Post 502466 by merc85 on 2012-05-23 21:40:46
Hi everyone, Seeing as i missed the last Essex meet, and a few of us are going to North Weald Airfield for the sprint on the above date,
How about a Mass Vpcuk essex meet on this date at the airfield?
Dont feel you have to run your car's more the merrior, just be good for us all to hook up and even take the pee out of me when i Blow engine and box going up the 1/4 mile straight lol

Perhaps drive up in convoy? just spit balling the idea out there.
If your up for it add your names to the list below.

Might as well put me down as I'm gonna have a go up the strip, probably wont convoy though as I can get there pretty quick through the lanes from Brentwood, it would take me longer to come meet you than just drive there. :)

Its always fun even if you have a slow car, you're not racing anyone else only yourself. Some days even have a prize for slowest run. :D
I've been to loads with mates or just to watch and either had a broken car or not driven so not been able to run (one event wouldn't let me run as it was a Ford day and even though my kit car was Ford based they objected to the Rover V8 despite letting several other fords fitted with Vauxhall redtops run).
Fingers crossed mine has no problems between now and then and i'll be having my first go up the strip.
Its bog stock apart from the MBC and the airbox being opened up a bit so it wont be spectacular, I'm just interested in what it can do and if I can work out how to get it off the line the best way without melting the clutch. :D
Post 503527 by theflyingbrick on 2012-05-26 17:16:09
ill be running mine bog standard aswell,its not a competion just aload of enthusiasts ragging the brown stuff out of their cars :D the first ever run i done was in a 1.1 ohv mk3 escort estate!! it run a 22's but i had shed loads of fun doing it,so auto manual who gives a toss your only running for yourself,so bring it along have a little go and see what happens,you never know it might run well you got nowt to lose ;)

Isn't Thurrock services at jct 30 jtc 28 is Brentwood / Romford but there is a bp station at jct 28 if ya wanna meet there
Post 506640 by theflyingbrick on 2012-06-03 11:21:48
theres also a maccy d's at jct 7 on m11 literally 5 mins from the airfield its the first exit off the roundabout when you come off
Post 506663 by Kingsford G on 2012-06-03 12:56:58
Anywhere anytime,just thought it would b nice to do a few miles in convoy before we get there so at least some ppl on the road would c some nice volvos and know we love them.
Post 506683 by theflyingbrick on 2012-06-03 14:44:11
just giving all available options like shrek said theres not a services at jct 28 just a petrol station,so maybe if people wanted some fuel for their bellys theres a mc d's on m11 or if you want to convoy then maybe thurrock services at jct 30/31 would be ideal?? either im not fussed as im going straight there lol
Post 506689 by jayeastanglia on 2012-06-03 15:01:39
you got birchanger services 15 mins away from north weald always a good place to meet up so you can come in together

You'd think not, but you never know untill you actually put it down the strip.
Its good off the line but doesn't seem that fast untill about 90mph, when it just keeps going and going, so not sure if its suited to the 1/4mile.
We'll find out soon hopefully :biggrin:

Thats what i mean, you'd think one of those would be quicker than that. They are geared for ze autobahns, so not suited for 1/4miles, bet it just keeps going once past 100mph though.

So any update on the weather yet, as has been said previously, if it's wet, and the racing's off, there's not a lot of point going. As Frankie said, it's a long trip for a pub lunch, and as much as I'd like to meet you all, finances don't really allow it.

Your's for bacon butties :D, you'll have to let me know what time you want us there, and your address.
Not sure about the catering arrangements at the track, but we can bring some flasks of hot water along with tea, coffee, sugar and milk if that helps.

Any update on this, as Graham and I will be coming up in convoy, and need to know whether to stop off here, or go straight to the track/strip.
Car's all washed ready for tomorrow, and now it's started raining, typical.
