Simple. I wanted to find out whether anybody new the DCCD would help getting the STi to behave a bit better on ice. So googled it...

To my surprise I found this website with a rather funny bunch of people.

So sneaked in.

Rest is history.

nothing complicated, just a factory, 4 on 4 off, 12 hour shifts.

12 hour shifts are a good sign. About every factory in Europe I've seen being closed to move to Asia, was because they ran 3 8h shifts. Not really competitive.

Quite strange how I found the site, I met a guy in Halfords a couple of months ago who had a WR1. We chatted for about 20 mins then went our seperate ways. A couple of weeks ago I spotted a post on Scoobynet in the was it you ? section, as the WR1 spotted was close to where I live I replied only to find out it was the guy from Halfords again :lol:
This guy was the one and only WR1 Bro :D

He's a saint is Chris :thumb:
He puts himself out for other people without thinking about it and nothing is too much trouble for him.
I've been sat down at Roger Clark's bored out of my head and either Chris or Rosy have popped down with something to eat or taken me back to theirs for a cuppa.

Agreed there Jaycee spent a few hours chatting to them on the phone,
they also came to a RR that i was at in Plymouth, while they were on holiday, they are real enthusiasts.....

Jaycee would you be the one that brought Chris's WR1 parts???

Meet Gangsta out and about around the southend area - got talking to him about cars, got invited along to a posers cruise in the summer where I met some other WR1/scooby owners and enjoyed their company so joined up. Simple as that.
