  1. He all, One of the women who works in my office regularly organises motorbike track days in france. Shes done many a bike day and decided, after chatting cars with me one afternoon, that she'd look into arranging a supra track day. She asked me to mention it and see what kind of interest you guys might have. The trip would involve (and include) around 25 cars travelling up on a friday night, ferry across the channel. Overnight stay on friday night near the track and a full days racing followed by a good nights drinking and another stay. The trip would cost in the region of £220 - £250 and includes; Open pit lane Both ferry crossings Exclusive use of the track for the whole day Personal photographer 2 nights accomodation (bed and breakfast) Guided group convoy to and from the ferry. The track is surrounded by thick woodland in a picturesque village in northern france an hour and a half from Calais. Facilities on site include sole use of a 120m glass tower overlooking the track, reasonably priced refreshments and food are available throughout the day from the bar. From her brochure- "The track surface is smooth and grippy and covers more than 2km with a constant length of 920m (the straight). Long straight lines, rapid curves and a hair pin bend make it both easy to learn but still technical and varied enough for those looking for a challenge or repeat trips" Chances are this would be likely to happen next year but could happen sooner depending on the level of interest. Ive started a list below, no commitment, just wanna guage interest. I dont wanna know for definite if you are coming etc just if you would be interested etc. So what do you reckon chaps? Anyone up for it? 1. Marktheboy 2. 3. 4. 5. Cheers Oh one point to mention is they have a noise limit of 98db... might be a problem for some on here (like me) but if, like me you have remavable baffles, you will probably need em.
  2. Im going up on the thursday night for the whole weekend. I'll keep my eyes open for you guys... You all running up the strip?
  3. Well i cant have you buying a sh#tter now can i? Besides... someone gotta show you how to drive it
  4. Make sure that if you're even slightly excited about seeing it, make sure you go to the cinema to do so. I dont care how big your tv is or how awesome your surround sound is it wont do it as much justice as the cinema!
  5. You hunky bas#ard! lol Looks like one of those gaychat adverts haha
  6. Adam (groom on left) & Me (best man on right) [ATTACH]61500[/ATTACH] Me, Paul and Dom (drunk) [ATTACH]61501[/ATTACH] Rich and Me... Heroes night at our local (oh yeah... drunk again ) [ATTACH]61502[/ATTACH]
  7. I use windows movie maker, pretty easy to use and comes with lots of cool (but simple) features. Lots of guys on here use it
  8. I saw it last sunday, really enjoyed it... few plot holes and confusing looking fight scenes aside it was really good. Just wish they had made the robots less confusing looking, sometimes it was really tricky to see what was going on and who was whupping who. The bots in the citroen ads look better in my opinion... Worst thing was having to sit through about 10 mins of bloody renault adverts back to back before the trailers!
  9. You lot are all gonna call me gay but I really like the new VXR range, my mate has just got a Astra VXR as a company car and for a 2.0 Turbo it doesn't mess about. Its gotta be the quickest in its class and it looks great too (imho of course) Vauxhall have come on leaps and bounds in the last few years... apart from the corsa of course, which i still think is just an overdressed nova. *ducks and awaits the caning*
  10. I live in Great Leighs but im a Chelmsford boy at heart Not sure but i must have seen you about!
  11. I saw you there last year... came to say hi and you completely f'kin brushed me off... Be good to see you and your monster there Markyboy, come and have a beer!
  12. The skids are still there but faded now... bet his havent though
  13. Its the only way i can motivate myself to do it too, talking each other up to it... Also if ones not in the mood the other can kinda 'gee' them up a bit. Also its cool if your at a similar level so one of you doesnt feel left behind by the other, like me and my mate... we're both well unfit
  14. Yeah... i'll end up roped into this one I reckon... might have to borrow your car though Darryl
  15. Hey all... Selling my spare boot carpet on the old' bay Link below http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-Supra-Mk-4-93-02-Genuine-Black-Boot-Carpet_W0QQitemZ260141557115QQihZ016QQcategoryZ10428QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Cheers
  16. Did mine ages ago... but no one comes and says hi Bad picture but redrew and cut a whole new logo Prefer it in blue and black too
  17. Thats what i thought... hence the stolen/running from something thought... Who ever it was lost about 5000 miles off those tyres!! LOL
  18. If you're coming from the M25 and heading into crews hill his workshops behind the first gardencentre on the left (theres bloody loads of them on that road so dont get confused) JAE's in Swansea, see you there
  19. No its been 30mph for about twenty years, through the village... 70 was being kind incase it was a member... tbh judging by the rubber left on the road and the sound it made i'd say three figures was more likely
  20. Dance tent, fair ground, dancing girls, poledancers, arcades, bars, loads of cars to look at, flame competitions, drifting, terry grant... you wont get bored Look us up when you're there... come say hi
  21. Ive been four years on the trot... wouldnt miss it. It can get a bit chavvy but if you go as a group you cant fail to have a good time imho. Never heard about the stabbing last year! The racings not like a regular RWYB, you pay your fifteen notes and get a wristband which gives you three runs. Got all nine in over the three days and never Q'd for more than 20 mins the whole time. Girls are great too
  22. Bit of a mystery... prob not a member then Oh well, thought id do my 'shout it loud' bit just in case it was some chavver with sticky fingers
