Two Rivers Car Park 27.08.15
« on: August 25, 2015, 10:09:46 PM »

Evening all

Already posted around many threads but I'm down in Staines on Thursday with the family and would love to hook up with as many as possible for a nando's and a bit of banter!

The venue's Two Rivers Car Park, Staines, TW18 4WB at 20.00.

Already confirmed are -

Wangswong (Karl)
Cecil
CrazyG (I'm led to believe)

So come one, come all. A rare opportunity for me to meet you all so it would be great to hook up if you can spare the time.

I also have time on Saturday 29th am if anyone has time then.

Regards, Karl / Wangswong

Not sure I can make it fa the Thursday.... :'(
I'll be off at 10am to Donnigton with Rob of S2smarts, as we are
taking the S2smarts racing Brabus for a track test shakedown.
(the last round of the Classic car Club is at Donnington on
   Sunday 6th Sept)

So I can't guarantee I'll be back in time...but I'll do my best.
Otherwise I'll see you Saturday morning.
(Time ? same place ? ..or in the McD's  at the 2 Rivers fa breakfast ?)

Or maybe I'll make both.....!  have to see how it goes on Thursday

Can do Saturday morning too. Unsure what state I'll be in though! Also unsure of a time. Can keep in contact on here to sort the arrangements out.

No worries.
I was going to bring the turbo down but I'll wait until we get back and sort something  with postage etc.

The lad is so impatient....I said he could have mine, or even
the spare one I have....once I'd done the 'necessary' on mine.

Were here. Parked up opposite Curry's PCWorld. Would it be best to hook up there because I think I'm locked in with parking until the morning..... this is all new to me!

Lovely meet earlier. Managed to meet Cecil and CrazyG. Good to meet nice people with as much enthusiasm about their smarts as I have for mine!
Envious of the torque G has in the diesel but give it some time and hopefully mine should be on par!
Pics are being a swine to upload so only two for now -

Thanks for editing the registration plates. Forgot about that.

Update on the road trip.
The brab didn't falter once. Joy to drive over the vast distance.
Fuel wise, we managed 41.8mpg worked out via tanking her up and dividing fuel added by actual mileage. The trip computer stated 42.2 so not far away.
In it's current state of tune, I think that's quite impressive.

That is a good mpg figure.....
What do you reckon your average speed was ?

It was good seeing/meeting with you..shame others didn't make
it...but one has to allow for it being the Bank Holiday and it also
being the time of year for family holidays with kids off school.
Maybe we'll meet again sometime... perhaps if/when the
S2 Racing Brab travels North for a round in the Classic Car series
next year. (this season is over bar 1 last race at Donnigton on 6th Sep.)

Hopefully it will be before then as she really needs mapped sharpish.
As always, life and finances dictate but hopefully I can get down there to get her sorted.

Average speed wise, I'll check in the morning.
