Was driving along in the gfs 106 quiksilver and see a FC up ahead just going up Street bypass, catch up and pull along side him at lights hoping he would at least give it a bit off the lights. I pull away and he doesnt even bother, followed me out towards ashcott on the Bridgewater road then stopped in a old garage. Anyone off here???
Was quite possibly my old FC, owned by Retrobate on here. Did it have a large single exit exhaust?
yep it did sounded quite beastie
h*** kmo that the reg??? didnt think i should put the full reg up
yeah that sounds about right - did it look like it would never reach 100 mph on the 1/4 mile - if so then its DEFO retrobates car :D :D :D
lol y is that???? sounded beastie but didnt really push it much was going slow or was that as fast as its goes :wiggle
just joking matey :D
me and retrobate were supposed to be running against each other at RSIII , the weather soon put a stop to that
have a look at the sticky in the 2nd gen section about the 100 mph challenge - it will all make sense then :D :D
Stu
Thats the correct reg :yes And in answer to why he didnt leave you for dust its probably :-
a) Couldnt be arsed
b) Had a headache and couldnt take the additional noise
c) Knew it was going to cost him £8 in petrol to \'see you off\'
d) Its broken
Yeh yeh yeh, Ok guys it was me!
In answer to your question, you should consider yourself lucky â€" few people have ever seen the TII being driven sedately! Also, I was probably being shouted at for a) saying the sat nav was wrong, I know where we\'re going... and then getting lost, and b) driving too fast in the first place!
Also had a scary moment later involving an Elise and what I thought was a police van...
:rollin Just realised what pic you are using for your avatar :D
Yes indeedy! :D Not the best pic in the world, but hey, it holds fond memories!
:Giggle

Yeh, i think we were looking for some random coutryside pub where we were meeting people at that point â€" there was lots of slow driving and plenty of turning around going on, i can tell you! ;)
If i see a 106 quicksilver around again, i promise to give it some next time! :burnout
gdgd although it will prob be the gf driving it next time lol so where u from??

lol well, if i see a 106 and it\'s not you driving, then it\'s your fault if your gf comes back in moaning about the reckless driving of RX owners!
btw, I work in Bath and live about 5 miles south, in Dunkerton.
lol its ok shes into cars just as much as i am, keeps moanin that she wants to drive my car, shes driven it once and she drives like a nutter lol
I work in bath, dont think ive eva seen ur car around bath, u wont have seen mine either thou i think ive prob only taken it into work twice.
lol
there\'s a good chance you\'ll see it before long, as i quite often end up bringing it in. I guess we\'d be going out on the same road, towards shepton mallet? trying to take any car in to bath is a nightmare, so i can\'t blame you for not battling though in an FD!
i sometimes go that way cause the mrs lives nr west pennard which is not 2 far from shepton. when i go back to mine usually go towards bristol that cut down to wells seems to be quicker to wells. if you eva see a white berlingo van with SYSTEMAGIC written on the side then thats me lol, its the IT company i work for in bath.
lol i\'ll keep my eyes peeled! :wave
