Kent/SE CSL meet in 2014

[Das Chin]

all

i know there are a few of us in kent like me, vic, pip etc and some london chaps too. Not sure if the TOWIE boys will come south of the river? :-)

was wondering if anyone fancies a meet in new year?

the pistonheads meet at the grasshopper in westerham is normally good but prob not ideal weather until march/april.

let me know if u fancy it and can get cracking.

have a great xmas and a happy nee year, nick.

Hello mate

That's sounds good to me keep me in the loop

[Chris-CSL]

Same here :)

When the weathers a little better in the new year a Rye breakfast run :supz:

Though the Grasshopper meet is also a good place to meet up.

[Das Chin]

sounds good gents. Mate of mine runs a hotel in rye pop in for brekkie.

lots of good roads out there on kent sussex border.

got a mate with GTR and one with gt3 rs 996 who would be in too.

[sjb]

I'm up for it :wink:

[plumber vic]

Yes Nick
The old girl's for subframe at Elm's at the moment
Always up for a ride out.

But good breakfast
Bring on the sunshine

[Yanto]

Up for this boys !

[cslgirl]

Sounds good to me..... (unless it's a boys only club?):whistle:

[Das Chin]

good lord no. We would love a lady there to equalise out the sausage fest a bit.

you maam are a breed!!

[Pip1968]

I am very interested. I think that Westerham PH is where the Pistonheads lot meet up. Also went there for a p@ss up following the death of a Para Regt lad. Rye is also very nice. Lots of nice tea rooms.

Anyone interested in something sooner between Christmas and New Year???

March is good for me. Just hope it is not like last year's Destination Nurburgring with sub zero temperatures and snow.

Pip

[adem.csl]

[sjb]

I have a skip in front of the garage now and then another one till at least February or early march so I'm out until then unfortunately. But very much up for a meet in the spring :beer:

[Bealo]

If this becomes a regular event and you have a meet in May then count me in

[pinkpanther008]

Sure i can convince monkeyCSL to join.

[Das Chin]

[Chris-CSL]

travelling south you always take M11 > A12 3 tunnels not including the Blackwall Tunnel just on the north side :P another one on the south side

Travelling North Dartford Tunnel

Dam Northerners got no idea about the South :)

and before any comments anyone above the Thames is northern to me!:finga:

[sp2c]

Been following thread with interest & now having collected my SB this afternoon, am fully armed for a meet....how do these things work?....who decides time, place etc...?
All I need to do now is learn to drive properly!!!!

[Pip1968]

We could always do it at ML (Chelwood Gate nr E. Grinstead) which would keep Monkey happy and give us a few other classics to look at. That is if he is interested in hosting it.

I have not been there for a few years but there are some nice roads down that way and they may even have an original CSL there. Who knows.

Pip

[Das Chin]

welcome sp2c and sounds like a nice car.

I was thinking about combining this with the next pistonheads meet at the grasshopper in westerham as the ones last year were awesome and some great cars there....modern and classic.

not sure when the next one is but will find out.

looks like we could have quite a few cars there and a good excuse to get out for a blast.

DC

[plumber vic]

Can it be Thursday evening then we can go onto grab a granny ( if it's still on)

[Jon8710]

im keen as mustard for a cheeks meet soon,

ML sounds good to me.

Pip


Hi Pip, thanks for thinking of us:)

I'd have to double check with Dan, but I cant see a problem if you guys want to swing by. Could maybe do an open ramp session depending when it is. You guys could get your cars up on the ramps and have a look at parts you cant normally see.

Let me know if you guys are interested and I'll sound it out and set the wheels in motion.

Just had a chat with Dan, yes it would be fine. We do a number of open ramp days through the year, we'd be happy to provide this for the CSL register. We normally do 30 min ramp slots, with a designated technician for you to cast your eye over the car. BBQ is a mainstay of our ramp days too:)

And there's always some eye candy in the showroom.

If you guys are interested give me as much notice as possible please, it will enable us to provide a better day for all attending.

[shimmy]

Where is Kent?

[mattCSLnut]

im keen as mustard for a cheeks meet soon,

ML sounds good to me.

:thumbs:

+1 :thumbs:

[si.w]

I'm up for this. Can you put me on the list!

