I have cleaned out the crap and updated the first post!!!

Instead of quoting everything....

Just find your name
Post in in the reply box
Put YES or NO next to it and then hit submit.

Please DO NOT talk in here about the meet, we just need to simply know if people are attending or not.

Any discussion will be deleted like i just did.
I have started a discussion thread ;)

Right, This is going to be fun!

I have been speaking to the Editor for 'Total Vauxhall' Magazine about our little get together, and when I told him we should have about 50 'C's in one place, he was well interested. He wants to send out a writer and photographer to the event, but wants us to give him something to write about. Obviously he doesn't want to pay weekend rates for two guys if we are all standing about like wooden planks in a car park. So, this is a big opportunity for us to all get a group feature and a write up in a national magazine :mrgreen:

So, with this in mind, and tbh it's only fair to us all, I am trying to put a timetable of events together so we can get a bit more out of the day. So far, I only have a small few ideas, but on the other hand, we can't have too many as we only have one day to work with.

Now for the details.

I am looking to start the day for 11am with a meet and line up so we can see who we have.

We are looking to arrange all past feature cars in attendance along with March's feature car in the middle. March's feature again will be picked by the club staff from the list of attending members. This way we have a special event and showcase for this month's feature (more special than mine :( )

We are also looking to hold some competitions, and this is where I need some help.

I propose at a start that we have a club 'Staff vs Members' Bowling Comp. Also to help solve the long running argument that Sicky is so sure that silver is better, I reckon a black vs silver event in the quasar laser! Also we all have our cars there, so what about some car fun. I am looking into some prizes for the comps (not telling what) so I feel a barry award for the worst car, an April feature for one car. I have spoken to Gruff and we came up with another couple of daft ones and a gem. He suggested a modding competition made of cardboard. This would involve peeps taking card and ideas and modding 2 or 3 cars in cardboard to be judged and the winning team again to receive a prize. I reckon we should time this to 5, 10 or 15 mins as well.

Right, I'm dry on ideas now, so I want some more input either here or PM of things we can do as I have to speak to him again this week with an itineray of the day so they will come. Even if they don't, we'll still have fun :D

Get your thinking caps on and Si, Noony, David & Chewy, sorry I didn't mention prizes earlier, but I figure we'll find some way of buying them :wink:

a little irrisponsible, but how about a "how many people can we fit in/on a shopping trolly" competition. As i said, very irrisponsible, childish and dangerous, but im sure it would be fun :shock:

Darren
18-02-2005, 23:08
^^ Wondered when you would be anouncing this to everyone :P

Good work kash
Will report back :thumbs:

18-02-2005, 23:14
Clemy7's just reminded me it's his and sicky's birthdays, so they'll be providing the cream cakes then :lol:

Darren
18-02-2005, 23:15
^^ PMSL :lol: @ Gruff.

Was thinking
- Defo the bowling and laser quest ;)
- Cleanest car comp
- or even dirtiest car comp
- Who can eat the most ice cream at the hut :P
- Who can fit the most of there mates in there boot!!

^^ Couple might be good... will keep thinking :thumbs:

GruFF
18-02-2005, 23:16
the ice cream idea sounds good!!!! :D

sicky
18-02-2005, 23:54
i love the car cram idea - how many ppl can u fit in a c :D we used to do this at school, fit as many ppl into the car as possible, sumtimes even tried to drive it round the car park, nearly got expelled for doing that! haha

i would like to point out it's not my bday ;) was just joking all along im sure i mentioned it!! :lol: find it really funny that i was beleived!!!!!

I lvoe the cardboard styling game, kash reckons he might use my car so i know exactly whats getting done ;) it will be called "aeroplane face" :D

silver cars v black cars, kash pointed out ppl with silver cars are more likely to pull, according to the radio. well of course they are they have a silver car :|

and silver cars ARE better, as are the owners

u just gotta hope whoever gets voted worst car (ahem kash/noonster/si ;) hehe :lol:) that they don't take it the wrong way, and remember when voting for best car that standard is the new mod ;) and cars with irmscher twin ovals, in silver with a private plate and facelifts are the best by far

AndyW
21-02-2005, 09:22
who can eat most ice cream at the hut
Who can fit the most of there mates in there boot!!

SxiSteve
26-02-2005, 20:35
yeh but its not like its late at night or anything, they've had a couple of those at the ace cafe a couple of times betweeen a few people, i would'nt of thought it would be a problem

i would have suggested the nicest looking ice install but diddons may make it a 1 horse race an it would really b fair

sicky
26-02-2005, 23:11

Last time I spoke to the Editor, he was all for this and was sending two guys down to cover the event. They are looking for some activities and future feature cars as well as giving the club some publicity.

I am going to speak to him this week to double check everything is OK and they will be there.
