LSTR - October Meet

[LondonF350]

Ideas for the October GTG?????????????????

Last Sunday of the month is the 25th, but I guess we could bump it to Sunday 1st Nov??

:chug:
OK, looks like we have the date sorted... :lol:

DATE: 25th October 2009
TIME: 11:00 (?)
LOCATION: ???
MAP: ???

[I Can Crawl]

I would be able to make the 25th but not the 1st, so could we have 2?

Also i've read a few things about ashridge and it seems like a good place.

[LondonF350]

25th should be OK for me too... I just thought I'd throw the 1st in as an option for any who couldn't do the 25th.
:nice:

[Dready]

25th is good.:nice:
1st isn't

[tempra007]

25th good for me
forgive me I'm getting old but haven't we been here before?

same place or slightly different venue?

[airwolfie]

Slightly different venue. It's more trailing than exteme hill climbing. It still is a bit of a challenge though. There is also another bit which is almost similar to Oxshott.

Or Graham's. We haven't been there yet.

[Dready]

Right 25th it is then.

Now we just need to argue the Venue out.
I want some peebles to try my new 2.2 Badboy out.

all he needs to do is make a tube chassis for the cot, couple of wheelchair motors little odds and sods, a good harness then daddy duties solved!

but seriously I remember when my boy was that little I didn;t want to leave him, so maybe the baby bug has hit the big man?

[UK_Andy]

i really dont know if ill be able to make the next meet, but if i can ill give some guys a lift if your willing to chip in for petrol (that means you Charlie Chuckles, Yousairan)

25th is good for me. Has any one made up new coures markers yet? if not i think i got some old metal hamster cage which should work better than the last lot.

[airwolfie]

Yeah do if you can!! Maybe add some flags to them as well, so they are more visible, white for left, red for right, right? Just use some tape or the like.

[jai_landrover]

Hey when are you guys up Ashridge?
I'll ask Spitfiremk1 if he is about again,

I gotta get my truck half ready for the next Firework/1:1 trials event/rc trial thats being held on the 6/7/8th Nov at a trials site near North Weald.

Ashridge would be a good shakedown before hand.

[airwolfie]

Nice one Sam, they will have to be metal, nothing else seems to last with our drivng skills!!:lolbeat:

Just remeber guys, it's not at the same place last time, it's a bit further down the road. If you go past the monument on your left(road with cars parked either side and the monument is at the end) you have gone too far! If you get lost just stop off at the old spot and give me a ring, I'll guide you from there.
I'll be ther from about ten.

See you all tomorrow!!:nice:

[yousarian]

Yes it is mate! It's right on the bit where the road kinks to the right a bit, directly opposite the corner of the field on the left. It's quite a small parking bay, I hope we can all get in there!!
