Default Time Attack @ Sliverstone.

Headed down to watch today with the missus, weather was far from perfect with the track being wet from the start of the day and then drying briefly and then returning wet finally. Shame not to see Andy Forrest or Simon Norris but Olly Clark and the GS2 made it there. Olly took it steady for the early practice session and then In the 2nd with a dry line appearing started to turn it up, and bloody hell what a car! Was sat in the brooklands stand watching it fly down the straight to then corner as flat as you like carrying plenty of speed, and this was all still on treaded tires on a drying track. Sadly towards the end of quali something went bang and that was it for the day. Can't wait to see it on slicks on a dry track

Didn't take any pics sadly but I'm sure others did and will post up. Quite a few impreza's in the paddock parking area which looked nice, anyone here? We were in our sliver hatch STI.

Here's to the next round

P.s Sorry I didn't see you to say bye Rob, good catching up though and hopefully see you and the next meet, if not at TOTB

I was working on the International circuit but did pop over at lunch time for a quick shufty.

My Impreza was parked in front of the Med Centre.

Yeah saw earlier on the time attack facebook page. To read they only had the boost set halfway is alarming considering the speed it was achieving that day.
