Thank you to CJ and a guy from the MLR for the pictures... my usual photographer was in the passenger seat

 

Hi there,
Here's the only one I took of you:



How bout that black evo eh! I got a good one of that going over!

 

Ohhhh, i like that one alot!!!

 

Full res is about 3.5mb. If you want me to email a better res one that what I posted then PM me your email.

Here's the evo I mentioned:

 

I don't suppose you got any pictures of the silver R33 Skyline at all?

 

Not if it was in the same session as you. I got these poor pics from a later session though

 

evo oops

 

the r33 looks so nice
i see quite a few of these, never the r34
wiley

 

Evo oops indeed:

 

That can be the problem with trackdays, perfectly good road car, few hours later, scrap

 

the Nismo one that we were with was pretty...excuse the thread hi-jack Gary; Fantom I don't suppose you took any pics of the sketchily driven silver wagon did you?

 

Great pics.

Hopefully next year ill take my Impreza on track, ive only ever been a passenger but even that was great fun!

When being a passenger I met the lad who drives the Skyline, he seems do do track days on a regular basis.

How did your Impreza cope with the stresses of the track?

 

Lol....not well.

The bottom end let go!!!

 

No way That's not good I thought that was your car I saw out on track but I didn't have my camera out at the time because I was busy in the pits.

Was it true that the evo rolled on the sighting laps? I didn't see it from where I was but I heard that was what happened and I also heard that someone rolled a Civic type R.

 

It was after about 6 laps i think. He was certainly driving it to its limits before it went off.

Have just done some expensive shopping this morning, so am hoping the new engine will be fitted in the next week or two.

 

From the photos I'd seen I couldn't work out how he'd done that on the sighting laps but that was what the recovery driver told us yesterday. I guess rumours get around.

Shame about the engine but it sounds like you will have it sorted soon

 

there was a white Evo in our session too that the black Evo was following, the white car overtook us after Paddock, the black Evo then over took us all at Druids and rolled on the next lap.

 

Apparently there were 7 complaints about the driving of the driver of the 5 that rolled Surely that can't be right, that's a lot of people to upset in 6 laps.

 

I know that everyone who i spoke to afterwards who'd seen the session mentioned they were expecting him to come off.

 

I think he was just a bit gung-ho and paid for it tbh...he did well to get 7 complaint when there were only 22 cars and he started fifth. I certainly didn't complain so it must have been those he was over taking towards the back...the six laps include the two sighting laps, so he did very well

 

i didnt complain
but then he never caught me

budgie

 

I know that 5-6 others definately didn't complain either, so not sure who did?

 

 

maybe it's the rumour mill again...I'm sure writing off his pride and joy will stick in his mind more than a few stern words from a marshal!!

 

Have you got the track bug now mate?

 

lol, I was a little excited post session...I want more

 

That wouldn't surprise me at all.

 

Addictive isn't it

Need an ESC day there in the near future. I know Simon57 and Bibo Boy loved it!!!

 

very...loved the descent in Paddock and climb up Hailwood

I need stronger side walls for next time though, my T1R's are DEAD

 

and me m8
i would be up for a full day

budgie
