Spotted this a while ago and providing I can get permission from the boss, I'll be popping over for a look. It's mainly fast Fords but there's loads of tuned motors of all marques - apart from Volvos. It runs from 7:30pm to about 10-ish but I won't be there till about 8:30 due to work. Anybody fancy propping up the Volvo numbers?
If I'm allowed out I may well pop along to this.
I can't make it mate but I bet it will be interesting.... Just behave yourself! :smile:
Me behave? Jog on. I'll be lurking with a pocket full of "powered by Volvo" stickers to slap on the STs and RSs :shifty:
bump! I know it's short notice but it should be pretty good :D
Just spoke to Sarkey San, he's up for it.
I'm up for having a look
Depends on the time I get back tomorrow and what I'm doing Thursday but would love to go if I can :) (Wonder if I still have my baseball cap and baggy jeans.....) Edit.....wondering if the Focus would be more apt.....also would we be the eldest people there?

Although I have a few hours today to wipe the car down, I won't get away from work till about 7:30pm so save me a slot please guys, I'll be there as quick as I can :D Google says 1 hour 8 minutes. I think it's wrong tbh. ;)
An hour sounds about right that time of the day... Is it wrong to start up my grinder at 07:45??
If you get there around 8.30ish it will be dark lol.

I can't do this months one (tonight) :(
This caught my attention from the last one :D
yea. saw that. fancy sticking a turbo lump in a roller skate - mental!
I mite pop along to this but depends how I feel after work, I think "he who should not be named" is also going.
Ah poo, I'm not looking good for this guy's, Anne has had a problem with her back for a couple of days now and has got an appointment with the Ostopat, I mean Ostropat......er, back person tonight, it's not till 1830 though :frown:
drop her off and let her get the bus back :)
Cars been cleaned :) will make my way they at 7:30 once I`ve fueled up :)
Sorry, just out the Osteopaths with Anne, she's fine just a bit sore from the pulling about, gonna have a quiet night tonight, see you tomorrow/Friday/Sunday.
.....can't believe I'm missing this meet to rub the Mrs's sacrum !
good meet tonight, I think I missed a fair bit but there was some mad cars there. the Ford KA pictured above has 280bhp and a huge bottle of giggle gas in the back! pics in a bit...
Good to go to something different. Thanks to Smithy, we have a theory on the oil leak. It shouldn't take too long to sort out. Turbo return pipe didn't have two o-rings fitted..
What engines in the ka Martin? Looks a good meet that.
2 o rings? one at each end? I told you it was o ring related lol (ok not in the way I was saying but you get the idea:))

[QUOTE=M-R-P;641526]2.0L zetec from a Mondeo. Striped out, huge Nos tank in the boot lol we were told it "scrabbles about a bit" lol[/QUOTE] I can imagine it does. Lol It looks as if it was shoe horned in!
[QUOTE=Biff;641527]I can imagine it does. Lol It looks as if it was shoe horned in![/QUOTE] It's got a charge cooler 'cos there's no room for an intercooler lol. It's proper rapid tho.

I hope that's all it is. Still, 'twas nice to see the T4 out and about again, sounds nice too. I thought it was a bit crap that nobody wandered over to look at the volvos but it was getting past their bed time :)

Think I'll wait till its a bit more modded till I go scare our local kids at a meet. Lol
It's just one if those things, without the hype a Volvo will always get overlooked..
Managed to get a few snaps before leaving. (To be honest I don't really remember much............what was your friends name again Sharkey?)
