    Just realised the first unofficial, totally not boards oganised, drift day on the 20th of May 2014 falls on a Tuesday, a working day!
    I've only started my job two weeks, asking for a Tuesday off to go drifting (as great as that sounds) is a bit unreasonable right now.
    So I'm out. :(

    YB, sort the next one out for a weekend if at all possible!!

    My car is filthy and I've literally no time to sort it until JULY :eek:

    Ah I'd like it wet vac'd and all, and a few marks need some special love and attention.

    I'm in the same boat. I'm booking the golf into be fully valeted in the next few weeks. I just don't have the time to properly do it myself and it's quite dirty inside from the house move. So at least if it's brought back to a good level then it's easy to maintain. I've never had anything valeted before so should be good.

    I'm away for June so I dont even know it it's worth doing. The thoughts of a filthy car however pisses me off.

    No worries lads :)

    How about the following weekend? See what we can do!

    Does anyday of the week suit? Even a friday?
    Just my mate works both days most weekends so midweek suits us :(

    All I can say is, there's no greater demonstration of the interplay between horsepower and torque than driving a 1.5 turbodiesel, back-to-back with a Mazda rotary.

    I'm still in ****ing halo mode right now.

    I have €0 also but had a good interview today and they immediately scheduled an appointment to meet the manager tomorrow too... So I'm praying.

    No doubt you can come man, plenty to do such as...

    Picking up broken bits of car is always a big one.

    Trying to diagnose how to fix catastrophic engine failure and trying to fix it so we can get the rest of the day from the car is always close behind.

    Then there is throwing stuff at the car etc trying to see can you make him lose it, I found a huge "Think!" sign the last day and held it up as he got near me.
    He ended up backways into the tyre wall right beside me :D
    This place is just crazy fun :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,930 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster

    Is there someone on boards who does mobile valets?

    James IVT-S (MX Valeting) is mobile but based in Limerick. Handy for you when you're in Nenagh but not great when you're in Wickla!

    Right we'll push it out at least a week :) So that we are heading near the end of May so :)
    This makes 5 of us going now. Should we make a thread so that we don't clutter this anymore?
    Nothing cast yet but just so we get out of here?
