[speedemon32]

Hotrod and Hillls is 11-13th June, week before Cleethorpes


Hotrod and Thrills are being used as a round of the NSCC, so there will be a good turnout and plenty of quick cars there, hopefuly down into the 8`s but definatly into the 9`s


Craig

[knobber]

Hi Dave, its the 12th and 13th of June, really good run and fantastic scenery when you go on the cruise, 4 hours taking it easy so ideal run even if you only have one day.

[Bluecat]

Blackford is keeping with it`s original dates 16th 17th and 18th July :)

[GTODave]

[Phase4]

What about Balmaha ?

[GTODave]

What about Balmaha ?

I've never been to the Loch Lomond run as I've always been on call, Hopefuly make it this year as it looks like a great day out, anyone got a date for this?

[quattrothedog]

Stirling and District classic car club show is on 16th May 2010.
It's in Bridge of Allan.

Attached to this post, you will find a scan of the entry form, please feel free to print it, and enter.

Not much initial entry from the Ill-eagles for a club entry, so I would suggest that if you wish a club stand, then list up your details, or pm me, and, if there's enough interest, I'll put forward a club entry for the X-members, rather than single entrants.

Stirling run the show quite strictly, so if you enter as a single entrant, it's doubtful we could then fit you on a club stand.

Closing date for entries is April 24th, so I need to get it in the post by then, so any interest, I'll make April 15th the cut off point.

Thanks peeps.

Hi Craig, has this changed from the original flyer as thats where we were taking the dates from? Are there now three dates for HRaT? I thought it was two:confused:

http://www.moparuk.com/forums/files/kirkbride_363.jpg

[andyl]

thats the correct dates dave on that flyer


check out the web page
www.hotrodandhills.co.uk

17th/18th july- HOTRODS AND THILLS


th/12t11h/13th june- HOTRODS AND HILLS

[GTODave]

Ok thanks for the heads up guys, now amended. Any more info on the 18-19 aug dates as Im not seeing anything on the website:confused:

http://www.hotrodsandhills.co.uk/index_htm_files/31.png

[andyl]

dave are the dates in the event calendar ??
or am i looking in the wrong place :o

[GTODave]

Andy, Ive just been updating the list at the start of this thread.

Events Calender is full off C.A.R.S club meets anyway:D

[speedemon32]

Andyl, Dave GTO


The May dates are amended to 8-9th, for Hotrods and Thrills the dates are the same for Hotrods and Hills 11-12-13th June, Hotrods and Thrills again 17-18th July, and there will be a third event if the other 2 work out ok with people supporting them, on the 28-29th August
The events are RWYB run by the Strightliners, but you will get plenty of runs in and the NSCC are using them as rounds of there championship, so there will be a good field of cars,
Just need you guys from Scotland to turnout and we will have some cracking racing
IF the events are a sucess the idea is for next year for them to be stand alone events just for us

Camping is on site, there is a Hotel , Bar, food

Any quires give me a ring :confused:

As usual when booking Hotrods and Hills drop me an email with your booking reference on and what cars youre bringing and a contact phone number or email


Craig

[Bluecat]

Phantoms "Ghost town Run" on the 16th,17th and 18th of July also.

[speedemon32]

Bugger, seems the events are clashing with everything this year

[GTODave]

Thanks for the info Craig. I'm going to try and make Hotrod and Hills this year as everyone tells me its a great event:cool:

[Danny Fisher]

Sat / Sun dates -is it the last Sunday in Dunfermilne, and the second saturday in Edinburgh?

(may as well put them up?)

[quattrothedog]

Close.

Dunfermline's the second Sunday, and Edinburgh's the last Saturday.

Would be nice with more support for Edinburgh this year, since it'll be a least one car down, until Coog's done.

That will leave about 3 of us :D

[quattrothedog]

Yeah, that's what worries me ! :eek:

[tjm]

well possibly 1 more if my Morris ever gets finished - of course it would help if I knew where and when being a newbie around here :rolleyes:

I s'pose I could always get the bus... but that's public transport :eek:

Actually, I'm assuming that everyone is welcome ??? :(

Correctomundo :D

Do you stay in Edinburgh? There are always some seats going spare so you can always come round even without a car.

As to where and when:
Edinburgh - KFC Craigleith
Dunfermline - KFC... er... Dunfermline :)

Both around the same time - 19:00hrs

[andyl]

tina the one in fife is the 2nd sunday of the month
its in the retail park after the slip rd for kirkaldy (you will be alright
if you just meet us in the ferry NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT just cumfy trainers/slippers)the edinburgh one is the last saturday of the month at craigleith retail park. you might miss us as it was very poorly attended last year

[tjm]

Thanks Mike - thought the good old Scottish hospitality would apply :)

South Queensferry - I do have my daily runaround but not sure if that would be appropriate??? Although would be nice to get a ride in someone else's shiney, sparkley vehicle :D My mom did always tell me though not to speak to or accept lifts from strange men...:p

I'm actually really excited - child that I am - being a cruise/run 'virgin' and all... ;)

Did ponder on another thread about weird initiation ceremonies and poss gave some people certain ideas...:eek:

tina

[stackofire]

you might miss us as it was very poorly attended last year

That's gonna change this year... I'm gonna make up for lack in numbers by making enough noise for 2 cars.... or 3 :cool:

When I won't be working that is :)

[tjm]

Thanks Andy - know both venues very well.

Lovin' the idea of comfy slippers ... pyjama's allowed too??? :D

Shame the Edinburgh meet was poorly attended - perhaps 2010 is the year! :)

tina

[stackofire]

depending on where you live in Edinburgh, you could thumb a lift of one of us

[Danny Fisher]

or, there's always "Lee's Taxis" -guaranteed to impress your neighbours.:cool:

[Kirsti]

tina

yes of course!! PLEASE come to the Edinburgh cruise. It is good fun getting stuck at traffic lights in edinburgh, then trying to find everyone else again after. It's almost like hide and seek cruising with our cars :rolleyes:

No, really.. it is good fun :D The guys who don't come just don't know what they're missing !! :cool:

There's always room in my car if you can't bring your own, but I'm sure there will be lots of boys eager to give you a lift (and also they have slightly cooler cars! ;) )

[GTODave]

"Like hide and seek with cars" that’s the best description of the Edinburgh cruise I've ever heard.

[andyl]

one good thing about it dave is that there's not a lot
of cars to find & only traffic cones to hide behind
the banter is good & it can only get better :rolleyes::D

[tjm]

Thanks everyone!

Kristi - of course I will come - you asked so nicely :)

Most likely will have to get a lift though as I don't think mine will be ready by then :(

I would be most appreciative of a lift from anyone who would be kind enough to take pity on a wee, hotrodless soul like me... :p

I'm used to getting stuck at the traffic lights when I'm too nosey watching the world go by and the lights have gone to green without me noticing :rolleyes:

tina

[quattrothedog]

I have shotgun !! :D

It's on 16th May 2010, in Bridge of Allan.

Original post here.

http://www.xmembers.co.uk/forum/showpost.php?p=8282&postcount=20

No interest as yet, if no interest for a club entry, Kirsti will put Tex forward as a single entrant, and I'll either take the bike or the Volvo.

[superbeat]

is this show any good? never been before.

[quattrothedog]

It's ok, sadly, being May, the weather isn't always so fine.

Pretty much the first show of the year tho.

Normally some jumble, probably a couple of hundred cars.

I've been to worse ?
