It’s time for a meet. The plan is to attend xtreme karting in Falkirk for a mini grand prix on Sunday the 24th Feb. Details of the race style are available on the link below. http://www.xtremekarting.co.uk/SmallerGroups.stmLook to meet about 11 o’clock, have a chat and kick some tyres for a little bit, then go karting. Then find somewhere to grab a bit to eat. I thought possibly the Falkirk Wheel might be a good place to gather afterwards but don’t know the area at all. We’ll need somewhere in the region of 10 -12 people to make it a go-er. Obviously forum members, but feel free to invite others; friends/girlfriends/whatever. Basing, for the moment, prices as quoted on the website (so best part of £40) although I will try and negotiate a discount once I know there is sufficient interest. It’ll probably involve providing a deposit at the time of booking so be prepared to hand over some cash to confirm your place.

I definately cant make that date, as i work every sunday and i already have the 17th and 2nd march off. So getting the 24th off would be impossible.

Ok, so far I have:
mattB Baz76 daz fiat131turbo Kelv27
Confirmed as intersted, which isn't enough. So either we need another few confirmed attendees in the next few days or I'll look at changing the date for this. I'm just a bit weary of it slipping as it'll get close to the Big Meet and there's some Crail dates in the mix there somewhere too.

Ok, I think perhaps I was a bit ambitious in the timescale for organising this. I’ll put it on hold for the moment and maybe we can go karting some time between the Big Coupe Meet and the SICD, probably on a Saturday by the looks of things. In the mean time, I’d still be up for a meet/drive/lunch on the 24th. Happy to head down to the Central Belt if one of the guys around there wants to suggest a location or intended route? Perhaps head up the West Coast a little bit, something like that?

I have no objection to changing it and have a meet on the Saturday, but it depends on what others want to do.

P.S. anyone think a trip in around stirling would be a good idea? Allow the aberdeen boys and dundee boys a break? Or what about a meal in perth/dundee? Ross p.s. the road to oban is a beasting good road and some good places to eat in Oban

I'm just a bit weary of it slipping as it'll get close to the Big Meet and there's some Crail dates in the mix there somewhere too. Ok, looking to this weekend we’ll keep the day as Sunday so as not to disappoint anyone who was previously in for this meet. Somewhere central as a meeting location but it’d be good if someone from that area would like to suggest where (we could go for the Falkirk wheel or somewhere like that if you want) and probably a route for a little drive.

We’re not going karting but I would like to have a meet. I’m heading down to deliver a set of wheels to Baz in any case, but might as well make it a worthwhile trip…
Karting I'll look to get organised in the next couple of months.

My favourite is the road round Kilmarnock! I think I can safely assume that your not a big fan of Kilmarnock then lol . Like Kelv i`ve not that much knowledge of up past Glasgow/Edinburgh (if that`s the area were looking at going to anyway) but i`m happy to go pretty much anywhere . Baz

How far is it from, say Ross' flat to yours Baz? Extra half hour on the motorway doesn't bother me much. As long as there's a few good roads at the end of it . And maybe something to eat....

It`s about 47 miles from Ross`s place to mine going via Ross`s favourite road (B740) which takes around an hour. There`s not really much down my way TBH,i`m usually looking forward to getting away from the place lol . Baz

Why don't you head towards loch lomond and duck bay and further to this nice wee pub serves food and Im sure there is a place across the road. There is also Arduli on the way there. In my younger days I used to take the ladies to the drovers, cost a bit in petrol but boy was it worth it Hope you guys enjoy yourselves

I will be organising karting for a different date. Probably try and space it for between the Big Coupe meet and the SICD, so at the beginning of May.

Whats wrong with having 4 guys anyway? Baz is coming? If you pull out then it leaves just the 3 of us which is worse! Don't think Matt will want to travel all the way from up North if that is the case thats what i mean why not just go some where more central

I'm delivering a set of wheels to Baz anyway so I'm making the journey. If no-one wants a meet, it doesn't matter. Maybe I'll just go for a run round loch lomond on my own.

Yup,had an excellent day . The weather stayed ok with just the occasional downpour but they were over pretty quickly. The road was great fun,a real roller coaster affair lol and the food was very tasty,looking forward to the next stop-off there again . Highlight of the day was the wee surprise karting session though (my fastest 0:41.36 I think I was the slowest of the group ,but then it was very slippy ) need to get back there on a dry day and try and topple Kelv`s crown . Thanks again Matt for taking the trouble to come down as far with the wheels too ,looking forward to the next meet up guys . Baz

As always folks, it was a pleasure to meet up with you again. I had a good day out, despite the reasonably long drive. There’s some cracking roads over on the West coast. Admittedly some of them were a bit too small and roller-coastery for my liking (particularly when you see a 306 take off over the crest of a hill heading towards you ) but there were also some really good driving roads. In fact, the way I can home along the A85/A84 was a really good road.

About time ! I haven't been to bed yet ! LOL ( only joking ...) Good pics Kelv , but I'm sure it was all Siti's handywork Never realised we were under surveillance from you flat either What kind of camera were they taken on Kelv ? seem very bright and clear compared to mine, my camera is meant to be 10 mega pix

Yeap its all Siti's work I didn't know we were under surveillance as well! Its a compact Lumix camera that she just got. Its 12 mega pixels..so you've been beaten by 2 . Its not the megapixel that gives clarity..Its the lense and CCD that does all the work. I've got a Nikon DSLR which is only about 6 megapixels but its as clear if not clearer. Megapixels mean nothing if you're not producing big prints.

I had a look at that montrose place too. They do practice sessions akin to what we did on Sunday where you just turn up and £20 for 45 laps (probably 25 minutes or so). TD and Matty both seem quite interested and you only need about 6 people. Also, can you email me that picture in a decent resolution of the coupe's infront of yon big boat?. Ta.

Aye Daz was kicking himself for missing out on the karting ,he`s looking forward to taking on Kelv the next time we go. Incidentally did you see the wine red Delta flying down the opposite side of the DC on our way out of Glasgow(I think!). I`m sure it was Daz`s mates,he`s going to check with him as he`s bound to have noticed the convoy of 3 Coops . Baz
