sounds very interesting ,ne1 any ideas what sorta milage we talkin from bradford n how long would take? if ya dnt no where it is then just use leeds as a idea of where im travelin from.

[Rallye James]

Just go to multimap and get directions from your postcode to CV37 8LL. It'll give you a rough time for the trip too :)

[danvilla2]

Its in south warwickshire if that helps, going to take you a few hours.

http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=400000.572037232&Y=200000.921574881&width=700&height=400&gride=415284.572037232&gridn=248454.921574881&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=freegaz&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovtype=&keepicon=true&zm=0&scale=2000000&up.x=361&up.y=3

[G124EME_XSI]

:( 2hrs 53 mins its abit of a distance for 1 day.

[danvilla2]

took me and toby about 4 hours to get to santa pod about a year ago!! lol

Although that was because we got lost and there was a diversion which added to the time.

[mikey_b]

is this going to be the midlands meet? seems a bit pointless having 2 in 2 months, rather have 1 bigger one which everyone can attend.

[danvilla2]

is this going to be the midlands meet? seems a bit pointless having 2 in 2 months, rather have 1 bigger one which everyone can attend.

True, make this the big midlands meet.

[G124EME_XSI]

Cheers

[Wizza]

Great... I have to have an exam three days later didn't I...

Would have loved to come!!!

[Quiksilver_TR]

Only a few weeks left before this.

Still plenty of time to get your names down and your cars running sweet.

[Marcs]

What is it?

I might come as i dont know anyone on here bout time i met some people.

James would you be up for meeting somewhere on the way and driving up together?

[Quiksilver_TR]

This is a Run What You Brung Day, where the public can use the drag strip.

You dont have to race though. Can just park up and watch the action.

[Marcs]

Awesome:D

I had always wondered what RWYB ment:p

Count me in:D

Did you say £10 to come and a further £20 to go on the strip?

[Quiksilver_TR]

Entry is £15 for the day and another £20 to use the strip.

So if you do both, entry and strip £35. etc.

[Marcs]

Yea add my name why not:p

[Rallye James]

Who's up for a South West convoy to the Shakespeare RWYB day weekend after next? I'll be getting on the M5 at Bridgwater and can stop off at any junctions along the way for people to join up. Then we'll just follow the M5 to Tewkesbury and then find our way from there :)

[Fuzzy Orange]

Dont know mate - had planned to drive down on my own - but i'll pop over to the m1 and meet you or come through to donny if you want mate

[Marcs]

[t_m_evans]

[t_m_evans]

Mikey if you can let me knwo what the plans are for people going from leicester are i might be swayed??

[Quiksilver_TR]

I am meeting Danvilla2 at Highnam Roundabout just outside of Gloucester @ 9.45-10.

What time you getting to Tewksbury James?

I got SatNAv so it should be a breeze!

[mikey_b]

ok mate check back during the week there will be some details up

[Rallye James]

Not sure yet, I'm the only one coming from down this way AFAIK. I'll have a look at the times tonight but meeting at Tewkesbury sounds cool. Satnav would be helpful too :D

[danvilla2]

Add stuff you want to sell at RWYB, if you going to RWYB, take a look see if someones got something you want for a bargain and save postage hassle!!

Looks like i will be attending with a damaged car though! Cant get the bodyshop to rush it through before the weekend!

[Fuzzy Orange]

I'm sure theres more than that - Joe is going aswell

[danvilla2]

If you decide you dont want to take your car tob's, i can always pick you up mate

[Quiksilver_TR]

I'm sure theres more than that - Joe is going aswell

Theres a couple that havent added to the list so I think we are close to the 20people mark.

[Quiksilver_TR]

If you decide you dont want to take your car tob's, i can always pick you up mate

yeah cheers mate.
Would like to take it though, just to give a good drive up there.

[gazz]

Looks like I'll be driving up on my own! No one from my area to convoy with:(

[Dargs]

Willing to meet people at the a46 budbrooke services if no-ones 100% sure where it is, would be suitable for people coming from coventry/leicester direction.

[Fuzzy Orange]

Dargs could you do that matey?

