So we had our first regional RR pub meet last night. Members present: Keefy Dafandango Seth Berlinetta Meercat B'stardchild Pogweasel Not bad for a first effort! Only 4 cars mind (and only 3 in the crummy phonecam pic below as BC didn't arrive till after dark - what a noise that Monza makes!!!!! ;D ) A good time was had by all lots of chinwagging about past glories and future plans. Top stuff. Pleased to see the cars getting a fair few admiring glances from the 'great unwashed' too. Result. So hopefully this can become a permanant fixture on the RR calender. All welcome to 'part 2' next months! Larry had the camera out so hopefully some better quality / better composed shots may appear here too

Only 3 cars in that pic but a great cross section of the RR collective Kit.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Yeah, should be a bit less than that as it's a smidge closer to you than my house. If you get a clear run then an hour is feasable, with only minor speed limit infringement

Good work all. Our Norfolk meet started with just me and BC - you've got more than that already so think where you'll be this time next year.... DarrenW won't need to go looking for those Burger King shots!
BC, where's your next debut RR meet appearance planned - Midlands? North-West?
