Hi All
Last Friday I had the pleasure of taking the cerb in to the city to pick up a few bits from the office in Lombard Street. I think it would be a great idea if anyone is up for it to meet up on a Saturday or Sunday and have a blat around the noise is unreal. All of the narrow streets and high buildings on Friday I had "Bankers" jumping for cover. You know when you get it just right and seems like the pops and bangs will carry on for ever. I had to stop counting after 8 bangs.

Anyone up for it????

Cheers

John

Awesome, i got tugged by the beak just before christmas for doing eactly the same. They wanted to bring down decibel meters and everything - grow up . Breathalysed me (for driving too loudly obviously - in front of about ten thousand people leaving work in Liverpool.

Well up for getting pulled over again though. Was worth it to look smug driving off giving them large pops and bangs.

Is there a dB limit for public roads?

dont think my clutch and radiator would handle driving in the city - too many traffic jams! It does sound great fun though

Sorry must correct a horrific mistake, I meant Liverpool STREET. I wouldnt have been surprised if they had arrested me for driving round making gunshot-like noises in merseyside obviously , and would have been grateful for keeping my trousers on.

I can't think of a better reason to make this happen

How about an early Sunday morning alarm call for all those Westminster residents?

Oh yes..... I like this one...... A London Rally for Cerberas!!! A midnight run would be even more fun, but probably not too practical............. If this gathers momentum, count me in!!

Hi All,
I think I've started something here so there are 7 or 8 up for this so far. Next step we need a date.

If peeps fancy an early one for the benefit of totally empty streets then we need to leave it for about 6 or 8 weeks. It gets light around 7 am but the clocks change in the not too distant future.

Alternative is a sundowner rally

I think I originally posted this on the other thread of the same title, but was driving round London Bridge area last night setting off car alarms left, right and centre. Would definitely be up for a Sunday blat around...

Just see it as my responsibility as a yellow tiv owner, to fully complete the visual and aural picture, purely for the benefit of the adoring crowds of course! I do requests - fav music anyone?

Do we have a target date yet? I could be in, depending on other commitments.
