For over the last four years we have had a monthly meet at the Crooked Billet in Stanford Le Hope.

Attracting around 20-30 cars each month it is the longest running regular and best monthly meet for GTO/3000GT owners in the UK. A very friendly atmosphere will be found by all owners and new members are warmly welcomed into the fold.

A varied range of modified cars turn up each month giving GTO/3000GT owners something to look at, to perhaps add some special bits to their cars to put their own distinctive style to their own car.

The pub has a massive lit car park big enough for 100 cars and food will become available when the nights drawn in and become cold enough to make attendees stay in the warmth of the side bar we use as our own.

Directions are as follows below

The venue is THE CROOKED BILLET at STANFORD LE HOPE just off the A13….

Hey sonic

Wazza here and we are in maidstone.

Look us up www.KaiPerformance.co.uk

I will Probably be going to the meet so you can follow me up and there may be another one or two going also.

We will leave from Kai Performance and then leisurely drive to the tunnel and once at the tolls pretend we are at pod, launch hard from the barriers and cane it through the tunnel to amuse ourselves and then drive sensibly again to the meet :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
