Al, it's a white car. More than that I can't say but hopefully someone will have pics of what must have been a photogenic scrap! If it helps, he mentioned that he had just done Tour Britannia with it, might be some pics there or I think I might have seen one in Octane.

Al Weyman · 4 Nov 2009, 20:52 (Ref:2575867)

Oh yes I know that car its Richard Lloyds old car and was driven at the WHT last year by Alan Rivers and very well I may add, I could'nt get near it in the wet conditions as my car was handling really bad in any hint of wet, done a few things to sort it since, and the engine would'nt rev over 5500rpm (now got a new engine) and I had stacked it hard in qually so was'nt really up for it. You done well to hold him off.

Is this about Ace Cafe or have we strayed(again)
Still only 20 votes

How about scrapping pole and starting again asking how many are joining us.A vote for each anticipated body.eg If your bringing four people ,four votes.

Is that a good idea James as you are in charge of polls.

Can't be done John. You will need a new thread and poll. I can set it up if you like.

your making dangerous assumptions John, I'm not sure everyone can count, let alone add up!

Al Weyman · 5 Nov 2009, 08:36 (Ref:2576175)

Why don't all interested in attending PM John with number of guests or coming alone and he can keep a tally.

zefarelly · 5 Nov 2009, 09:29 (Ref:2576204)

we've already said we're going, and said how many, its about 20 . . . if less turn up, as John suspects, we'll keep a low profile, if more turn up, the Ace can cope I'm sure. They can get 40 odd cars in the car park.

We don't need to book the place for lunch do we?

delta · 5 Nov 2009, 19:46 (Ref:2576583)

Im definitely going for lunch and breakfast.Alan Morgan as well.Compte still has to get a pass out.

zefarelly · 6 Nov 2009, 08:42 (Ref:2576865)

IF you get there for breakfast on 2 wheels you'll need until Lunchtime to thaw out

john ruston · 25 Nov 2009, 18:22 (Ref:2589131)

Can I assume that the 20 or so who confirmed they would turn up are still on.

Have confirmed with Ace today to expect about 20 cars/bikes and people between 11.30am and 3.pm on the 30TH DECEMBER 2009

Mike Bell · 25 Nov 2009, 18:58 (Ref:2589153)

Yup, I've sent off TB entry and Dec 30th at the Ace could possibly be an Xmas holiday highlight.................

Al Weyman · 25 Nov 2009, 20:03 (Ref:2589191)

Myself, Cliff Ryan and his two boys will be there, may bring another histo racer if he wants to come, will confirm when I see him Sunday but he is usually up for this sort of thing.

terence · 25 Nov 2009, 20:29 (Ref:2589202)

I'm in.

Simon Hadfield · 26 Nov 2009, 16:55 (Ref:2589764)

In view of the massive saving afforded me by not going to The Abdabs put me down for two please.

terence · 26 Nov 2009, 17:08 (Ref:2589770)

Ah well,thats lowered the tone a bit.

zefarelly · 26 Nov 2009, 17:26 (Ref:2589779)

perhaps we should alert the authorities and have a special tranny parking area

terence · 26 Nov 2009, 17:33 (Ref:2589784)

No,dont get dressed up for it Zef.

a bit? I've seen him lording it up in muddy fields like Worzel Gummage . . .Aunt Sally scrubs up alright though

Simon Hadfield · 26 Nov 2009, 20:57 (Ref:2589877)

Oi! Don't take the pi55 - one doesn't get up to the smoke that often - us simple countryfolk could be a little out of our depth!

zefarelly · 26 Nov 2009, 21:22 (Ref:2589894)

Up? it be down from your muddy field, up from our gravelly patch

ooh how we used to dream of the luxury of a muddy field

Alan Crook · 27 Nov 2009, 12:47 (Ref:2590119)