[Das Chin]

ok will add newbies.

the ML offer is very kind but its a bit of a schlap and not really what i had in mind. A mate of mine has ramps which i can get on easily at any time.

i wanted to try and keep this in kent and not too far for the london boys.

[sjb]

Damn, ML is only 30 mins from me :whistle:

Happy to go to any of the aforementioned. Still be nice to do a ML csl open day though :beer:

[Monkey]

I'm more than happy to arrange a seperate event at another time, no problem. I'll start a different thread at some point to guage interest, and go from there. Maybe either before the track day season really gets under way, give people a chance to give their car a decent once over, or back end of the summer may be better.


Of course anyone is welcome to come down during normal working hours:)

[Das Chin]

we should do both monkey. an ML visit would be ideal at the weekend for example. pistonheads meet handy after work for a sherbie or two.

I have PMd the guy on PH who sorted out the event last year at grasshopper and hope for much of the same this year.

Sounds good to me, I can organise an open ramp day for the CSL register no problem. Anything upwards of 15 cars is preferable, can do a day just for the CSL register then. We do them on Sundays, as it doesn't interfere with the normal working week then. The guys wont mind coming in for a group of CSL's :)

[Steve B]

Put me down as long as it doesn't clash with work....

You're telling me I woke up 1 Saturday morning to a road full of police, guy over the road from me took both barrels of a shot gun on his doorstep...!

[ac427]

Is when and where still to be decided ?

[Das Chin]

I think Grasshopper meet but not sure when. I think it will be late march to early april. waiting to hear from Umair over at PH.

[billyboysm3]

Lets meet at Brands Hatch, get on track and have some fun!!!

[Pip1968]

Das Chin, what is the latest on this? I am still free in March but as we get closer days are being pencilled in for other things......

I think that we should just do a few beers at 'The Oak on the Green'.
Pray for good weather and have a bit of lunch and then go for a 'pootle' :whistle:.

Pip

[Das Chin]

Pip

beers sounds good at the oak. will wander down thanks ;-)

first pistonheads meet is 1st April and looks like it will be mentalist:

I am number 151 as dropped the ball on that one and forgot.

hope to see some of you all there. we can always arrange sth a bit smaller in early April too.

NW

[Das Chin]

its filling up quickly peeps so get on there to register or you will be on the reserve list.

[Chris-CSL]

On the Reserve list

[Pip1968]

I'm ooot. Unfortuanately I was only good for sometime in March. If I am around I may pop down uninvited. I have not looked at the link but assume it is the pub in Westerham. I can always pop the Brompton in the boot and cycle there from town if parking is limited.

Pip ;)

[sp2c]

Hi Guys
Been reading posts with interest, but not joined in....sorry
Would like to take the opportunity of meeting up sometime, if it's not too much of an imposition
I managed to register @ 160 & last place on the PH Grasshopper meet 1.4.14, so will hopefully meet some of you then, if not before

[Chris-CSL]

The times I have been to the grasshopper its been a cycle of cars coming and going so just slap your name down and you will get in.

/C

[Fasteddie]

Well that PH meet is a bigun' might have to drive up anyway, have you seen - there is a Dacia duster there, live in the flesh or tin, whateva! Looks likely we'll need our own smaller more special meeting though, only DasChin made it. I'm taxing the car from April so up for a local subject to parenting duties

[shimmy]

I'd make an April meet when car is put back together again.......need to test the brakes:)

[Bealo]

Looks like i will be back in UK either all of May or all of June (work will decide this!)

I should know next week and will be looking to have a car packed month so will be up for most things... :thumbs:

Chris and Fast eddie are coming. not sure about pip? still probably cleaning out his trousers from that ring moment ;-)

DC

[Chris-CSL]

will be good to meet up

[sp2c]

I'm still going....hope weather kind!

[sjb]

Not going to the PH meet but still up for a local meet, the car is already out of hibernation :supz:

[Das Chin]

cracking eve and a lovely day too to boot.

nice to meet Chris, Fast Eddie and Vic. Vic you are just plain greedy with a CSL and an RS.

nice to see 3 x SG CSLs there along with some other great kit. Vics 997 RS next to my mate Phil's white GT3RS was a highlight for me.

my mates 700 BHP R35 GTR caused quite a racket and it sure does push along too.
