Whoops there it goes....bloody hell!! I can remember that. As you passed the combined spray from the golf and you was like a wall of water. One of those ''oh,no'' moments.

 

Cancel that mail that was on it's way to you then!!

That video clip is great

 

I'd just like to point out that it was only a good video clip because of the excellent cameraman

My only success of the day!! (except passing the Elan - the fiver's in the post)

How could i download video footage?or could someone do it for me?Havent a clue!My mate was filming me from behind in his GT4 when i got it very sideways,his comment is quite funny!
Anybody got any pics of my old wagon with the gold wheels?cant believe how well it went yesterday,managing to stay right on the back of an STI (S..JKP)lap after lap,thats with standard 2 pot brakes too,going into duffus was a bit hairy!

Colin.

 

Col can you send me the footage via e-mail or msn and I can host it for you.

 

More than A BIT HAIRY. Near the end of the session the standing water turned into an estuary to the Forth More than one occasion I gave a girly squeal, when I thought I was heading for the gravel

Must admit I was watching you in my mirrors coming out the hairpin. Some quality moments. My bottle for the hairpin crashed after I spun it.

 

is this you Col?



Spooks

 

I dont think i have the ability on my pc to send video footage,not that clued up that way!Could post you some footage on DVD?

 

I like this one of John and Col battling it out

Dougie, superb photos mate. Gave me a chuckle. The first tractor from subaru

 

Go on get them up or send them to me and I'll host the lot!!

 

I have a good few snaps of the day including some tasty sideways action - on a modem dial up though so will try and sort it by tomorrow night for everyone

 

What he said.

Looks like i missed a good day. Nevermind, the amount of water on the track in the vid looks a bit daunting - don't think i'd have fancied that for my first 'real' track day.

The car'll be ready next time.....lol

 

What crap weather! Still it meant that the 7's had to give up due to crap visibility.
Nice to meet a few new people.

 

Dougster, YHM to the ntl account mate. Luckily I still had them on the webpop and not downloaded them to my pc, as dial-up is really freekin me off'

[rant mode on] Bt have the required amount of hits to upgrade the local exchange to ADSL, but they will not be able to do it till late 2005....WTF, I SAY AGAIN....W..T..F!!![rant mode off]

 

Most enjoyable day, i was in the standard WR blue WRX, first time on track with it and was well impressed, i could go as quick round the track in the wet as i did in the dry in my CTR. had a few hairly moments though at the bend after the chicane i thought i was going to run out of track the fence was coming closer by the second. it wasn't to bad earlier on in the morning, but come near the end of the session i thought i was wading the clyde. had a scary moment coming into duffus, there was a huge water collection just around the braking point before the bend, trying to slow down from 105mph with the ABS kicking in puts the butterflys in the stomach.

Hopefully next time it will be a little dryer, get a chance to have a natter with some of you's. anyways enjoyed, safe respecatble day with no mishaps roll on the next one.(hopefully soon).

Paul

 

Hi folks, great day pity the weather kinda messed it up though, still sure evojkp is quicker in the wet than he is in the dry had to deny the pax laps John but I don't want to get the trackday bug again

P.S. never knew those Ferraris had leather clad rollcages how

John.

 

 

Hi Gang,

Another fun day due to the KH microclimate...

I was in one the 'kit cars' , and was wondering if anyone was bored enough to take any pics of me whilst out on track...?

(Hope I wasn't holding anybody up too much - Just running the car in - Engine only had 60 miles on it at the start of the day...190 at the end ... also still bedding in the brakes...Not a lot of grip on 13" remoulds either!!!

Thanks in advance from an ex-Scooby owner!

Ross.

(Blue Caterham 7 with the stickers all over it...)

 

Ross, getting some zipped .jpgs tomorrow. Will look out for your nice little Cat'.

Seen a few rubber ducks in the footwells of some of the 'kit cars'!!

I'd rather have a sink in the back of my white wagon!!

 

Cheers!

(It's the one with 'Glenvarigill Caterham Academy 2004' splattered down the sides...Along with the mud and grass....)

Must admit, it was interesting watching the bow wave of brown water coming over my passenger sill if I was dumb enough to drift to the exit kerb at Clarks...

Going to have to drill a hole in the base of the drivers seat / floor to get rid of the swimming pool!!

Never had the same issues with my ol' STi Type R...Sheesh!

 

Does anyone have pics of me in my red fiesta?

Cheers all it was a good day!

Dave.

 

Hi, Good to hear everyone had a good time - Hope you don't mind another interloper on your BBS.

I was driving the Cobalt Blue S2 Elise. Hope I didn't hold anyone back, it was getting harder and harder to see if there was anyone behind me as the session went on, tried to go a bit faster but after aquaplaning into Duffas I gave up on that idea.

Cheers

Mac
