Hey - I never said mine was quick, just scary. Although the more I drive it the less it scares me.
P.S. really looking forward to the meeting - it'll be good to see some tidy examples. Camera will be present , so comb your hair everyone

I'll be there, should have the motor if I can gaffer tape the wheel arch back on... As for the name of the chap with the blue zetec, I
can't remember but I phoned him a couple of times for information about the zetec. The last time I seen that motor it had a custom plenum
chamber, I guess he changed it to throttle boddies.
See you all soon (If this fog ever goes away!)
Cheers
Stuart

Should be there, might be a bit later than 7:30.
Stu - when are you going to fit those clamshells?
Ewan & Dunc, we could all go in the same car - that way some of us could have a drink?

I'll bring the camera and take some pics hopefully a lineup... Could put them on a page on the site.. Central Scotland Locost Club anyone?
That way I could value my own car and send off the (very professional looking by the time I've finished)valuation form for insurance!
Cheers

At least I waited a few months before putting a new engine into it. Give me a shout if I can be of any assistance.

Hope everyone is still on for tonight and that the weather brightens up for you guys.
Dunc, Stu - not sure what time I'll get there, but I can drop you off on the way back if you want to have a few beers.

Weather in Cumbernauld been dreadfull all day. It will seriously have to improve before I even think about setting out. I don't mind finishing
a journey in the rain, but setting out in the rain is just plain nuts :-(
Here's hoping 
There's a huge cloud hovering over m house as we speak - the type that makes you think daylight is a figment of your imagination.
Still - hope springs eternal.....

Been in Glasgow all day. Weather was great - almost shorts and teeshirts time.
Driving back along the A80 at 6PM, the rain was torrential from Moodiesburn onwards, cleared up at Castlecary. Someone must have been doing a rain
dance in Westerwood!
Yours faithfully, Michael Fish.

The Mk was very very tidy wasn't it ?
Now I've seen one I understand. There is that clear sign of quality from everything on them. Still would be scared of fireblade performance
though
Thanks to all who turned out, it's nice to put some faces to names and even nicer to get some inspiration to do all those jobs.
That was my first motorway run of any distance last night - hadn't looked forward to it at all. Much nicer than I had feared. Oh and it seems I
have a bust tail light as well - but I guess you all clocked that as I drove away......
