[Skully]

Wheres the nearest charger?

Tesla Model 3

 

[ScoobyDoo69]

Ask your Tesla.

 

[scaza]

I'll come along to this. The MX5 can stay at home though.

Hairdressers Car #2 - 135i Vert.

 

[dacads]

Numbers seem to have dwindled for these meets.

I’ll come in my 130i, no turbos or fancy batteries

 

[Theophany]

I'm provisionally keen, but need to confirm once my diary is firmed up as April is usually a mad month for me.

RS6 if I can make it.

 

[zia]

I,ll come along too weather permitting, interested in what time my car will do.......Nissan Pulsar

Zia

 

[Jonnycoupe]

Haven’t been there for years!

Numbers have dwindled on the car scene generally IMO, let alone places like forums!

 

[Gibbo]

Everyone grew up maybe or moved on?
Anyway hope to make this also as I want that 10s pass so I won’t be coming in Abarth or S2000 lol.

 

[nicRob]

I should be there, doubt I'll be running though

Not IME, local shows are bigger than ever. Castle Combe is absolutely heaving at the action days, much busier than even 5 years ago.

I’m not too fussed on a drag day, also it’s a bloody trek for me. I’ll be there for any dyno / track / show meets though

 

[ScoobyDoo69]

Sorry I'll correct myself.

Cars that are leased/PCP'd/lowered/mapped/DSG meets are booming.

Real car events, arranged on a forum, less so

 

[ReAPeR101]

Hi Kosta.

Yes.

Weather pending, i shall do a couple of early runs, then probably disappear as i have a friends birthday in London that night

11.16 @ 128 mph to beat. ( Stage 4.25 with SSIC, extra 42bhp and 29 lb torque )

So much truth to this. Like minded people who appreciate engineering and the sorts are hard to come by with all the “scene” stuff that’s going on these days.

 

[Warranty_V0id]

Add me to the runners list please.

 

[Juicy Jama]

Add me to the runners list please.

Username checks out

 

[Frozennova]

I'll come along, I have nothing to run in though

 

[TomO]

will check the calendar as wanting to get an official time in the M3.

 

[ScoobyDoo69]

List updated.
