Weston Super Mare meet : Sunday 27th January 7pm

Just thought I would start a clean thread for the meet already discussed elsewhere.

Location: The small retail park on the intersection of Herlium Way and Winterstoke road.

Postcode: BS23 3WL

Time: 7pm
Date: 27th January 2008

Food / Refreshments
If people want to eat, some of us are probably going into pizza hut at 8pm to do so, but we can decide on the night whats going on
There is also a KFC and a McDonalds on site


Entertainment:

Mainly "chav spotting" which is a great way to feel superior and important, you stand around in a big group laughing at the little chavs with their mahoosive spoilered saxos etc

There also tends to be a bit of impromtu racing up and down the dual carriageway that can be spectated from the raised section next to mcdonalds, obviously this racing is completely illegal and MIG members are requested not to participate

If people are bored, there are a few decent pubs in the surrounding area that potentially we could go for a "drive out" to instead



Small print: Please be aware this is an existing established monthly car meet that happens the last sunday of every month at this location, its NOT a "mig event" or in anyway sanctioned by MIG or covered by MIG's insurance etc, Im merely notifying people of something that is already happening, Im not in anyway part of the organisation of the event so queries should not be directed to me or MIG, just turn up and see if you want to stay or not.

Plenty of old RWD Escorts, the odd 6R4 and cossie WRC, evo's, scobbies, and last year a solitary GTE (wohooo!) were amongst the competitors! Well worth it think its about £15 a car to get in.

larger rolling radius and sticky tyres means harder to spin i thought.

With the right suspension geometry and damping you would be right, hence touring cars.

On a standard car, no chance, lol
