Macclesfield Meet - Saturday

Recommended Posts

Hey ladies and gents, not a gt owner but I saw you lot yest on the Silk Road, I was driving a silver type R ;), was gonna follow for abit but needed fuel so turned around. Lovely looking motors, i test drove one from rrg as iv had a lot of mr2s but the price was a little high for me and the new type r got announced around the same time. Hope u all had run loads of great roads around Macc and some nice places to eat aswell.

Ah, thanks for that, it's always nice to be noticed! Pity you were low on fuel, our destination was a loop up the A54 Bosley to the top and then down the Cat and Fiddle. Great day for it! :)

Ah, Mark, you so should have done. Was hoping to catch up with you guys, but my beauty sleep and the need for a big brekkie (oatcakes no less!) meant I didn't get there until after you'd gone. Was a great day to be out, have a bit of a blast in places, just enjoying the car then a onto a nice little natter at the Cat & Fiddle. Not a bad Sunday. :)

Great pics will (courtesy of Phil if you reading this :32 (17):). It was a pretty good blast on both days.Narnie, glad you found us, you were following me very closely and saw you bezz past, hovered next to Jay (in the red one) rev'd engine a couple of times and then darted off in a different direction, shame you couldn't have joined us....but I think we had just finished our run at that time I think (can't remember now.....weekend has become a blur already :32 (18):) Get yourself another test drive some time and take it around "Lauren Triangle", you'll love it even more, I wasn't wowed by my test drive to be fair, but the car and rapidly grown on me and love it big time now!Sorry to hear the rest of the day didn't go so well Mark, you should have really stayed, was a good run.....though after we left the Cat & Fiddle, the roads back were blocked with ambulances as there was probably a pretty bad crash or something.....did the rest of you guys get back alright?

Mmmm oatcakes:...............I saw you all go to the cat in Keiths vid I would have loved that. Is it right you can't make the UK meet? BTW You can always pop in for a cuppa when you're near by' date=' just give us a call to make sure we're in[/quote']Well, with regard to the UK meet I'd rather go to Spa if I possibly can. We'll see. Cheers, Mark. Funnily enough, I'm moving teams in a month's time, so I will be back to covering Blythe Bridge and Werrington, so not far from you. You never know I may just pop in.

Hope all that had cameras fitted are happy and didn't reverse into anything on the way home! ;)Narnie -> I do remember thinking 'Ohh a Type R giving it a rev along side...' - Was going to give my Cobra Non-res a rev. But was too late. ;) Great pictures guys!

It's nice to see people find our site and pop in to say hello :) Welcome on board, feel free to pop along to any meet we have. I'm sure some people eventually will sell up and get a different car and stay around just because of the friends they have made.
