| It's Friday, so who's out and about cruising around Thanet tonight? I'll certainly be out and about, upsetting as many boy racers in thier souped up cracker jack toys as I possibly can!!!
Hope to bump into a few of you while I'm out playing tonight.

| Used to look forward to poets day.
Get the car ready for a rally or sprint,
Drive / race all Saterday quite often overnight,
straight down to Biggin, breakfast, then a few flights with my mate in his Tiger.
Come Tuesday it would catch up and I needed them matchsticks Tony offered.
Kill me now if I tried.

| Haha, well I'll be out representing the club to the fullest of my capabilities by giving it the beans to anyone that wants to try and play! Lol.
Lee, have you thought about maybe getting some Thanet Classics windscreen stickers made? Just to make people aware of the club?
Roger, just because you drive an old, or classic car, this is no excuse to act like an old git!!!
Lol.
Have a good and safe weekend guys

Alan Yes stickers, t-shirts, hoodies etc etc should be with us before the summer, just trying to finalise designs and prices with Tony before we get going. Is there anything else that people would like? ~Lee | |

Roger Blimey that sounds great fun, What's the furthest you've travelled in the Tiger Roger? I would regularly pull over at Manston and watch the gliders..... always said I would have a lesson but never did. | |

| Tony,
Still two gliding clubs nearby - Kent Gliding Club at Challock and Channel at Waldershare. Both do trial lessons. Give it a go. I guarantee you won't regret it.
If you want a go in a Tiger, check out the Tiger Club at Headcorn. Again, trial lessons available and brilliant fun. Sadly, I'm not checked out on the Tiger otherwise I'd be happy to oblige. Maybe I'll get round to it in the summer.

| Wow thanks for the info Andy, I may just give it a go this year.
I think the Gliders look so graceful I just need to pluck up the courage to go up in one.
I will check them both out, thanks Andy

| Oh, one or two Tony. It's the idiots in things like M3's and Scoobies that I upset the most, people just don't realise how much faster I can get off the line and round corners!!!
I had a BMW Bini cooper S that tried having a go along caterbury rd on the way back from Richards today. That turned into a very small speke in my mirrors very quickly. Don't think he liked the '100% BMW FREE' sticker in my back window much either!!! | |

| I just love the look on peoples faces when the lights go from red to Amber (don't usually see green). Or the dissaproving look the old guy taking the wife and dog out for their Sunday drive gives me.
It all put the biggest grin on my face and has since the day I've owned the car | |

| Once again, Friday looms. The end of the week for most of us, so the question is... Who will be out representing the classic car culture this weekend?
Once again, I'll be out upsetting as many diddy boy racers as I possibly can!!! Hope to see a few of you out and about!!!

| Tony's beaten me to it! Although I've started early this week by upsetting some donut in a Mk3 Astra GTE Convertable on canterbury road last night! When he eventually caught up with me while I was parking up, his first words were "That is no way standard!" after showing him why my 1330 murdered his 2000 his parting words were "Good effort, Very impressed!"
So who out of you lovely people are going to show the boy racers of thanet why classic cars still reign supreme? | |

| A quick blast to sturry and back has revealed the first upset car of the evening! A GT4 shape (But not a GT4) Celieca! He wasn't too sure what to make of being outdone by a car twice as old and with a smaller engine! | |
