Total Vauxhall @ Crail - 9th May 2010

[vaughanmc]

There's a post up in the Scotland region about it but it's getting minimal interest

Anyone who's not a paid up member of the PNG going to this event ?

Reply back here if you are and if your going in a Nova would you be interested in coming onto the PNG stand if we can get one going

Cheers, Vaughan :)

[Lynsey]

I'm going dude :thumb: I do enjoy roadtrips and free hotels!

[muzzy]

I'll be there in a Cavy, also coming with us - MK2 Astra GTE Turbo, orange 2.0 16v Nova and an Astra Coupe :)

[vaughanmc]

Nice one - Folk from Total Vauxhall going to be there taking pictures ? :)

[Lynsey]

Cool, we'll be up in the Calibra and something else ;) You'll like it Vaughany :thumb:

Yeah, they'll be taking photos and that. I think they have a pro photographer booked.

[vaughanmc]

Oh nice...Is it a Nova...Is it a Nova ? :) :)

[vx kev]

Aye the Nova effort is a it poor this year up here as hardly any of us have them on the road so other rides are the name of the day. Showing the clubs diversity ofcourse :d

[vaughanmc]

Wasn't there last year mate...Looked good in the TV mag though :)

[grooge]

mine'll be far from perfect but i'm no really bothered, its no show car its for blasting down the lanes in. aslong as a get the snowplough back on so the whole bottom half is grey again I'll be happy. put my Oz wheels on tonight but still need to get my pal to put 45 profile tyres on the fronts to stop them rubbing. then its just a wash and vacuum and maybe fit a radio seeing as its a motorway journey. probably wont have time to fix the exhaust before then though.

[vaughanmc]

Mine's isn't perfect either mate but it's for the fun of it :)

Fancy meeting outside Crail about 8.30/8.45 AM ? I might see you on the road anyway cheif

[hartley]

You'll be doing well to get from Newcastle to Crail in...3 and a half hours lol

We'll meet just outside the Crail gates and organise things from there - Try and get all the Nova's together then the rest of the cars at the end of the line

I hope no-one shows up late in a Nova because theres no chance of everyone moving so all the Nova's are still together

Will be nice to meet you mate :)
