Pelles Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 (edited) Firstly, Sack Ric for his time keeping, i could have ideally got 2 to 3 extra hours of sleep!!! lol We even beat the burger van to the event! And what can i say about Scuba Matt! The highlight of the day....drove from london to be stranded with an escort whos clutch burned out. As i remember, i was wandering about having a wee look to find out where Matt and Ric had disappeared to, 30 mins after i last seen them i hadn't got a clue, with jokes coming from my mate "i bet they've crashed at the bottom of the 1/4" was just a joke, so nothing was taken serious until i seen the van towing matt back without a front bumper, for a few split seconds i thought his front was mashed, but unlucky for him, his clutch didn't like the lovely scottish conditions....so all those english out there with pu$$y clutches, beware! It wasn't a big event, Crails normally 10X busier, but unfortunatley 2 big events where hosted on one day that wasn't taken into consideration! Ill let the pics do the rest of the talking! They got at it 3 or 4 times, have a break then do it again.... Ill let the images/vids tell the rest of the story.

Waxmonkey Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 does look like an action packed day out - you were lucky you got there early otherwise you might never have got a place to park. aye, we get birds like that at our cruises - it's just that the Scottish accent is sexier on a bird than a Welsh accent. lol. anyway, I see McRic's name on 'ere now so tell us what happened to Matthew of Scuba diving variety. Do you have to pay him compo as his car got damaged in Evo time?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambo Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 Good photos mate, shame about the turn out Oh well, next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRic Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 A quality day out for bein a shocker, got there and there was no-one there making us believe it was actually closed! A big Thanks to Scuba Matt for adding some adventure to the day by successfully burning out his clutch thats after Kapp_Tan wound down my rear window and it wouldn't go back up again,and now a few words from the star of the day, here he is the one and only Clutch Killer!!!!!!! Firstly a big thanks to everyone who helped me today Burnt the clutch out put my friend on a train home and now I'm staying the night at rich's place . Good news though by 5:30 the car had been towed to Big John's house who had it stripped in record time installed new clutch and tested it. So again an enormous thank you to the whole of the Scottish Evo Branch any bets on what's gona happen in Southend next weekend? back to rich... just gonna sort the pics comin soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 An eventful day lads! Biggups to everyone who turned up, especially Scuba - gotta be top of the table for "person who travelled furthest" I reckon! Cars gettin there matey, its gonna be lovely when its finished (you know how I like my cabs ) How many runs did you get down the strip before the clutch went? A fine collection of Evo motors methinks Jordan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
