She’s running a robou ecu isn’t she?

Have you done the upgraded dump valves yet?

Hi All.

Thanks for all for a great day yesterday, special thanks to Sylvia for organising it.

Cheers
Nigel

She’s running a robou ecu isn’t she? Have you done the upgraded dump valves yet?

Lily has a richmod, together with the maf and dump valves that came with it. Eva has the robou, and had a similar problem a while ago which turned out to be a connector come adrift from a pipe behind the dashboard. Lily's wheeze also seems to be coming from the airvents so Al's going to take her dash out - she needs a new bulb in the backlight anyway, it'll be nice to be able to read my info centre again.

Big vote of thanks to everyone who came along, it's the friendly faces and happy chat that make the meets so successful.

Thank you in particular to Sylvia and her glamorous assistant for organising us in to such a lovely get together.

We had a great time meeting friends both old and new.

We decided to continue up north to Newcastle to see some family and drove back that night. That's a good few miles under our friend's belt over this weekend. 

Look at all these poor flies!!!

Some great pictures on here: excellent to see two launch cars together

I didn't take many photos this time but here are a few for good measure:







Thanks again everyone for a great time - see you at the next one...

Here's a small selection of stills from Al's dashcam - pity he didn't do some overtaking and get behind different cars but heyho, scenery is great on the sections where it wasn't raining.

First sight of Ladybower reservoir - that's Ashley in front of Al, then Nigel then Eve then Will



Parking at the dam



Leaving for Snake Pass - can't recognise the first car on the ramp, but the other one is Ashley followed by Will and Eve



Then it's me followed by a 480 disguised as a tree, then Norman



Approaching Snake Pass there is sadly a red blob in the convoy, dropping further and further back, so all we can see is Eve following Will with some tiny 480s in the distance



Fabulous view almost makes up for the lack of 480s



Here's Will arriving at The Fairway



and Eve
