You should find out which Sunday the max-power brigade drag from the BBC roundabout to Via Fossa in central Nottingham, and cane them all in your Volvo's! Some very amusing mods to be laughed at too. Well recommended.

I'll try my best to get there. I will get back to Birmingham airport that morning from Frankfurt Book Fair (oh the joys of my job!) so I may have difficulty getting a day release pass from the missus - unless I drag my three year old with me.
If I have a pint or two he can drive me home...
t5owner
Friday 7th October 2005, 13:57
Excellent if you can make it the more the merrier
No probs if you want to bring the nipper as if we go for a pub lunch it`ll be at a family friendly place
I`ll put u on the list as a possible

I just thought the starting gate could be a good meet up place, wobbly and myself have used it as it has a nice bit of single carriageway test track, nearby.

Sounds good lance
We could always pop across the road to the carvery if anyone fancies a real big sunday lunch
Other than that i was thinking perhaps Millers Barn on the phoenix park nice grub and a fair sized carpark and fairly central for all of us as its just off jnc 26 of the M1 or possibly the Priory on the A52 near wollaton massive carpark and excellent grub
Thoughts anyone

Im easy pleased so anywhere with enough room and a cough test track road nearby will be cool , Real ale and quality cheap food come secondary in that order. Probably best near one of the motorway junctions so my first idea was pants!
Proiry sounds a good location.

Sunday 16th October 2005, 21:09
Ok guys and gals i`ve spoken to both pubs millers barn and the priory no need to book in advance for lunch just turn up on the day
So which one are we goin too and what time do people have in mind
I think about 11:30 ish would be ideal so we could gawp :saythat: at each others cars first and then into the pub for a pint and some lunch
So just the venue to decide on Millers Barn is probs the easiest as its just off JNC 26 of the M1 and local to most of us from the notts fraternity
Although the priory isn`t to hard to get to from JNC 25 of the M1 and it does have a massive carpark and plenty of nice roads with no cameras in the locality
Thoughts on the above pls
Cheers

Right then so that moppy can`t get lost shall we say The Priory at about 11:30 ish on Sunday 23 rd of October 2005
Easy to get to as below
Notts members:
Take the A52 from QMC r/bout towards derby pub is sited on the right as you approach the priory r/bout
Members coming from M1:
Leave M1 at JNC 25 and take exit for A52 Nottingham follow the A52 which is dual carridgeway for about 4 miles until you come to a large r/bout with a shell petrol station on the right hand side over r/bout towards nottingham and the pub is on the left first exit after the r/bout
Derby members:
A52 towards nottingham over the M1 JNC 25 flyover and then as above
I think that covers everybody who`s attending from various directions
See you all there
Mobile if anyone wants it:07944 750545

Does anyone have any portable kit for putting out the Lambada ? light ?
I overboosted a couple of weeks ago whilst fitting a new manual boost controller, and its been on ever since.
Wondered if anyone had any ideas or suggestions for this at the Notts meet.
Thanks,
Steve.

Sorry mate - being a Yorkshireman I tend to say what I think and then think about what I say after ;) No offence. But you had your doubts already :)

Err, its actually what I was told rather than knew! So I blame someone else.....as per usual
Still its a mod I could now do!!

The thought just struck me that it could be a multi purpose bar i:e it`s a strut brace of sorts as its deffo attached to the susp turrets on the side as opp to the top so that would give the ridgidity between the two and at the same time also serves as the top engine mount hanger as volvo seem to have done away with the bulkhead/firewall mounting bracket on P2`s :icon_soap
So i could be wrong and may have to eat humble pie on this one