Me and Mikey arent 100% where we are going - I'm either coming down the A46 to leicester or down the M1 depending on if Joe and Mark want to convoy down with me

Could do with meeting someone on the M1 who knows where they are going :)

[Dargs]

Yep not a problem at all mate, i have to pass it anyway, its the same place i met you and nealey last time.

[Fuzzy Orange]

Ahhh yeah I remember it

Spot on! I'll get Mark and Joe to meet me up here and then i'll meet you guys and mikey at that same service place :)

[Quiksilver_TR]

I reckon we can be at J9 M5 (Tewksbury) for about 10.30, all being well.

How does meeting somewhere on the A46 soon after the motorway junction sound?

This is on the road that it says we should be taking.

[gazz]

I'll meet you lot there as well then. I have to go past it too :)

What time you going to be meeting there?

[Fuzzy Orange]

Not sure how early people want to go?

10ish?

[Rallye James]

It's about two hours from my place to Tewkesbury so 10:30 will be fine :)

[Seph]

Im in, what time and where we meeting Fuzz???

[gazz]

Yeah I could be at the services at around 10ish :D

[peedee]

I haven't got a clue on this shakespeare thing? I thought he was brown bread?:D

[Fuzzy Orange]

Im gonna try and get over to woodall services on the M1 for about 9am on Sunday morning and then convoy down to Leicester to meet Mikey and Dargs

If anyone from leeds/donny or anywhere up north wants to drive down with me we can meet at woodall services southbound??

[Seph]

9 AM at woodhall services, me and a black gti-6 shall be meeting you there Mr Fuzz.

[peedee]

Il come!! See if i can break the 13 second barrier!!

Was you at the saxp meet at Lakeside the other night mate?

Black VTR (VTS) on TB's?

[Quiksilver_TR]

It's about two hours from my place to Tewkesbury so 10:30 will be fine :)

Nice one James.

You got my number if anything changes.

Cheers

[vtr170]

yeh thats the one mate!!

Is this the racewars show btw?? Or general rwyb!

[Quiksilver_TR]

It is a RWYB incoparated with Shakespeed.

[GhostWKD]

could really be tempted by this, Rallye will be mot'd on the 16th :D

Racewars is on the Sat iirc, with teh RWYB on the sunday...

Anyone know how many runs you get typically? dont want to go to get like 2 runs for my £20 (plus whatever entry is) done that at pod before, is no fun

[Fuzzy Orange]

Last time I went on a sunday I could EASILY have got 10+ runs in

[GhostWKD]

Awesome :D and its just up the road from me too :)

Gutted the turbo cinq isnt running for it :( never got to run it down 1/4 mile when was setup :(

but shall see how sat goes and decide if to pop along then :D

will try keep an eye out for the batch of 106's :D though i'll probably disappear soon after to sign on etc... someone best say hi to me :o :D

[danvilla2]

Yeah we had loads of runs last time, think dargs stayed all night going up and down we had left when he was still burning up the track lol

[Steve GTI]

I would like to come to this, will see if my girlfriend lets me :lol:

[Fuzzy Orange]

LOL lets you??

Thats all sorts of wrong mate!

[GhostWKD]

you should demand she gives you permission to go :D (Family Guy for those fellow cartoon fans out there lol)

[alan4106quiksilver]

I would like to come to this, will see if my girlfriend lets me :lol:
im in the same boat as you mate:o

[Steve GTI]

Well she has a thing about 1/4 miles! Last time i left her on the bank of santa pod (i was supposed to do 3 runs) after about 15 runs she found me and a mate in the lap dancing tent at USC!!!!

[Seph]

1 word.

QUALITY

[vtr170]

Is the strip quicker than the pod?? Where do people generally run better 1/4's? Wot time does the strip close??

[danvilla2]

Is the strip quicker than the pod?? Where do people generally run better 1/4's? Wot time does the strip close??

I had same times, 17.3's, santa pad seems to have more of an incline than shakespeare

[vtr170]

Bring on the 13's i say!! Is there a convoy?

[Fuzzy Orange]

Theres a south east and a north convoy

And loads of us are meeting on the M1 near leicester

Dunno which direction sandhurst is mate

[Fuzzy Orange]

Shakespeare is definatly a bit quicker, its a grippier surface, not glass like pod! :D

[vtr170]

Well good! Maybe i get get off at more than 2k at santa pod, lol.... Im south east near reading!

