Just to add, Richard Smith of Dulford Automotive has kindly lent Tyre Smoke a DB meter for the exhaust sound off.

Although before people get too excited about the noise their steed creates, I had TS's Cerb on the ramp in work this week and when it pops it is banging off the scale 120db+ at 3/4 of a metre at 45 degs

It is the loudest road car I have ever heard.

Do we need to secure the rocks first?

F*c%ing battery's gone on the T350

Looks like this is going to be a goodun, so might be in the 'Titty' instead

go and get a battery or nick one, looks like a nice car, shame not to bring it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tis now on charge over night, hopefully it'll start in the morning.

(might need a 'jump' somewhere if we stop for too long though)!

Hey.........it's a TVR, what do you expect!

Shucks. Was looking forward to the hairdresser jokes

Ahh stalker!!

[groucho]

Sorry guys, I'm not going to be able to make this because my battery is dead as a dodo with asian bird flu. Looks like I'm going to have to dig deep for a new one.
Graham (V8S) if you need to chat to me about that roof e-mail through my profile. If that's still bouncing send one to [e-mail]. Mind you, your e-mail was bouncing too last time.

Catch up with you guys at the next one.

[Robfow]

likewise.

i really havent done much to the photos. just adjusted the white balance and increased the contrast and saturation. generally the light seemed to work well for most photos so that all the cars looked quite shiny anyway.

& mine! Ah, thats because I grafted on it yesterday & gave it a good coat of Maguires

Good meet, it definately lived up to the title of this thread, good to meet everyone, shame about the tractors on the way to the pub but atleast we all got there.

I think that bike cop definately called in reinforcements, anyone else followed by trafpol on the way home?!

Who won the sound off in the end?

[jdwcd]

I think it might have been that fab looking white cavalier that went stonking past us all at the car park! I wish I had saved that £80 in fuel, then I could have had one of those!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
