VR40 0 Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Well UD wasn't happeing for me this year! After 3 weeks of careful planning and preperation it all went wrong at the last minute!I spent 11 hours yesterday cleaning it with 3 friends... it looked awesome!Unfortunately on route this morning i collided with a major pothole and it ripped a hole in my sump causing all my oil to piss out everywhere! :@ I AM NOT HAPPY!! I'm sorry for letting the club down like this at the last minute, I hope they find someone to take my place on the stand.I hope you all get plenty of pictures for me! Have a great day!Greg Link to post Share on other sites

I'll get 'em on and post some pics later in the week.I got ther about 9:20 and the car park queue was only back to the Holiday Inn. Went outside later and it was monster.Where next for UD; The NEC?Congrats to the winners of the VR6OC trophies. Bet Earwig is well happy, especially with the attention the car was getting.All in all an ace start to the season. Even saw another J reg VR6, only the 2nd I've seen in the flesh/metal.

antera309 3 Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 What a nightmare mate. Good to hear the engine didn't run dry - you should be OK once you get a new sump bolted on there. UD was OK, but there will be plenty more shows. See you at GTI Spring Festival! Link to post Share on other sites
