    Dawn drive

    Morning all. Details are starting to fall into place. Route is going to be leaving Macclesfield to Buxton Buxton to wheyley bridge Then to sparrow pit passing the chestnut centre Head towards stoney middleton Then over hassop join a6 for a couple of miles back to bakewell Buxton and Macclesfield area for breakfast Total 87ish miles
  3. Great photos. I can only say thank you to everyone for turning up and making the effort to compete. You guys made the event.
  4. Great turn out today. Thanks everyone who came. Total of £23 to put in the charity box. Let's see what pictures you have I didn't get many to busy organising and hassling people for vote slips. Well done to the winners sorry I don't have a picture wills brz. Will definitely be running the event again next year. We will see about a bigger venue. I will keep everyone updated with dawn drive.
  5. What will be will be wine is good before a competitive show
  6. You Mike and I can go for that prize winner gets a drink
  7. With me Claire has just given me mine back after I've cleaned hers and it's like it's been off roading. No time to clean it again now.
  8. Oo decisions decisions @Lauren. Let indy decide.
  9. Same here. Engine in mine still has the horrible sticky green stuff Subaru use to stop salts getting to the engine in transit. It sticks muck to the engine better than glue and roxy the dog enjoys painting mud pictures all over my interior. Who tried getting mud out of alcatara it's impossible. I put to much cleaner on the drivers seat look like a gentleman's trouser accident.
  10. On arrival tomorrow do what you can to park in the same area. Should make for some good photos with all the spotless cars side by side. Obviously guest competitors encourage are welcome to intermingle. If you could bring correct change for the competition entry that would be a great help. When your parked there's no rush to sign the entry sheet get a drink or eats first if you want . Those wanting to be there with Ben as he judges that's no problem and your welcome to argue your scores after the trophies have been awarded. If it helps Ben will be marking your paint shine, wheels, interior clean and engine bay. My engine bay is filthy so a wipe with a greasy rag will beat my score there. I will have the club vote slips with me either in the bar or at my car pictured below with my border collie so you cant miss me. Simply take a slip make a note of the club car you like best and hand it back before 1pm. There isn't any official presentation. But if everyone wants to see the cups awarded gather near the cars at 1ish unless raining in which case grab a drink and congregate in a corner of the bar. No planned finishing time so don't feel pressured to hang around if you've had enough. Those bringing non members I trust you will keep them under control some of these mazda (yes I'm bringing a guest mazda eunos which is the worst of the lot) and audi drivers can be quite the rabble and if your guest looks like winning a blind eye can be turned to sabotage or bribery. Anyone wanting more information about detailing or car care products and techniques Ben from Lawtomotive will be around till 3ish Any questions let me know or if I've missed anything remind me otherwise see you all tomorrow let the brightest car win.
  11. Everyone knows the moment someone breaks the wax out it's bound to rain. Just stop at polish and everything is fine Would everyone consider it cheating or initiative taking it bottle of spray wax tomorrow for that just waxed look before judging starts
  12. For those that need it. Here's the venue postcode ready for Sunday. Warslow, Buxton SK17 0JY
  13. Definitely feeling more positive weather wise having just watched BBC breakfast weather. Wash and polish for the black gt86 this morning and full detail for the red car this afternoon.
  14. Fingers crossed the scooters stay in Leek. Might be worth heading up from the Buxton side if you have that option. Weather forecast is looking better depending on whose forecast you look at.

    Dawn drive

    Don't forget the chance for a photo shoot and some banter. Nearly got the route sorted. Just need some inspiration for a breakfast location and picture spot.
  16. I need to persuade her to clean it again it's filthy at the moment haha
  17. Up for grabs this Sunday at the club show and shine event taking place at the greyhounds Inn Warslow near Leek. Free to attend £1 to enter each competition. Competition 1. The Lawtomotive detailing award judged by Ben Lawtomotive himself a professional detailer. This is open to anyone with any make or model of car. Competition 2 is the club vote all attending gt86 or BRZ drivers get to vote for what they think is the best presented car from the club. Food and drink available from the inn bar. Those heading up as convoys shout out your start points so more drivers can join you. Event starts at 11am judging at 12pm. Any questions get in touch. Also check out the shine on @claire's red gt86 could be a contender.
  18. If it's really wet we can turn it into a best water beading contest.
  19. So the car show is getting closer and sods law it starts raining ☔. Without wanting to jinx things the 21st looks OK for the time being.

    New Wheels

    I've found these on eBay been watching them for a while just can't keep funds in the bank long enough to afford them (bloody family and friends all having birthdays). Maybe of use to someone else as far as I know them fit.
  21. If it's in rrg macc have Richard give it a proper vallet for you.
  22. @DaveaH. If it's a bit dirty and the front has eaten a few bugs just shows that you're using it properly. I've spoken with my fellow organiser and the club voted category will take usage into account. So well used daily drivers will still be in with a chance.
  23. Breakfast and drive. Organised for this Sunday 12th March. Meeting at the victorian in Bramhall. . sk7 2be Meet time 9.45 Drive starts at 11am at the latest and will be finished by 1pm so everyone can enjoy the rest of the day.
  24. Quick reminder Anyone planning on attending could you please rsvp on the club calendar Helps me keep track of numbers
