2011 Sports Maserati Christmas meet. Weekend of Saturday 10th December.

[YHTM]

A big thank you from me to Miles for organising the weekend and thanks for those who I met for being welcoming and friendly to a new boy. Unfortunately I was only able to attend the karting and Ace. Thanks also to Loz and Kaz who met me 30 seconds before we became team 7! Following his failed attempt to disorient the leaders with the blown engine cloud, Loz was catching the pack in the final minutes, unfortunately the race then turned into Kamikaze karting and it was ended with a minute to go to prevent major damage! We finished 4th in the event but as we were the top team of three (lost laps due to more changeovers) we considered ourselves as the overall winners!

Why not borrow the Stigs helmet next time...........or indeed join us on the Monte Carlo or bust adventure as it will soon become......theres a TV programme in there somewheres!!!

I did bring a helmet Frank, but its a bit modern. I wont make that mistake again!! As for france, I suspect the French Rossers would take one look at my car, and invent a whole new book of traffic offences.

I'd like to echo all the others comments, it was a fantastic day, followed by a fantastic night (what I remember of it)...

 

[dem maser]

a few hairy moments in the smoking area.....i remember some idiot drinking my pint after telling him its mine, then wanting to shake me hand which i refused.....

some idiots there on the night, overall great night cant wait for the next one...maybe a summer night?? with bbq??

 

[conaero]

BBQ is a great call, how about at Chateux Urby????

Mentioning his name reminds me of something Dem was ribbing him about at the hotel bar....he want to get a F612 and Dem told him we would call him UrbanScag, hilarious!

Could have been worse, he could have plied you with Rohypnol and had his wicked way with you!

 

[dem maser]

Here are the only pics I took. I always do this, plan to document the whole day with loads of pics and once I get my first sniff of the wobbly water, I forget.

[dem maser]

love the car...i sat in it, i started it....promises of driving it however never came true....

must be the alcohol talking hahahahahaha

 

[maserati]

I suppose the B***Y pigeon hasn't got a word to say for himself........?!


P

As a matter of fact I have. I spent ages outside Dems hotel room on Sunday morning in full bird song. There was no answer so I flew up to the second floor and I had much more success with Matt. I heard the groans of complaint and then a door opened and he appeared. Then I think he said 'go away' or something like that but in the vernacular..... It was lush! He he

 

[2b1ask1]

Way too criptic; I'm guessing you just had to be there.....
