Prescott Revival,Sun 9 August 2015

[yoshisdad]

Hi.
A couple of years ago, some PHers met in Morrisons carpark in Cribbs Causeway and drove up in a convoy to the Revival at Prescott Hill climb.
Wondered if anyone fancied doing it this year too?

[the chav]

I will be up for it weather depending

Though I don't have anything exciting to blast up the hill this year
Well I could always take the boring bora up the hill

[the chav]

Im guessing people haven't seen this thread or just not interested

For people that have never been it's a good day out and if the sun is shining even better

It's free too!!
Car guys and gals bring their lovely motors along and some of them kindly drive up the hill with you as a passenger if you pay a small fee which goes to a charity (I think)

[the chav]

And if you're feeling brave enough I may let some of you sit shotgun in the boring bora it will be the slowest ever run up the hill ever
Chances of crashing .NIL
Chances of excitement .NIL
Chances of taking in the scenery .PLENTY
Sorry haven't got anything exciting this year to bring along

Il be game for this.

It's a great day. Last year I must have done 10 runs in the Evora taking passengers up the hill in the rain!

Almost certainly going this year too as i only live ten mins away.

All the money goes to charity. It's not a competitive event do you don't need to cane your car, and don't need helmets. Marshalling is less than at competitive events.

Would anyone be interested at meeting up in the morning to convoy up
I don't think we are going to get many this year

But I think ill get a few tickets for passenger runs

Does anyone no how to do one of them list things

[the chav]

Shall we meet at morrisons cribbs @8am ready to leave at 8.20 that should get us to prescott for about 9.30 the hill opens at 10am

We can change the meeting time if you prefer to get there earlier

[yoshisdad]

8 sounds fine!

Guys I will be attending again this year in my mx5. I had a great time last year

I don't think I will be able to join the convoy as I need to change the oil and plugs first thing Sunday morning which I will do at my parents house near Berkley

Come and say hi, I'm in a green mk1 mx5. It's got a ph sticker on the back but it's hard to see as it kind of blends into the dark bodywork !

ok no problem we shall see you there .i will be in the boring bora diesel (as i sold my fun car) and yes i will take on the hill though its going to be a smokey slow drive
if you are driving the hill will you be taking passengers .As ill be with the new gf and her 9 yr old boy neither of witch have ever been or no wot to expect but im sure a thrilling ride up the hill will excite them

i have purchased 2 tickets and shall be parked in the paddock area

[Baskey]

Yes mate I will be doing a couple of runs

If you want me to do a passenger ride just give me a shout. It's only a slow mx5 but it's low, quite loud and with the roof down can be quite fun at sensible speeds.

I need to do a few bits to it before I go, if anything goes wrong and I can't bring it I will be in one of my other cars (old green impreza turbo wagon or a 70s mg b roadster)

[the chav]

cool i always buy more tickets on the day

last year i think i did about 6\7 runs up the hill though that was in the r34 some how i think 2 runs is enough in a diesel car

[Baskey]

Yea I'm just buying mine on the day.

Also I seem to recall an r34 struggling for traction off the line in the wet last year

[the chav]

yes that would of been me

trying to put down 346 bhp through the back wheels in the wet with a heavy right foot .Though the tyres didnt help much if you have ever used maxxis maz1 tyres you will no even the smallest of wet patches is enough to loose grip
