

(I wash it in the morning, - it's covered in brick dust brought down in the heavy rain by the afternoon.)

See you there.

WW_VRS · 06-07-2007, 21:31

Well I did make it, nice to see you all. Shame I couldn't stay longer, had to dash back to work.

Showing my need for Rear Parking Sensors retrofit on my car I kindly drove into Stu's pride and joy. Can't apologise enough, will get this sorted out as soon as possible.

Hopefully next time I will both avoid hitting other vehicles as well as be able to stay for a bit longer!
