Junkman Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Dear friends, The first significant motorsports event of the year is drawing close. We decided to finally make this a fully fledged Autoshite event, with several people already having signalled interest. The details are as follows: 28th April 2018 - 15:30 Chesterton Stadium – Loomer Road Chesterton, Staffordshire, ST5 7LB We could meet beforehand for a sophisticated reduction of the inner diameter of our cardiovascular veins at the: Hungry Horse - Chatterley Whitfield Carsington Drive Brindley Village Tunstall, Staffordshire, ST6 5GA The suggested meeting time is 13:00, then set off to the racetrack at about 14:30, which would give us sufficient time to check out the sophisticated*,carefully* prepared racing bolides in all their pre race glory*. The event is notable for its all round friendly, fun and laid back atmosphere, so bring your mini yous along. chaseracer, solid61, fordperv and 5 others 8
fordperv Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I hope im not working on this day, im not too far away and like a bit of carnage, just been speaking to mrs fp and if we go were taking her grandad along as he loved it last time we went to watch the bangers Junkman 1
primeradoner Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I will be there as usual. Im not bringing a car of my own this year but my team mates will be in attendance with some fine examples of wheeled ferrous oxide. Junkman 1
flat4alfa Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Fancy this But the missus says I have to back to Milton Keynes for 7pm so would have to scarper before the final and DD
Junkman Posted March 25, 2018 Author Posted March 25, 2018 I will be there as usual. Im not bringing a car of my own this year but my team mates will be in attendance with some fine examples of wheeled ferrous oxide. Are you coming to the HH beforehand?
chaseracer Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 But the missus says I have to back to Milton Keynes for 7pm so would have to scarper before the final and DD Be a shame if you "broke down"... Junkman 1
Disco Fever Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I really like the sound of this so intend to be there with ‘er indoors and the yoofs for the full HH and onto the racing bit. Already on the calendar. Thanks. Junkman 1
primeradoner Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Are you coming to the HH beforehand?No mate I am taking one. possibly two cars down on my truck.
strangeangel Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I would love to, but unfortunately I'll be repeatedly slamming my wedding tackle in a door that day.
bub2006 Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I would love to, but unfortunately I'll be repeatedly slamming my wedding tackle in a door that day.Sounds fun?!

Junkman Posted March 26, 2018 Author Posted March 26, 2018 GGG = Granadaland Greenhouse Gassers CIA = Climate Improvement® Appeal©
Junkman Posted March 29, 2018 Author Posted March 29, 2018 Nope. It's a Granadaland Greenhouse Gassers' Climate Improvement Appeal. So who's going to meet at the Hungry Horse?
Zantimisfit Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 GGG = Granadaland Greenhouse Gassers CIA = Climate Improvement® Appeal© Thought it was 'God, Guns and Gays'.....the principal obsessions of middle America (and a great reason not to bother going there) Lacquer Peel 1
primeradoner Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 Just updating this. We have been allocated our heats and the final car tally is 178 under litres and 105 over 2 litres Its going to be a busy night! We are in the first heat of the night so usual scenario for us is, go out, wreck car and watch the rest of the meeting. Squire_Dawson, Junkman, Jim Bell and 1 other 4
Jim Bell Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 I'll try and head down for this. Never been to a banger event before.
Jim Bell Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 I'll try and head down for this. Never been to a banger event before. Scratch that. Just mentioned it to the missus and apparently we are having a weekend in Harrogate that she reminds me of often if unsucesfully.
Squire_Dawson Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 There won't be many opportunities left to see events like this.
flat4alfa Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Glad to see this Racing Rules ALL Heats Strictly Nudge & SpinAll-Comers Full Contact NO turning roundFinals Full Contact NO turning round Turned-about Previas and Rodii sitting on the corners spoiled the final Wimbledon meeting for me, as an audience member Any Imperials booked on this one?
treehugger Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Sure there will be..............imps are banned under ORC rules!
Squire_Dawson Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 Why are Imps (and presumably certain other cars) banned?
D Spares & Tyres Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 Because you will die when squished between a Farina and a P5
