has anyone been to one of the vw days at the transport research laboratorary in crowthorne?? i just remembered cos i used to do pre 17 driving lessons on the road system there and my instructor said something about it. i think its a sort opf track day/meet thing
-
A couple of my mates work at Vanaken there! :)
-
thatll be GTi International hehe...its not held there anymore...too many complaints from the neighbours i believe!
All those sexy cars they were jealous! ;D
-
and they've built on a lot of the site as well......so I think that was the main reason as well, as ALL events were not welcome anymore not just Inters.
-
haha didnt realise that was where inters was. must of been good on that course
-
It was good down at Crowthorne (I think it was a better venue IMO). And it was nice and close to me!

I used to live in bracknell, 5 min drive form there, that was before I had my GTi tho ::) but the amount of times i was at and about and i see loads of beautiful cars 8) One time I was up and about early working on my car and going to get spme parts, I see a few golfs and asked them if i they was lost, they said yep, I was in a black XR2 at the time and I said follow me 8) took them there and one chap bunged me a 5 bob note ;D
I was happy and so were they ;)
Wish i went tho, I have even been to Vanaken a few times and before they was there they was in Bracknell in warfield.
I have even take part in a study in the TRL, drink and drive test but I was on Coke ::), had to drive the sim test car, well funny a rover 214 with a big screen in front of me and do some tests on hand held PC's, took the mron off work and they gave me a ?40 chq :P I did say that i would do some more but I relocated doen to Devon with work.

I agree TRL was a better vanue for Inters. I've noticed since moving it to Brentwiters that there are alot less foreign visitors which is quite sad in my opinion :'( I very much enjoyed the Wroughton (Swindon) one apart from the parking on the field.
