Goddamn, that was a tad chilly and damp tonight!

Superb meet though, great turnout. Thanks once again to Stu, Dunc, Ben, and all the other Team I've forgotten, and to the folks at Snetterton also. The floodlights in the car park were inspired - but can we get some patio heaters and marquees for next time as well? :wink: :lol:

Got to talk to a few more people tonight as well - nice to meet you Alex, see you and the Supra on the A14 at some point no doubt! :grin:

Yeah it certainly was cold, it was even starting to get cold through the Big Power Fleece (cheers Stu and Dunk).

Great evening, met a load more people and can put faces to names.

A load of awesome cars there and such a range even though mine was the 'only Rex in the village' !!!

Lights were good, bit bright though and showed up every bit of dirt/dust/paint swirl/scratch/scuff/fingerprint/dent/dodgy paint match on my car lol

One thing I wont forget.......how big a Dodge Ram is !!!!!!!!!!! Feckin Huge !!!! But cool.

See you guys at the next one.

Cracking meet again :) Made all the better for the great lighting :) Nice one team :thumb:

It was good to chat to a few new faces, I had even less chance of getting around and saying hello to everyone.....

No pics this time as I just got the camera out when it started to rain.

Ive just woken up !!!

Think I have gassed myself something rotten !!! My heads throbbing and Ive been asleep since about 8pm when I phoned Stu up to say I couldnt make it. I got to Bury St Edmunds and was just feeling so bad i had to turn round !!! lol That'll teach me to drive the car with such a badly cracked manifold !!! Trouble is I couldnt just open the windows to let fresh air in as the car has no interior and isnt sealed totally, so it just draws even more exhaust fumes forward from the back end !!!

Still - Karen got to have a nice trundle in the Porsche so I guess its not all bad, although in a way its maybe a good thing I didnt make it, as to be honest the Orange is way beyond dangerous in this sort of weather - virtually no headlights, windscreen wipers dont really do much, no washers and it was sideways onto the A12, sideways off the A12, sideways round the roundabout above the A12 and then weaving all over the road on the backroads to my house !!! And that was before Carbon Monoxide poisoning !!!

I reckon I will pop along on the dyno day to say hello though, so that should be good.

Hope you all had fun tonight, look forward to seeing the photos

Cheers,

J.

Another cracking meet guys, had a really good night.Sorry I had to pop off early, the MADMONK had to drop the Rangey off at the farm and needed picking up :lol:

Hope the headache has gone J and I guess I will have to wait a little longer to see the Orange.Hope it all goes well.

Once again, another good night

A great meet again guys. Even though it started to rain I don't think it dampened spirits too much. A supurb turnout and what an aray of cars. I met a few more people and even got to get the R34 GTR rc car out for a little blast before it rained :D:D

May be needing the gloves for the december meet tho :D:D

Thanks to everyone that organised and helped make this a great meet once again.

Well what can I say - best meet so far. As mentioned - COLD - but I had my Bigpower Hat so that helped.

Good to meet all those I had a chance to chat too, thanks to Snetterton for the lighting much appreciated, and what an array of cars.

And really I suppose a thanks to all of you guys and gals for turning up - 58 cars I beleive ... :thumb:

Excellent turn out - especially considering it was cold, rainy and windy !! Very much looking forward to warmer evenings where the turn out will be even better and I will be able to hold a pint glass without it shaking in my hand from the cold :D

Well done everyone !!
