Hoping I'm going to be ok for this, my new main bearings will be going in tonight/tomorrow night. Not keen on having such a long journey on fresh internals. :-k [-o<

Hi peeps,

As Dave says, get your polish out, as I'll be bringing the J-Tuner camera with me! (Don't know how to use it like, but as long as it's got autofocus, I'll be okay).

See you Sunday :D

If its just bearings chap then you dont need to bed them in - should be fine from the word go. Rings on the other hand are a different matter.

Fingers crossed I get the reg for the AE86 on Friday so I can join the fun! Might even wash it! :mrgreen:

Cheers James, the rings have had about a thousand miles without issue. Will probably give the engine a flush through with cheap oil first, then put some decent stuff in. Be nice to drive her again. 8)

just a suggestion gaz, but there is a stock car track near cheddar, about 19 miles from bristol, it is a big meet with bangers etc etc, starts at half 1 till about 5.

you said about going to a pub etc etc, why not the stock cars, nice spiritid convoy dowh there, i assume plenty of parkin, good day out and should sell beer too.

like i say mate just a suggestion, dont wanna tread on toes.

Yeah maybe if less car dude but like james said 60+ cars it would be a treck.

If nobody has any other ideas then Im gonna go with James's recomendation of the Boat House on the outskirts of Bath, went down there the other day and its perfect with a big park and ride next to it for us all to park up.Just gonna head around the ring road to bath.

Ill post a map and postcodes up tomorrow and im printing plenty of maps off to hand out at cribbs just to be on the safe side.

James would you and a couple other locals be ok to dot yourselves around this massive convoy just incase it gets split up?

Yeah shouldnt be a problem. Hopefully if the Ae86 is legal then they will just need to go in the direction of all the noise :mrgreen:

Looking forward to this meet, haven't been to one in ages. Weather forecasts vary for tomorrow but looks like it should be dry until later in the day.

Ok dudes this is still on the pub is expecting us the parkings all sorted all I ask is that everyone has enough fuel to get to Bath and back, if you need fuel when you get to cribbs what ill do is about 30mins before we head to Bath (when im handing out the maps with directions) ill ask if anyone needs fuel then take you guys to the shell garage(sells optimax), its only about a mile away.

See everyone tomorrow. :D
