Cool kids?? How very 90's

I am a 90's child, remember dear

Well that was an epic weekend.

I can only really second what has been posted here and elsewhere. A great turnout this year with the regulars and some new faces joining us. It was great to see everyone again and meet some new people.

As always the weekend had it's unique parts which are likely to never be repeated again but boy, did we laugh at times.

The stand looked amazing and we have to, once again, thank Honda UK and their support team from KCS for providing us with a level of equipment we wouldn't be able to afford. That support allowed is to provide the noodle bar, lighting, shirts and other bits and bobs which really helped elevate our stand above our neighbors. I don't think anyone else got near the level of lighting we did this year.

We'll get a gallery thread going to share the pictures. For the time being click here to see the stand on Thursday night (more coming soon).

JAE Gallery.

Best weekend ever! [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

[Sedge]

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself; I hope you'll join us again next year for some more fun in a field

[Sparky47]

I'll be booking the time off work as soon as it's announced [smilie=karls_thumb.gif] I'll be coming up earlier on the Thursday next year too

[JenCTR]

Depending on Convoys etc next year I want to make it down even earlier than I managed this year! I was too tired on the Thursday, and the Thursday seems to be getting bigger every year.

Glad you enjoyed yourself! Spread the word.

I've already said all that needs to be said on FB really but I do appreciate all the help from Honda, KCS and everyone from CTRO who helps behind the scenes. It's changed days since 2009/2010 when marquees/furniture needed to be hired; generators begged, borrowed or stolen; bbqs built on site and makeshift sound systems cobbled together! The stand this year was a really professional affair and I'm sure some of our fellow JAEers were pretty envious. I know several people from other clubs commented to me about how good it all looked.

Roll on 2015!

[Sparky47]

I'm looking at getting down for around 10-11 on the Thursday, set the tent up and help with the stand etc and then get on it :bigthumb:

[Sedge]

This year 8 to noon was setup by contractors only with the public being allowed in after noon.

Had a superb weekend, just wanted to say thankyou for a great weekend away from reality. The stand was incredible, my friend on the gtroc was shocked at how good it was. Food was fantastic aswell.

[Cat]

Really glad the "newbies" to the CTRO stand enjoyed themselves.

It's always good to see new faces so next year persuade all your Honda owning friends to come along too.

I've just been working out next years holiday to juggle ctro events and diving. I've already mentally allowed for 2 days holiday so I can do the Thursday - Sunday at JAE and 2 days for a 'ring trip..... something to do with Sedge driving the new type r or something.....

I've already in my head booked 22 out of my 26 days holiday. This is not going to end well.

[Sparky47]

Next year I'll be able to wash my car in peace knowing I won't be fraped then...... :bad-words: first weekend to get booked off next year will be JAE along with maybe Le Mans and a Scottish road trip if it goes ahead [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

[jhollyyox]

Everyone come to mimms!

[Scottish Type-R]

Dam, sounds like you all had a great time and I missed it . But seriously glad it went well and was a great weekend. :WOOT

Wow, Sedge is now a CTRO Site admin? I better behave then Sedge and not diss FN2s Oh Sedge have to say though I really like the Malmo Red FN2 type R with black rage alloys. Does look awesome

Well guys been having a few issues with my CTR. Had the O2 sensor replaced last week. The code I been getting is P0172 System too Rich Bank 1.

Anyway I switched back to premium unleaded 95RON. Cars rely to much on electronics these days lol.

Sedge are you down to test the new Type R next year? I want to test drive a Jazz type R lol how crazy would that be if they brought one out lol.

All the best everyone.

[Sedge]

Dam, sounds like you all had a great time and I missed it . But seriously glad it went well and was a great weekend.

It was really good, next year make sure you come!

Sedge are you down to test the new Type R next year?

I am indeed. Honda EU are hopefully, and very kindly, flying me out to the press launch which should include some track time.

I want to test drive a Jazz type R lol how crazy would that be if they brought one out lol.

There was one a JAE a couple of years back, the Honda Jizz; a K20 Jazz with various other upgrades including the brakes from an older M5. 240 HP I think.

Gerry Brady's black K20 Jizz? That was the year I had the choice of driving that and his K24 EG down, and I brought the EG.

Jazz was just silly

[Sedge]

That sounds about right. You should have taken the Jizz.

[JenCTR]

God no. Bogan brought the Jizz down. That EG was phenomenal. One of the best cars I've ever driven. Going back to my GTi after a weekend of that was heartbreaking.




Have to see if I can find one of the Jizz.
