Club 80-90 Forums

OK dates then... Simon and I have work commitments at the beginning of the month but we can both do the last two weekends. So how about 23rd, 24th, 30th or 31st?

Either for me!

The lanes Mal and I have done are very scenic, not too challenging. Would be suitable for all. There is about a 2 1/2 hour worth around Bovey Tracey towards Moretonhampstead, with various watering holes en-route. If anyone knows of any other lanes, perhaps the Okehampton ones that Syncropatrick has done could be added on in the afternoon, as the last lane takes us back to the A30.

This sounds good, count me in

Hello All, I will be wanting to join you please, hopefully with a decent engine by then, I would be happy with any date but please give me plenty of warning so that I am not swapping engines on the same weekend 01822 841333; 07772 883778;

I will be able to nominate some lanes around Bovey Tracey or the Totnes areas, again please let me know so that they can be checked out in time
Doug, you could bring my engine down with you!!

Of course Roger, should be on the floor soon. You putting the 2.1 from the yellow van into the single cab?

Yup!
Took the Fred to my local off road site on Sunday last, 20 minutes later, need new O.S.R. C.V. joint. diff locks not engaging, engine still going though?! towed a Discovery out of a puddle!

Roger,

The lanes Simon & I drove the other month were in the Bovey area so any extra ones there would be useful.
Can you PM Simon & I the Grid Refs or similar and we'll start putting the day's laning together.

Good luck with the SIKA!

Grid references? er?! they,m all in me ead.?! havent used an O.S map for ten years!

I dont know if I can match the hospitality of Syncrospares but your welcome to meet at my workshop and travel from there if your doing Bovey and Totnes. Just let us know when the date has been confirmed.

Thats a good idea Dave!

A start point with tea making facilities sounds a great idea to me!

Either is good for me. Good to make it a Saturday though. gives Sunday for a clean up if needed.

Will try harder this time. A Saturday sounds good.

I don't think I'm going to make it this time. Since I got my syncro home, I've never got more than 10 miles without something going wrong. Still hoping to meet up with other syncro owners soon, never had a good look around any vehicle other than my own and very keen to learn all about them. I've downloaded how to get my difflocks working from the syncronauts website and bought myself an oil pressure guage so that I can find out if I really should be worrying about the low oil pressure lamp coming on every time it warms up.

I'll continue to watch this thread for the date and location, just in case things go better than expected and I'm feeling brave. Have an excellent meet.

Paul
