Monthly NW Meet

General Meets + Track Day Reports

Wrights Arms, Belmont, near Bolton.Every first Wednesday of month (e.g. tomorrow 7th Feb) between 7.30 & 8pm, joining in with local Lotus/Caterham 7 Club.Tomorrow, Lotus Ribble Valley are bringing along their demo Exige & Elise Mk2. That means there should be 3 Exiges in the car park - mine, Russell Treasure’s & LRV’s.Last month, about 20 petrolheads turned up, so spring/summer meets should be good [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image]All are welcome, & I’ll be there with a couple of EVO owning mates at around 7pm, as we’re having a bite to eat also.Anybody else able to make it?

Can’t make it tomorrow but should be able to later in the year.

It would seem that the majority of Exige/Elise owners (who use this site) live north of the M25?! Is this true? Southerners declare yourselves!!!

I will see you later Rob, but I wonder if Hitch knows about it ? I am not sure if he is around (he might be swilling shandy at the moment), so I will drop him an email.Cheers RT(check list for tonight:ferret,pigeons,flat cap,clogs)

I’m around, but back down south for the foreseeable. Will be up north at weekends thankfully.BTW Had a call from KJ yesterday asking if I still had the Exige and whether I knew about the 190 upgrade they were selling for 1500 quids. LOL.

8

Perhaps they’re selling the old 190 Kit still ?

I work in manchester…so might be able to make it along later in the year…travel to work by train at present!!!

Bugger… as a last minute fit of optimism, I set out to get to your meet… and hit a jam and sit in traffic for an hour.Crap.Still, I tried. [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/frown.gif[/image]

DavidThanks for trying anyway [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif[/image]You missed a bit of a treat - as well as 3 Exiges, half a dozen 7s, 2 Elises, the star of the show was Tony Regan’s magnificent factory built Ultima [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image] The good news is that he only lives 1/4 mile from the Wrights Arms, so he will be a regular attender. I’m following him down to Le Mans in June [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/cool.gif[/image] Met a certain Mr Treasure at the meet - another bloody nice bloke! Seems to be a common trait of Exige owners…unless you know otherwise [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image] Hope to see you at next month’s meet.
