Audi Driver International 2011 Saturday October 8th Castle Combe circuit

[FranA3]

Another buckled wheel! But not as bad as the first one. Wheels sorted, collecting new ones tomorrow with tyres so will have them on for ADI.
Wanted to refurb the centres before hand but they will do as they. What time do you want to meet Saturday and where? Need to get my mate know as well he got an 8P3

ah right better than any major damage i suppose wheels are easyer to replace than susspension arms etc.. not cheaper tho lol , glad your getting it sorted man , no idea i'll text darren and see what the plan is and let you know soon

[Ash187]

I'm 100000% coming.
I'm linking Farhana at Chiswick roundabout at about 7:45, and should be meeting another member (josiah) at Ace cafe at about 7:15-7:30.
Rye's going to confirm if he's coming for def, so if he is I'll be meeting him first in east London.

Could be another 2 or 3 members meeting us en route too.

It's oooooon!!

Just drive it mate!
Yeah its got a dent, but its still all good. Your car doesn't look tatty or anything, it just looks like its had a knock.

Do it and drive slow! And it doesnt matter your car standard most cars at ADI are standard Audi's anyway.

[Ash187]

guys its not a ding... my damn uncle reversed into the damn door

plus not to mention the state the paint work is in

but that should all be sorted out soon enough as it should be going for repairs soon and a paint job

i think i might just bring the old girl and show her off... even if she is injured.

If you can't get it sorted in time and you still want to go there's always a spare seat in mine geezer. I'm riding solo for this one so plenty of room.
Something to keep in mind bruvvva.

PS: Euro car parts reserve and collect from woodford, 25% off everything using code CRAZY25

I didn't even bother inviting any of my boys, can't be a*sed with being responsible for anyone else and having to make sure they're not bored etc!

Yep, Im looking to leave east at about 6:30 or 6:45!
Its about 1.5hrs / 80 miles on the M4 starting from Chiswick, so to be safe we need to give ourselves about 45mins to get to chiswick on the A406.

 

[Ash187]

the race is on!
so where am i meeting you Ads? as i am coming up from the A2?

Probably best you go through the blackwall tunnel and carry on until you hit the A406 at redbridge. Then go north/westbound on the north circ and I can meet you in the petrol station just after the Walthamstow turn off.
Do you know the petrol station I'm talking about??? I think its BP, just before Costco.

We could meet there at about 6:30.

Farhan - how does meeting you at Chiswich roundabout at 7:15 sound???

 

[Ash187]

im not totally sure about that petrol station... i know the one near the VW garage just after the road works... by bounds green. thats not a bad meeting place... wow 6.30 on a saturday morning??? i must be mad!

Yeah I know the other petrol you are talking about. On the corner, just before you go under the bridge.
I could meet you there at about 6:45 if you like. That one is further along the north circ.

 

[Ash187]

yh thats the one, it s easy to get to and i usually have my own diversion to get there to avoid the roadwork traffic... not that there will be much at 6 in the morning! knowing me il be late like usual... i might need a wake up call in the morning

 

[Ads]

Its a date then! I'll meet you there at 6:45 on saturday morning. Jesus, that is early!

I'll PM you my number so we can contact each other if needed.

Josiah PM'd me a couple of weeks back saying he was probably coming too and would meet us at Ace Cafe. Said he'll confirm by Friday, so that might be another one in the convoy.

There's an 8L geezer coming too who is probably going to meet us on the M4 at the M25 junction.

Cribbon and Rob-Quattro also mentioned in this thread that they might want to link up along the way too.

I'll just wait to hear from people and if they want to meet still then we can arrange it.

 

[RedDejavu]

count me in. I cant resist to this one

count me in. I cant resist to this one

Good man. You're welcome to catch us on the M4 if you like, otherwise see you there!

 

[Farhan]

Cool as matt is now on coming hes in bracknell so he could carry on the convoy with us from reading services? Gives us all a short break to stop over have a wee, a smoke and stock up on more caffeine.

We can meet him up at reading services and then carry on from there if thats alright with everyone?

 

[Ads]

It's all good with me. The more the merrier!

 

[Farhan]

Wicked sounds good, Ads as your the most punctual with times lol can you give us a rough estimation as of when we shall be arriving near reading services LOL? if we at latest leave mine at 7:30-7:45 which is bound to happen even tho we say 7:15 there will always be a slight hold up but we aim to meet at mine 7:15 and be on the road by 7:30

I think you've got it twisted!!! I will be at the chiswick petrol station at 7:00-7:15... meaning we (or I) will be back on the road at 7:16!! Leaving that petrol station at 7:45 is not an option!

Reading services is 40 miles from chiswick roundabout/M4, so I reckon we should get there in about 35mins or at 8:00 to round it up.

My advice to everyone who is meeting us... be at your meeting point at least 15mins before we are supposed to meet you. Otherwise if we add 10-15 waiting time to each meet up we'll be getting to ADI at 9pm!

This is a military operation.
