Club Meet - Christchurch, 24 March

Postby 001 Neville » 08 Mar 2012, 12:12

Meet centrally at Hagley Park carpark (Botanic Gardens? end of Armagh Street) at 10-10.30am then convoy to McGregor Motorsport (Lotus Seven kitcars) in Woolston for a factory visit on Saturday - they are pleased to host us.

We would be happy to host the Opel club this Saturday. I happen to be a big Opel fan having raced and owned a few C20xe Cosworth head type motors in my life. In fact I am still looking for a C20XE Superboss motor for a car!

I will set up a motion car simulator (link below) with an
Opel and Ruapana track if you want the boys to have a go.

Then on to Jim's warehouse to look at his fleet of cars including a Kadett B Rallye, a GT, and several other Opels.

Please can we get a good number to attend, as I don't want to have to cancel again!

Sorry about that, Lindsay, but the factory requested it be earlier rather than later.

Good to have you along, Michael. What about your mate with the Senators? Any chance he could be available? I think one of the Sennys had a current reg and wof?

I presume Matt will be along too.
