GazzaG60 0 Posted May 12, 2003 was a good doo. was my first inters n i liked it. met Chris (2CC) on the friday. that was about it. never knew a corsa could carry so much wood either :shock: :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Daz I realised I still had it when I was unpacking I'll probably be down at the weekend so I'll bring it down then mate. It was good meeting up with a few people off the forum, it was an excellent weekend, I was glad to be back in my own bed though last night. I managed to get a few bits and bobs for the car the biggest was a complete polished and ported tsr head with a piper cam and vernier pulley :D ( cheers daz for spotting that one ) I got a few bits of polished alloy for under the bonnet as well so all in all I'm well chuffed.

Nik Patel 0 Posted May 12, 2003 i went only on saturday and thought it was quite good, but ever since they moved out of TRL its never been the same. travelling there took ages!, i thought it would take 1.5 hours to get there but ended up taking 3 hours anyone got the sprint times results? a few trade stands missing such as awesome, premier, also thought there were not many cars on display compared to previous years Also got a few dents sorted out there, the paintless way, i was well impressed, only £30 a panel! bargain! i thought, took out 3 dents on my wing, found out he lives in my area aswell, Harrow, so ill be using them again. Anyone who wants the number let me know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me32dh 0 Posted May 12, 2003 I much prefer the days when they were at TRL. The tyre test circuit was the worst yet. The TRL layout was much bigger. Still, it was the first time I had to race my new VR6 down the 0.25 mile. Last year I still had my old 16V. The result of the first run is attached. 5.99 0-60mph. The second run was ~0.18 sec slower, and I now need a new clutch! Managed to get home, but the next day it was slipping very badly. Regards, Duncan Standard VR6 with Miltek exhaust. (And broken clutch) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LowG 0 Posted May 12, 2003 wow 5.99 sec 0.60mph seems v good man if your vr is stock,were you runing slicks or something? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Majik 0 Posted May 12, 2003 it was a good weekend, bought a steering wheel cowling from jeremy from the corrado club, but it was the wrong one. I haven't seen so many mint corrado's before, how do people keep em in that condition? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe M 0 Posted May 12, 2003 me32dh, nice one, I think thats the fastest standard vr6 times ive seen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted May 12, 2003 never knew a corsa could carry so much wood either :shock: :lol: A red rental Corsa by any chance? Sounds like some of the boys from the ClubGTI forum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pimp 0 Posted May 12, 2003 This was my first one. Only made Sat though. Busy on Sun, had a good time. Would like to meet up with a few people though. Anyone in the Surrey area? Wanted to do the 1/4 mile, didn't get time. Too busy trawling through the goodies looking for anything worth buying. :afro: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Just been hearing that a lot of people thought the 1/4 mile times and 0-60's were very optimistic.........and this is from people that actually ran. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted May 12, 2003 I think the quarter mile timing equipment is Bull**it!! No offence meant but the timing is very optimistic IMHO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banana Man 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Hey dazzy Those wheels look mint very good buy!! I didn't get you pissed you did that all yourself, having not drank for so long it didn't take me long to get pissed on friday night the funny thing is when I had to get out of my tent to get in the car in the middle of the night coz I was so cold took me about half an hour to work out how to get out :D I was sitting there trying to fight my way through the flysheet coz I couldn't get out!! LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Gazza I saw the corsa in the corner it was a rental car with stuff written down the side wasn't it. That bloody fire caused me loads of grief I woke up on sunday morning to a car with loads of dew and ash all over not to mention the dust from entering the campsite I had to wash the car 3 times over the weekend :D You should have come over I didn't know you were around!!!

dazzyvr6 0 Posted May 12, 2003 it was the easy jet rental car,think the lads came over from ireland in it,the ash from the fire was a pain,good job we had a use of a bucket when we got to the show ground Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted May 12, 2003 It ended up being a comunal bucket didn't it me you and daz used it in the end!! It was a bloody long way to get the water though next year they should put the club cars nearer the water supply instead of the auto jumble being so close to it.