[Dargs]

Yeah we had loads of runs last time, think dargs stayed all night going up and down we had left when he was still burning up the track lol

Yeah theres never really a que after 4 o clock, just keep going round and round :D

Track usually closes about 5/5.30

[Steve GTI]

What sort of times do GTI's get?

What would you expect a very well running engined GTI with 4-2-1 mani, cat back and induction kit to get?

If i came would it be worth stripping the rear out bearing in mind there is a bit of ICE in the boot?

[vtr170]

strip it mine is fully!! Depends nythin from 16 to low 15's depending on driver!

[vtr170]

To shakespeare raceway...Going to be goin up on the m40!! Any1 else from around the area?

[Dargs]

Fuzzy whats your journey plan now then? Still need to meet at the a46 by budbrooke or you going a diffrent way?

[vtr170]

I started a south east convoy thread!! If any1 wants to join me ;)

[mikey_b]

im meeting you there dargs i think, not sure what phils doin now, thought he was meeting somebody up north on the m1 then meeting us on the a46

[Dargs]

Yeah thats kool mikey, got a perticular time in mind? Did it come up on your route planner?

Its the A46 Budbrooke services, just after the 'STANKS' junction which is the junction for Warwick Parkway Train station.

[mikey_b]

ive no idea mate never driven that way really, ill look into it tomorrow

[Fuzzy Orange]

Im coming straight down the M1 matey - so could do with meeting in that services we met last time??

Unless you want me to get off on the A46 and meet you guys somewhere

Just tell me where :D

Should be about 10am

[Dargs]

No thats kool Phil, 10 o clock it is, give or take a few mins lol

Mikey let me know if you have any probs finding it

[vtr170]

Weather looks iffy!!

[Fuzzy Orange]

http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1577

Nah looks fine for warwick on sunday

Sunny intervals and 13c is ideal racing weather, its not too hot so cars wont overheat
As long as it doesnt rain and shut the track we'll be laughing!

[vtr170]

Depends which website you look at ;)!! Well if im going to come i better get my head down and learn my history notes.

[danvilla2]

what time am i meeting you tobs?Forgot mate

[Quiksilver_TR]

between 9.30 and 9.45.
Should take us less than 1/2 hour to get to Tewksbury to meet James.

James, once you are on the A46 you will go through a place called ashchurch, past the MOD base and then there is a set of Tarffic lights with a pub on your right, i think it is called the queens head, shortly after that there is a layby on the left hand side.

I am informed that this is a good place to meet.

Cheers

[Rallye James]

OK, that sounds good to me :)

See you tomorrow

[Quiksilver_TR]

just checked the weather again and it still looks like it will be overcast, with sunny intervals.

[gazz]

Are people still meeting at the services mentioned above by Dargs?

[Dargs]

Theres a pub just under 5 mins away if the weather does turn really crap so could go there. Just be a bummer with haveing payed to go in etc

i have faith the weathers going to be good anyway :)

Just going to clean the car now!

*edit* I have to go past it anyway gazz so i will stop of there on the way, but as far as i know yes a couple of us are meeting there

[vtr170]

Shit i aint cleaned the car of well!! Goin stealth mode innit ;)... Im not even joking im gettin up at 5, to do my revision just so i can giv it some stick down the 1/4!! Woop woop.

[Fuzzy Orange]

UPDATE

Official meeting place for convoy in on the A46 is a service station (small one) here

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=CV35+8RH&ie=UTF8&ll=52.286094,-1.611989&spn=0.074976,0.159645&z=13&om=1

Dargs is waiting there at 10am, me and mikey and probably dan will be there at 10am too

I am NOT going to doncaster or M1 services as Joe has unfortunatly had a car break down which is fairly serious so wont be coming :(

So I'm gonna jump straight onto the A46 into leicester across the m1 onto the M69 round coventry then A46 to the meeting point

If anyone from leicester or surrounding areas wants to meet they need to text me tonight :)

[danvilla2]

Don't Forget Driving Licenses To Go On Track!!

[vtr170]

Weather looks 70/30 ;)

[mikey_b]
