novanut64 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 Top stuff, most of the hot rod boys were the ones doing the big smokey burnouts, so they cant talk dont know what you mean kev i've never done a burnout in the nova
V8Wagon Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 Get a 'ukin' grip, they weren't moaning; they love it, they just want to preserve it so we can all keep on nailing it!
V8Wagon Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 ...maybe the NSRA were moaning - haven't read that since they chucked out all the guests and made it members only - smart move!! RodsnSods site they certainly weren't moaning - I quote: I have to say, I thought those Brit Ford's looked awesome - the quality and condition was fantastic! It was great to see them there and a really good effort from the Old Skool boys for getting down there! Without question, they have their rightful place in British Cruising/Rodding history! On a proper site, we're all the same....

Lukey Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 Me lukey and his bro turned up after 2 sodding hours in traffic....i fooking hate london You loved it tim!! Pukka night, good drive home! lol
escort21 Posted April 28, 2009 Report Posted April 28, 2009 Yeah it was cool......never gonna out drag me with your puny xflow though were you
rsdaz Posted April 28, 2009 Report Posted April 28, 2009 only a couple of people were moaning on nsra there were people on there saying it was the best night for ages.wouldnt want to go there every month as the quality of the cars would dip but i reckon 2 or 3 times a year would be perfect.
Skimmer Posted April 28, 2009 Report Posted April 28, 2009 It was just one person moaning but he was never part of the Chelsea gathering back in the good old days late 70's / 80's etc and was put right by many , i wish i had been there saturday but was getting some lotus rims for the project still will be at next one if n when it happens....... It has also been mentioned on NSRA, and the oldskoolford crew were spoken about in the same light as the maxpower brigade
V8Wagon Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 Cut and pasted from Rodsnsods site: Hi, I am a resident at the Chelsea Bridge Wharf on Queenstown Road, just beside Chelsea Bridge. I've been living there for around 2 years now and I've never had a problem with the monthly car meet that goes on outside my block of flats. This past month was a different story... and so I went on the internet and found the Chelsea Cruise website. I'm assuming you're the organiser of this so I just wanted to bring this to your attention. I have contacted the wandsworth police about the car meet that happened last weekend and raised a number of issues: Traffic. Time and again you and your cruise park on both sides of the bridge and also overflow onto the pavements. Not even taking into account the fact that all the cars are parked on double yellow lines, the cruise caused alot of traffic problems on Queenstown Road that night. Noise. Bearing in mind you're all parked outside a residential building. The noise some of the cars make is very disruptive, especially when you people see it fit to floor it when you're on Queenstown Road. Burnouts and other generally childish behaviour. I didn't have to see this one to know about it. The number of tyre marks left on the bridge the morning after is evidence enough of what the cruise people did. As a member of a Jap tuner car club I understand meets and how much fun the meets can be. However, this past month has illustrated all the bad points about car meets. As I noted earlier in my email I have contacted the Wandsworth police about this as this type of behaviour on a public road right next to a huge block of residental flats is simply not acceptable. It is your responsibility when organising these things to give due consideration to those who live in the immediate surroundings, hence why I'm emailing you now. I would suggest you find a more suitable location for the meet as it's obvious that it's getting more and more popular and the bridge is not longer big enough to accomodate those who want to attend. In addition, it brings alot of disruption to the residents nearby. Kind regards -Ken Must have been a good night then...
kevmk2 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 I guess that was from the guy in the flat taking pictures from his balcony If we went somewhere else, it wouldnt be chelsea cruise now would it I guess we could all go around by the 'D' and get the burger van to follow Or open the park
Darran Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 He should think himself lucky...last saturday was small compaired to 10 years ago!!! Every other car was doing a burnout,weather it was a yank/rsturbo or mk2 escort!!
mk1super Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 Ken needs a kick in the nuts moaning faced git! What did he expect moving there, the cruise has been happeneing since back in the day, its like them morons who move next to a race tracks then moan about the the noise er doh! you moved next to a race track you pleb!
