My first meet I ever organised was 3 cars - think the biggest I had was 30ish - its hard work but great when you see a region grow

It's prob going to be Feb now before I can do a meet - Saturday's are good or even a Sunday.

North East / North meet - Tonto - 11:th-Jan-2016

Well I'm off the week beginning 15th of Feb so that would be best for me!

Right best place I can find is near Darlington just off A1.

I used to go there along time ago when I was part of Vauxhall sports car club.

The Dog Inn
Cross Lane Ends
Heighington
Darlington
DL2 2TX

What you think?

RE: North East / North meet - sheppy1 - 13:th-Jan-2016

110 miles each way from my house!!! hope the drive there is nice! HAHA

North East / North meet - Tonto - 13:th-Jan-2016

Sounds like a plan to me! So next up why time is best for everyone? 12.00 so we can grab lunch and a pint (shandy).

Balls the wife's working that weekend so I won't be making the 51/2hr trip sorry guys would of been good to meet/see you all.

Northampton is annoying all the sodding roundabouts on the way in and I did live there for 2yrs.

RE: North East / North meet - Hev - 14:th-Jan-2016

Yeah 12 is good. You putting it on Facebook page?

Who's going so far:-
