Any chance of a Brit /o/ meet this summer?
>>14851502
Where? When?
Who would be in charge of it?
>>14851502
If it's in the midlands, absolutely.
>>14851588
No idea, I'm just gauging interest.
>>14851593
That'd probably be for the best so we don't have North v South complaints.
>>14851502
I'd be up for this if it's within a couple of hours of London. Midlands is good
I'd be up for it as long as it didn't turn out like that /int/ meet and wasn't in London.
I'm down. This seems like a cheaper way to do things than going to Slovakia for the /dbt/ meet for me.

Anyone wanna hang out somewhere in the Midlands Tuesday? Coventry?
Who /southwales/ here?
>>14852203
Make and pitch a fun route for us to drive on.
Black Mountains Pass
>Pros: Just look at it
>Cons: It's in the middle of nowhere
>>14852345
How about this?
http://www.drivingforpleasure.co.uk/roads-and-tours/uk-road.php?s=2011-12-01-the-midlands-tick
Austin Drive Sainsburys in Coventry hosts stupid dub meets, they'd probably be thrilled to have quiet autists. Now we just need a date and someone who knows the area to lead the drive to another location.
>>14852375
Holy shit, let's do this. I'll go on baiku.
>>14852375
>Con: Wales.
As long as it's held somewhere with good public transport links, famalam.
>>14852509
Can you buy us a bottle of white ace, fags and weed, we are all 12
>>14852299
Me!
>>14852375
It's best on a Sunday, less traffic. Also try arrange a day where there's not cycling events on it
I'm moving to Manchester from Florida for work. What should I expect?
If arranged until ~20th of June i`m down
I`m leaving the UK probably forever after then

I know a professional racing driver who's willing to come down in his yellow standard (except lowering springs) Ford Puma and show you guys how to drive a proper car
>>14852908
> Yellow
> Puma
> Proper car
Yeah, no.
>>14852931
It has racing heritage you fucking slowcunt
>>14852908
>"s-s-s-stop c-calling it a f-f-fiesta..."
>>14852785
He said to manchester, not from
besides Florida's known for Cubans and pedophiles
>>14853004
Yeah, there's a reason it's called Gunchester bro
I'd be up for this. Black Mountain Pass looks epic but too far from me. Midlands is ok.
>>14852056
>/int/ meet
Heard about that lel. But I went to Brands Hatch last year with a dozen other nerds from /ovg/ and it was fun (>fun). Also met an anon who went to the London /p/ meet a while ago, that sounded gud too.
Ok so where in the Midlands? I don't know it other than the heavily urbanised bits.
>be from continental yuro third-world where no 4chan meet could ever happen
>/o/ meets are the ones that seem the least autistic
>always happen in the middle of nowhere, and in the UK (same thing)
Would somebody give a fellow /o/tist a lift from >london?
Would I be bant'd to death for having the worsst accent in the known world?
>>14853175
Do you have a motorcycle helmet?
>>14853246
No but I could grab one for cheap (if not free) in any barn near me.
>>14853264
OK. I'm in Essex. Where in London are you? If I can get to this meet, you are welcome to ride pillion.
>>14853117
>>/int/ meet
>Heard about that lel.
What happened?
>>14853283
I'm not in London at all, but if I move from my tiny shithole to the UK for a weekend, the plane or train would probably stop in London.
>>14853284
Enjoy.
>>14853291
OK, no problem. Try to fly to Stansted or Southend airport. You're not, like, 6'6 and 28 stone are you? I mean, we can still get there but it will be a total pain for me, especially if you've never ridden pillion.
>>14853297
kek. Thanks m8.
>>14853137
I like this suggestion >>14852375
>http://www.drivingforpleasure.co.uk/roads-and-tours/uk-road.php?s=2011-12-01-the-midlands-tick
>>14853318
Where am I supposed to put polackanon while I ride the twisties, pray tell? Let's just meet at a pub with seating out the front so we can sperg over our vehicles.
>>14853309
nah, I'm the lord and savior of manlets, don't worry about that
And though I've neer been on a proper ride, I've been on the back of a lot of scooters on countryside roads AND I somehow survived it
I'll keep all of that in mind if the meet ends up happening
thanks in advance m8
>>14853332
He can ride in someone's car (only if he's not scary).
>>14853297
This makes me sad to be from Newcastle.
So what's the plan then? We need a date. What you man saying to the 19th of June? The Poet & Castle, Codnor, Derbyshire? Anyone object?
>>14853318
We could stop at the home of pork pies for lunch.
>>14853366
>2 hour drive to sit in my car outside the pub, regret the decision due to crippling anxiety then drive home
Sounds like a plan!
>>14853392
I promise to talk to every single person who goes to the meet. No one will be left out.
>>14853366
Is there anywhere to drive after? Also parking?
>>14853366
3 hours for me so maybe. Might be worth it if there's a good route to drive from there
>>14853400
Drive to the A52 after and do the Midlands Tick. There are many car meets at this place so I'd imagine it's pretty good for parking.
>>14852299
>>14852559
Mother fuckers, keep an eye out for a grey AW11
>>14853414
Sounds good. Hopefully I can make time for it if it goes ahead.
So who's coming? Copy this poast and add your name. I don't want to go if there's me and one other guy lol.

