As title says guys the Scottish meeting will next be on the 23rd of April. As the previous poll only received 5 votes total with 3 of them being from Dundee. Its a pretty obvious meeting location (although I would have liked to get out of Dundee and visit some other places).

 

I have came up with a plan of action:

 

12:00 Meet at Dundee Airport Car Park. Usual chatting, looking at each others cars and pictures taken. Good spot for this. Easy to find, if heading from Perth to Dundee, take right at roundabout on entrance to Dundee. Carry all the way along this road and you cant miss it on the right hand side near River Tay.

 

14:00-14:30 Convoy tour around Dundee. I have prepared a little schedule though and around Dundee. I was wanting to take everyone to the likes of Unicorn and Discovery but speed bumps wont suit all. We will drive past them though. In total it should only be about 10 miles (I will check this next time I am home) and 45 mins taking it easy. There will be no bad roads for low cars as I know the roads pretty well from having a stupidly kitted out Fiat.

 

15:15ish Arrive at Camperdown Retail Park where we could have the choice of the following food:

 

- Weavers Mill, buy one get one meal all day long (full menu). Good food, lots of choice and cheap.

- Ashoka Shak, indian food always promoting deals. Apparently nice but never been in.

- McDonalds and KFC, no intro necessary :rolleyes:

 

What does everyone think of the plan? It is still flexible so if anyone wants to change any of it let me know. I dont mind whichever way we do it for food, we could all sit together in any of the places or get takeaways from one of the 2 fastfood retailers. Or another option is to go to Kinsway West Retail park where the choice is Burger King or Pizza Hut.

 

Common everyone post your name down, look forward to seeing everyone.

The weather will absolutely brilliant today. Seen 6 Zs in total all from the forum. I managed to get a 14.4 on the 1/4 mile with almost standard car. Quite surprised by how addictive the track is!

 

Next on the list ALC for the auto box and I should get into the 13s.

seems like a good time dave considering it's standard etc.. best i could manage was constant 13.6's and a 13.7 so you should do alright with a few mods i reckon.

 

Weather was good had a good drive up and back, all 240 miles or so lol.

Sounds like a good day, weather was good and I`m stuck in work. anybody take any pics?

No bother m8, she enjoyed it until they started getting hyper and running riots.

 

Brett, sorry I should have phoned you. How is the new house? I have an offer in for another house in Dundee just now. Buying houses is tricky.

Great day out, only got one pic (forgot to charge the camera dohhh :headvswal ).

 

Looks like my clutch is on the way out :rant: :rant:

 

Will be taking the skyline up in a fortnight to the Max Power day to see if i can flog it.

At least it just showed the start line on that one.

 

I managed a 14.4 on that run and Kev must have got something like 13.7, about 2 cars lengths by the end I think.

Would be interesting to see if dumping all the extra weight would make any diff .. e.g passenger, Space saver and tools

Look Craig your not that fat. :nana2:

 

I removed the spare wheel the day before. But in its place, I put my tool kit (very handy at race days), 2 big amps and 2 large sub boxes.

 

The only mod that is getting done to performance side of things now is the HKS ALC, which should hopefully do a good job for 1/4 mile track. I noticed at the end, I should have been at just over 100 but since the last gear change took so long it slowed me down a wee bit.

 

Not too fussed about the weight really either. I am the same as you craig, why lose all the comforts.
