tDR Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 I think the Scottish translation to that is "man up, ladies!" Its going to be very close but we'll damm well make it. well i hope we will. Cheers G You've always talked a good game G! In fact if you do finally make it and compete, I'll even cook for you! How's that for an incentive?!? What way are you going on the race fuel dude / Matt? Unleaded for easyness or super high octane leaded? I personally like the Sunoco GT+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruggs Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Sunoco MaxNos 116;) I've gone with the Sunoco stuff as well. Think its only the GT+ though...only 109octane. Its sat down the garage anyways. Getting all excited! G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 MaxNos is designed for High cylinder pressure and is more suitable for turbo cars and cheaper than the 118 by quite a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Dude, the hotel we ended up always using (after Crossroads motel the first year) was the Travelinn at Goole. I would try to book in there if you need a hotel for you and the crew. Before I go and book the wrong hotel for the saturday night piss up last minute team briefing, is this the right one ? http://www.premierinn.com/pti/pTiibsRedirect.do?INNID=GOOGOO&iscsell=true Is that where most competitors stay ?

Competitors scatter themselves around hotels. That was the hotel we always used when a crowd of us went up. Have not used it for a year or two now as the usual crowd sort of drifted apart. Its a fairly good Travelinn, but book your cab to the town and your restaurant early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 and Chris Mann tells me we have 2 competitors signed up for mkivsupra.net, is that correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers G I went for this offer: Just got a good hotel offer through from Premier Inn: 2 Nights For £29 / Night if you book 21 days in advance I'm gonna stay Friday 24th & Saturday 25th July at the Castleford (M62, Jct 31) Premier Inn because it's one of the closest to TOTB included in the offer at only 32 miles away and is one junction away from Castleford Xscape so gonna spend time skiing / eating / drinking there on the Saturday after travelling down Friday evening after work... travel across to TOTB Sunday morning earlyish and head up the road straight after.

tDR Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 Final Team List (confirmed): 1. [CIRCUIT] [10's] Dude (Trial Demo Car, 6spd. Adequate!!!!) 2. [No idea] Gruggs (BL71DBB / BL box) 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. --- Thanks for getting your entries in guys - the rest of you are a bunch of pussies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'm a bit down on numbers this year too, 6 cars in the team and 1 bonus entry that's not an MR2 - should have a bit of space in the pit garage, tools etc if anyone needs anything, feel free to pitch up next to us in the pits if you can cope with being down the busy end (my lot prefer that). Looks like there are still a lot of interesting cars signed up but the noise restrictions have been the killer for me really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruggs Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'm getting all tingly! Looks like i just got cleared to be off from Wednesday of next week right through to event. So i'm going to sit and polish my "purple monster" for about 10 days....can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruggs Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 looks like its us two i think. Did you get your hotel sorted? which one did you go for? Cheers G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 That's it ????? Yep We had a reasonable list of potential entrants but only 2 with follow through... It would seem most Supra owners like to have cars with lots of power but not really use them just like big turbos to polish Sounds good Michael - we'll pitch up beside you guys with our square marquee we used last time, keep us a space if you're there first! Anyone reading this club official wise have banners etc. they can bring to the event? Cheers, Brian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tDR Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Got some rear Mickey T DR's for the straight line stuff too? Worth a tenth or two in the 60ft at Elvington which translates to 3 - 6 tenths over the quarter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
