Will be there but it may be about 12 before I can make it - will you be hanging around the pub or do I have to cruise the A38 looking for a yellow rocket (actually Leon, rumour has it that your exhaust is audible from 20 miles so probably all I have to do is listen :-) )

Great you are coming, sure we will hang about the pub a while, maybe go out a couple at a time - if at all, dont want to gather too much interest from the plod.

It was great to meet another friendly bunch of Audi nuts. I'm glad we got the S3 cambelt job finished in time to make it.
Cheers for the ride Leon. Your car sounds mental. I hope Andy makes it home ok in the old 90.
We should all do it again sometime.

Nice to see everyone, was a good day out. Leon, car sounds damn nice. Will have to take me for a spin next time we have a meet :wink: How did you get on after we left against Nick? Andy's 90 was a beast poor thing getting a good run up the road fully loaded.

Hey chaps, great to meet some more Audi nuts, some lovely cars and a decent venue too.

Cheers to Leon for the ride down the private test track, that thing is MENTAL but still very refined at the same time, a sort of Audi paradox!

Got the 90 all the way back to Brissol in 3rd gear, bit of a downer but every time you floor it it makes me laught so it'll be a case of Pete and I getting it sorted properly this time and then getting on with some restoration (read bodywork). Hope to bring it along another time when it's finished, otherwise I'll bring my equally Alpinweiss S2 along, even if it's a little slow and missing a cylinder!

Once again, thanks!

Yes, good to meet everyone for the first time. Nice collection of cars.

Leon's car is quick - faster than my RS4. We ran neck and neck in-gear, until the last 1,000rpm or so, where he'd pull ahead. So over a few gears he gained several car lengths on me.

Must get on the phone to MRC... and bank manager....

Excellent meet. Good to see some new faces. Nick - cheers for the blast in the Goodwood RS4, very nice indeed.

Leon's exhaust is a masterpiece, my next trip will definately be to RS Fabrications for something very similar.

I think a few of us are looking to go to the Pod for the BWYB day on the 20th May so perhaps a SW cruise up there is in order.

Also GTI International is only a few weeks away http://www.gtiinternational.co.uk/, anyone tempted by the 1/4 mile contest? There's normally a good show of Audis. :D

Good to meet everyone yesterday. Great weather and a great venue for the meet, should definitely do another one in the summer. Was a painful journey back to Bristol at 50mph, hopefully Andy and I can get the 90 back up and running in the near future. Leon, that car of yours is a beast....thanks for running the FATS logs on mine too. Cheers :)
