Welcome to the North West Region!

Please feel free to contact me, if you would like to discuss, or have any ideas for any meets or events in our region. I don't need much persuasion to get something organised!

We are not exclusively limited to meets in the North West Region, we can gatecrash anyone's party, and we normally do!

The meet at Muscrat Manor (just off J21 on the M6, near Warrington), takes place every 2nd Monday in the month. This is not solely a zed owner's meet, but is largely attended by Japanese performance car enthusiasts. Muscrat Manor is a Big Steak pub, and we always push the :lol: out with their 2 for 1 offer on main meals!

There were a few meets in our region last year.

*The Dyno Day, organised by RickB :blink: , was an amazing success, which we intend to repeat in February (details to follow).
*The Lake District Drive, organised by TheMinel, was also a resounding success. We intend to continue this annual event, in his absence.
*The Fiddle & Curry, well, what can I say? It was freezing :lol: ! A 'summer' Fiddle & Curry version will replace this (it'll probably rain :teeth: ).

Hi Emma :bye:

You know me, I'll plan to come along to one of the events & probably never make it due to work, forgetting, illness, leg dropping off etc :doh: I'll probably be able to make Focus car park though B)
Whatever happens, I'll be there in spirit.

And I can't think of a better person to do the organising B) B) B)

I'm in Congleton btw, which is about 5 miles away from Emma in Biddulph!

Well I suppose 3 of us from the whole North West is a start..... :P

Thanks Guys :lol: If any more join us, I'll get a list started, but while we all live within 20 miles of each other, I'll hang fire for a while :lol:

Thanks Edd, I might have a quick word with Mark, and see if we can just merge the whole of Ireland with the North West :P

Hi All,

My name is Matt and I'm an alcoholic :drunk:
Oops; wrong site :D

We did meet briefly on Minels Lake District Drive last year. I was the one who you waved down when you were having a crafty drag outside your hotel.
I didn't stick around though as I wasn't feeling too well. :doh:

I'm planning on coming to a few of the trips this year but I can't do any Mondays so 'the Manor' is generally out for me.

The North West had the best turn-out didn't they? I'm sure there will be others along at some point.
C'mon you lot. Where are you all? :bounce:

Hello mate, I have seen you once round here, heading away from shaw and driving to oldham. I was stuck at the lights going the other way so you didnt see me. :-) I think I met you at ten of the best too. Where there was no spot left on the stand for me and I had to go and park up with the riff raff.

See...I didn't connect the two. Fairly typical. I'm pretty dense. I've seen a silver import around Elk Mill, a few times.

Yeah, I figured that. Just wondering who the import belongs to. See it quite a lot, when I go for lunch.

Hi Emma,

I'm not too far from the North West being pretty north in the Midlands, so may try and get along to one of yours.

I'm trying to muster up some interest in a Drift Day at Oulton Park on Sat 25th March. This could be a NW meet as well. What do you think.

Cheers
