TREG Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Cant see any mention of this on the GTR forum?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 If this was racing on the public roads I doubt the Skyline owners club would (quite rightfully) be very supportive of it. If it was on private roads then fair enough, but I can't find a thread on the Skyline forum either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURT Posted October 17, 2005 Author Share Posted October 17, 2005 wwe were not racing!!! it was showing !!.i dont know how to put up a link. http://www.skylineowners.com.................southeast meet by roadrunner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 oh right, never seen that club before. I thought the only significant skyline OC was http://www.gtr.co.uk Edit: Here's the correct link: http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32571&page=1&pp=15 To be fair, most of the cars listed there were cannon fodder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BURT Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 make you right, they were very hospitable and was a good day, perhaps we could do a joint event for the 2 clubs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 That could be fun Unusual to see such hospitality between what some might deem rivals, I guess it was based on much "mutal respect" not sure that would be the case between all car clubs, a refreshing change!

klump Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Why would you vote for a R34 over a supe do you want one ??? No racing done at all on the day - nothing even to match the few blasts we had on our own Gumball All the peeps were very friendly and had a good chat with most of them, oh and if you are wondering why i was there - i was sitting next to Burt for most of the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Think I'd still pick a supe over any of the 'liners - oh wait I did Still the R34 is the best of a bad looking bunch IMHO - lucky they have performance otherwise they would only make good taxi's.
