No, didnt think you were allowed cameras unless you had it bolted in place.

would have thought some of the Pro boys would have had a camera bolted to roll call cage. Also wondered if anybody else would be using the fabled bullet cam

Powerstation usually produce excellent videos, but these take time, and they may be less inclined having had problems with the race car...

We did have on board camera and assume therefore a video of the fateful lap, probably still being edited, not sure whether it'll be put up or not. :dunno:

Neilo,Squizz,
Check P1Stew's boot for your oil!

Watto,
Does that happen when she see's you standing there in your Y Fronts, looking like the Mr Muscle that you do.

Regards,
Shaun.

That must have been the RWD boys after the first session in the wet. I think we all just had permanent gritted teeth!

Thanks to all the organisers for a great event.

just looked at the circuit times and sector breakdowns on msttiming.com and im satisfied that the suspension did some good although the time was only just quicker than last time, i was a full second quicker in the complex (but 1 second slower in the first bit due to "mistakes")

seemed to be pulling decent speeds compared to most as well

(must have been braking late like here.....)

I had a fantastic day at his event, a little suprised if I was to be honest, as I did not here to much about it as in advertising.

Initially having access to the pit wall was a real treat for a motorsport enthusiast such as me, and what a vantage point for some pretty good photography. Like all good things, this came to an end when the Marshall's removed me just as the Time attack truly got underway too, the picture vantage points then evaperated

Managed to capture some good pics to that point guys, I posted them up in the Scoobynet WYIOC area please feel free to look

Hats off and respect to all those who competed superb day out

Me neither. And no free oil!

Bit disappointed with my dry lap times. Would have liked to have seen lap analysis for practice 2. MST Timing only has those for Practice 1.

Still I didn't come last and I did beat Shaun, but then again most people beat Shaun!

Buck

PS Anyone got any photos / video of my car please let me know. (S202, lights on, flaps out!)

no pics of yours buck but i was following you close enough to see how dirty your back bumper was.....



i do have a small video clip of me finally overtaking you though. Ill see if i can email it to mysefl as its at work. Your car was surprisingly quick down the straights, i think i now see the advantage of the 6 speed gearing from that.

According to the MST timings, I was only 2mph slower than Shaun through the speed trap in practice session 2 !