Maybe even Jack?
>>14853439
I'll have to confirm later once the date is really scheduled. Though if things go really well I mmight be able to get a rustbucket and have it eurostar'd
>everybody assuming shitty yuroland = Poland
[spoiler]I'm actually from central France and trust me it's pretty much the same thing except with verveine instead of vodka[/ohwait]
>>14853467
Nope. I hardly know anyone as it is, let alone people into cars.
>>14853475
Sounds like Tom from Brecon to me
>>14853474
Book ahead and you can get the ferry for like £30, much cheaper than the chunnel.
>>14853474
bring a twingo and i'll love you forever
19th of June is too far away? It's a month's time bro. Almost to the day.
>>14853508
>what is May
>>14853519
>what is skipping a month for the meet
>>14853491
Still need to be able to cope something that could run and that isn't a tractor.
And to get my license back too.
>>14853498
Mate, Twingos are city cars, good luck finding one near Le Puy. Can't handle the paved streets and dirt tracks.
Might cope a 2cv though.
Is that cool enough?
2cv a qt
>>14852785
So... no different from now. Except for funny accents and TV licenses.
>>14853519
Isn't that after June
>>14853528
2cv would be cool. Most of us will be driving crap anyway so whatever you might bring wont look out of place.
any oldfags here?
tehblue something with the starlet?
there was a meet years ago, it went to shit three people turned up one broke down or something.
can i bring my mum's micra?
>>14853571
Only if you bring your mum with it.
>>14853528
Get over here and I'll sell you my crappy 2001 Audi A6 2.5 TDI for £700 to drive up in. Has tinted windows and the tyres are so awful that you can make it do a 4-wheel skid by trail braking.
>>14853552
he had it well organised aswell, set it up months in advance, had a facebook page for the event. Had about 20 cars down to go including myself, then we all sperged and bailed. Then was just him in his glanza a guy in his sierra that broke or something and a guy in his mums corsa.
that was the only attempt at a /o/ brit meet, it failed RIP.
This was like 3 years ago tho.
>>14853602
I kind of feel obliged to go now so we don't all look like massive aspies.
>>14853552
>>14853602
not actually an oldfag but old enough to remember this pic
>>14853635
yeah that's the meet, the sierra guys bumper fell off.
think the starlet namefag was tehbluebear or something.

>>14853678
Do it. I want to see this at any Eur/o/ meet.
>>14853635
I may come in my E30 if this meet gets enough interest, this last meet was all the way in manchester or some shit. So aslong as it's centralish i 'may' come.

>>14853863
But what time on the 19th?
>don't want the entire day to be ruined by someones nan driving at 15mph on the way to the garden centre, or bicyclists
>>14853922
Derby is close to Birmingham, but not that close.
>>14853922
We will escape on our nimble racing machines. Nice dubs.
>>14853924
I think meeting at half ten is a good compromise between autists not having time to shower and late enough that day is boring~ I'm not in charge though, I just made a pink square with some cars and words on it.
It's about 40 minutes from this pub to the start of the Midlands Tick. So, meet at half ten, everyone's there by half 11 and commence noises and crashes
>>14853922
>confused refugees try to rape miata drivers, only to find them willing.
>>14853936
So say at best well be at the start of the tick by 12. It's roughly an hour/hour and a half to do the 50 miles as long as no one breaks down/gets lost. Would be nice to have another stop at the end if any decent pubs can be found.
>>14853962
This feels like a dream, Anon. Is this really happening?
>>14853962
Checked the route. There's a few in the final stop on the map, Uppinton apparently, so any will do.

I will try my hardest to get up there and be not be a total wanker I promise.
Are we having a beer in the first pub? I want to have a beer.
>>14852203
Raid intu carpark obviously
>>14854004
I'm torn between being sensible and trying to kill the anxiety of hanging out with strangers for the first time in well over a year with morning beer.
>>14854018
I'm a normal, non-socially-awkward guy, I'll get everyone talking.
>>14854018

>>14854057
>breath tested over a beer
True story, I had 3 pints once before dropping a girl home on my motorcycle. We got pulled over as she was taking selfies of us as we were going along, I got tested, came back as under the limit. You'll be fine on one.
>>14854075
>over a beer

>>14854080
Sack off the Tick, lads, we're getting rat arsed. Who's getting the gear in?
>>14854096
My car has 6 of them, is that enough?
>>14854104
I'm picking up a motorcycle at the weekend that has six of them, Anon, and it's 20 years old.
>>14854157
My car is 28 years old, wanna fuck or something?
>>14854164
Sorta, Maybe this meet will be good for us.
>>14854171
If I can come we'll have to have a beer together
Bump for anons coming out of the pub

Never heard of anyone on 4chan so close to home. Surreal

Birminghamfag here, thinking of attending.
If I do I'll either be in my True Beater e39 530d if it's still alive by then, or whatever I've replaced it with.
Or in the unlikely event of me completing my front suspension, my S2 Avant.
Probably sperg out and bottle it though
>>14855368
If it happens obviously, which it won't because these always go tits up after the HYPE
>>14853601
Is it front wheel drive? Automatic? Where are you located? I might be interested
And are any London fags lurking?
So when and where is this?
>>14855665
Both of those things.

It's a fiesta with an engine swap and a bodykit. An OLD fiesta.
I'll be surprised if it even makes it to the meet without blowing a head gasket.
I'll consider attending if the pretentious racefag doesn't come.

>>14858359

Better than having my real name and google-able facebook account associated with you wankstains. Organise it on google+ instead, I have that 100% insulated from my real identity.
>>14858422
So you're going to use a fake name at the meet? just in case someone wants to add your irrelevant arse on facebook?
>>14858422

Put your name down on here so we can get an idea of how many people are coming. It'd also be nice to figure out who's coming from where so we can arrange to drive there together and bring anything we might want.
I also put the locations and times in from earlier in the thread, so please tell me if they're wrong.
