[vetteheadracer]

American car show in Antwerp.

Hangar 15,
Cockerillkaai,
Antwerp,
Belgium.

10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days.

Call Pete for details on [phone]

or visit www.american-excess.com or www.ccconline.be
for details.

I am thinking of going and will do the Eurotunnel Saturday morning, coming back Sunday late afternoon. Will probably stay at the Holiday Inn Express which cost between €60 and €90 for the night for a room.

Yep, been there a couple of times, also runs in April.

I'd like to go this time as long as I can sort it out work-wise - I'm alrady going away for 2 weeks from August 24th and I'm supposed to be working on the Saturday.

If I can sort it I'm in!

Did it rain when you went Malc?

And are you anywhere near Peterborough right now - it's p***ing it down...

[malc350]

Oi you guys, keep it on topic, you going to Antwerp or what?

[C5RagTop]

Not if you are going - couldn't take any more of that Belgian rain.

[malc350]

that's it, i'm going to ethiopia to make my fortune as a rainmaker...

[C5RagTop]

Bye

[Gixer]

Maybe we will get summer now then

[malc350]

You know what the rain's really about - seeing who's man enough to bring their cars out, as opposed to those who bring them out on sunny sundays (and the nats) only...

Blimey it's raining again, Brett must be around!

Meanwhile, back on topic,

ANYONE GOING TO THIS ANTWERP THING?

[Gixer]

I have got to start minding my mileage now

[97BlackC5]

Hey guys ease off Malc, the last time I saw him I'm almost possitive it wasn't raining!!!!!!

[vetteheadracer]

Malc must have gone somewhere else....it is actually sunny in Didcot today!

[malc350]

Cheers Nige (97 C5)! Wonder what I can do with all the money from my rain making machine, buy a f*rr*ri or l*mb*rghini perhaps?

Or just an old yellow C5 and get MTV to "pimp my ride". Too late, Richard's done it...

The rain's just gods revenge for us real vette drivers that don't have traction control...

...and *ng loads of torque and sh*te tyres.

[franv8]

No wonder Brett's got to start minding his mileage - apparently he's doing 1000 miles a week...

...presumably in an attempt to drive out of Malc's "rain zone"

[malc350]

Didn't know Corvette people could be so boring (talking about rain all the time). Have any of you guys given up trainspotting to get into vettes or something?

Wonder if anyone's actually going to the Antwerp show?

[Camaro SS]

Would have been fun but we leave on the friday for the Nitrolympics in Hockenheim (better not rain)

Makes a change to ebay talk

[franv8]

Like a certain Channel 4 program, is it possible to vote people off the Corvette forum?

I nominate malc350...

Text 'Malc is out' to...

[C5RagTop]

In a vain attempt to take the heat (or should I say rain) off Malc, and to try to get this back on track, I might be interested but may leave Friday afternoon to get a full day in on Saturday.

Anyone else up for it???
