optim8 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I've been a member on here for a couple of years now, and I can't fault the technical expertise of some of the guys on here. I've been a petrolhead for many years and absolutely love the whole experience of having my car and being part of this community. My question though is other than the main events like JapFest etc.. how often do you meet up with fellow members to actually do drive outs? I know there are regional meet ups and they're great but these generally are about meeting in one place, having a chat, drink and a tyre kick. The reason I ask is I love driving my car but think I would like it even more if I was involved in regularly meets which were more focused at actually driving. When I had my TVR my local club would once a month do a drive out which would involve meeting at a designated point before doing about an hours driving together arriving at a pub somewhere for lunch/drinks. Do any of you guys already do this? Anyone around the South West (I'm in Bristol) fancy doing something like this at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I think there used to be a regular meet around cribbs causeway but not been to any local meets myself since having the car but would be good to get something going as there doesn't seem to be much going on in our neck of the woods, maybe a run through Avon Gorge or something.

DodgyRog Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 We used to meet up very regular down Devon and Cornwall, but last year it slacked off I think it was due to economics and time, most of us down here have had our cars off the road for builds or doing extra work to pay the bills, it's unfortunate as we have a really good group down here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it would be good to sort something out, Gorge is good for blast as well, perhaps Chedder Gorge would be even better!! :-) I'll wait and see if anyone else responds to this thread and I'll post something up in the Regional Forum.
