Hiya Se foggers...

Who fancies going for a play up at Dartford 4x4 on the 31st Jan...

Address is DA1 5PN....site is open 9-5....so I reckon if we all meet at Nells Cafe on the a2 at 8.30, then trundle up there together...

Price is £25 per car...

Not sure quite what to expect as havent been there before myself, and I gather a lot of it is man made as oposed to natural terrain, but its another chance to get muddy and maybe get some ideas for our site guys...

Add your name to the list below if you are up for it....

Possibly, I have reason to be in that direction in the new year. Just need an incentive to actually get up and go.
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

Have spoken to em already mate and they are cool for us on the 31st Jan, but I need to let em know again if there is gonna be more than 10 cars coming...

Is everyone Ok with the 8.30 meet time....can make it a bit later if you want...site doesnt open till 9, and it aint a huge venue so meeting a bit later wouldnt mean we wouldnt have time to do everything, and we would get a lay-in!!!
Up to you...8.30 or say 9.30 to get to the site for 10am.. I am easy (alledgedly!) :oops:

Given I'm coming from the opposite direction, and I would assume bushwacker is too, maybe we could meet at Thurrock services and try to get a convoy from this side of the water too, and meet you there?

Thats fine by me if some of ya want to meet else where...makes sense sooner that drive the wrong way and unneccesary miles...

But i reckon you are just worried about getting "stuck" on the bridge Badboy...I can see it is a big obstacle to do... :lol: :lol: :lol:
...so if doing a convoy from that side of the water makes you happier then thats cool!!

Hmmm, interesting, veeeery interesting.
Although I can see me having to play musical tyres, depending on whether the site'd let me in with Insa Turbo's on...

Show me as a "maybe" depending on time and tyres, heh..

They are fine with insa turbo's, simex's etc.....but a no-no to gregster specials :(

jock who runs the site said that it getting chewed up with all the aggresive tyres, so they are only going to open every other weekend this year as every week is trashing the place...

So no musical tyres needed Jimbo... :dance:

Watcha Greg - Get a feeling I'm going to sit out on this one - really need to spend time on doing jobs on motors. If the weather is rubbish and Bertie is running OK, then I might contact you later in the week to see if I can get my name on as a late addition.
