Finally got around to Registering ! North West

[Chris Oliver]

I got a red 1989 Mk1 T-bar, spent many hours underneath it and love driving it. :D

I live in the North West (Macclesfield), so hope to see many of you at Tatton sports car show.
Regards,

Chris.

Hi Jo,

I always wanted a SC :+: , I bet it is Lauren's !

I tried to get over my Supercharged passion, by getting a poker for my daily drive, nearly worked, I still love driving my MK1b as much as I can, very different car to the Porsche. :angel:

@gary: I wanted to go to the Lakes it's looks a great run, seen the pics from last year, Bill keeps phoning me up asking to go.
Problem is I got two big nights out on Friday and Saturday, so I don't think I will be sober by Sunday morning!
Weather looks great for Sunday for this time of year, should be fun, its like a long cat&fiddel run with less sheep.

Something none MR2 related for the NW events:

Just to let you know, if you live in the North west (I told Bill) everyone is welcome to attend the Porsche RS day at Oulton park Fri March 6th.
I went to this last year and it's FREE to watch, and is "Open Pit Lane" so you can talk to the guys and get close to the cars.

I know a few of the people who race and have also got Mk1's as there second cars.

I booked the day off for this as it's on a Friday, not to be missed if you love fast cars !

I went to this last year, it was the most exciting thing I have ever seen, the sound and speed of GT3 RS and old RS Porsches.

"Click" on "View Attendees" under March "OULTON PARK PORSCHE DAY", to see the list of the worlds fastest Porsches that will be there.

Hi Chris,

Good to see a few more local members. :+:

I'm at Uni in Sheffield and so frequent the Peaks quite a lot. Perhaps a run is in order?

Cheers

@Jo: I haven't Trackdayed my Porsche yet, I use the normal roads for that. :angel:
I'm hoping to get a ride around Oulton Park (Porsche RS Day) on Friday as a passenger in a GT3RS, its only £10 fee for the day, its free to watch...

Bill's H is going with us to Porsche RS Day, weather looking great, can't wait !

@Tom: Good idea about a run, there not many events on this side of the North West, the club mets are a bit too far up North for me.

Here is a Mk1 Mr2 Meet: FREE - Porsche RS day Oulton Park Fri Mar 6th (Mk1 Mr2 Meet)

Really wanted to go to the Lakes run, Bill said it went well (had too many parties to go to that weekend).

Regards,
Chris.

The club used to do a peak district run - the roads round there are ace :+:
maybe someone should organise another?......(any takers)
