ACE Cafe Monday 8th March

[Darrell]

Ace cafe, don't taunt me guys.

I lived not far from there and frequently visited on my GSXR 600 on a Sunday.
They fry-ups to die for (you probably will eventually) and some great bands.

You lucky lot

You lucky lot

I would not say the same if it comes to the weather

 

[James Rothwell]

I may well come up!
I was going to off greenlaning later with some friends but if I crash his Discovery sooner rather than later I shall head up and look at some fancy cars and eat some tasty food with you guys.

If I do make it, I'm rotund and not bald.... Doesn't really narrow it down, and I'll be in the S500 J555 JKR.

Hasn't stopped raining here for 2 days and more to come

 

[Dee-124CAB]

Well im up for it, if the weather is reasonable (dry) & we can get enough of us together from the forum, count me in....

HA! How random! I was there this afternoon after picking up the Audi from Buckinghamshire - fancied a detour on the way and my friend I were hungry. I mentioned the Ace Cafe was somewhere on the road, but quite a way away. 5 mins later, we arrive at the right North Circular junction!

Sadly we couldn't hang around until the evening.

Just back, unfortunately I'm an idiot and didn't take my camera and for some reason Ace Cafe still haven't sprung for a couple of light bulbs thus rendering my iPhone useless - which is a shame, because that was the nicest collection of metal (and CF) I've seen for a while, even over the usual PH meets.

Baccal hunted me down and there was a certain E36 lurking there too, as well as my dream E55 complete with the magical 600bhp...

If I drew up a list of my 20-car dream garage, I think that car park had about 50% of it covered... NSX, Integra R, Camaro, Shelby GTR, Murcie SV? 2 of them... RUF, Diablo, Escort Cossie, gurgle gurgle...

Was just waiting for a Zonda R, CGT, a Speed 12 and an F40, then I could have loaded up the transporter and would be halfway to Russia by now

Highly, highly recommended.

[verysideways]

I was chained to my laptop and a sea of faces who came by to visit me for most of the evening.
In future, FYI, i am usually sat by the projector at the far end of the café - car movies on the projector and my with a laptop, printer, and credit card machine. But there's often a queue to speak to me, no idea why!?!?

 

[Gridlock]

Ah, in that case I sat opposite you munching a cheeseburger

Lopes, that inlet manifold is magnificent

 

[d w124]

Lopes, that inlet manifold is magnificent

It should do,when you pay around 3000usd for it

 

[Gridlock]

Aye, art's never cheap

Nothing but the best for my baby!

Aye, art's never cheap

Gridlock, was that you I was talking too?

 

[Gridlock]

I'm afraid it was. I also saw what you tried to do to that nice man's SV...

LOL, Thats H R Owens/Lamborghini press car, (also in my avatar) I told then about the event and made them come.

So that was you going sideways when you left? Your car sounds nice!

 

[Gridlock]

Don't know what you mean! I think my passenger knocked the ESP switch when he went for the seat heat...

Thanks, I don't know what AMG were thinking when they built the C43 but they put one too many silencers on it as standard

Next time I'll bring the Golf, you can hear what a proper supercharger sounds like

 

[buccal]

I can't believe i forgot to ask you for a listen

but then you woke the dead on the way out

 

[Gridlock]

Oops.. It's not very loud inside the car, sometimes forget it's not subtle from the outside..

 

[buccal]

Just teasing it sounds lovely, perfect balance really. Will get a proper look at the next GTG sometime. Reckon i'm going to do the same.

 

[Gridlock]

Definitely hitting the next GTG, and will probably do more than just snow foam it quickly after work for that too
