After sweating a lot of blood and tears, myself, Omar and The Reverend himself present to you the Anti Gumball

www.scumball.co.uk

1000 miles, in a car worth less than a grand, and a day pissing about at the ring. For approx £500 all in. Are any of you up for it. Even if you aren't feel free to register on the forum and have a laugh with us. Remember that the forum went live today so it needs a few posts to liven the place up

also on the forum I'm Jon, not Lockyer/Insurance Jon as you know me as already!

The pencilled in date for this is 7/7/06, but we are waiting for a couple of events such as Goodwood to decide when they are on.

Enjoy!

Forum's a bit quiet, but we'd still appreciate any comments, questions and suggestions you may have.

If I'm available I'm in.

A few of my mates are interested too.

A couple of four man teams in old Jags sounds like the way to go........

Me and my cousin are sorely tempted... It'll depend on dates.
Hmmm, where's the classifieds section of my local paper gone...

My mate and I are definitely up for this but are hoping it'll be for the weekend after the 7th, just have to await a final confirmed date.
Been looking at cars already and have a shortlist of 3;
VW Golf GTI Mk2
Ford Scorpio 2.8 (frog eyed shape)
BMW 5 series 94ish

My "shortlist" is down to just 25 different cars - I'm looking for something a bit different to everyone else and a bit of a wolf in sheeps clothing!

Count me in, plus two friends. Already thinking about what car. Pug 205gti or XR2i possibly. Has to be something easy to work on just in case.
