Default Blyton - The Thanks, The pictures, The Chatter.....

Big thank you to everyone who came along to make this probably the best yet....

Apart from one or two 'minor incidents', I'm pleased it was an accident free day...

Though two sets of keys locked inside vehicles did make the day interesting... well done to the AA on both occasions...

Dave, thanks for the continued organisation and a thank you to all those who mucked in helping set up and clear down...

How much fun was that run home good show to the FTO driver for getting stuck in too...

Thanks again everyone.... I look forward to the pictures!!

I'd like to say a big thankyou to the ladies (and the (very) odd gent) whom fed and watered us all day and also to the WYIOC kids whom helped out with track access And Alan, who's always there but never goes on track due to his tireless enthusiasm making things run well for everyone (and the fact that he's a wuss ).

Many thanks to all who came, it's the people who make the day

Default Thanks !

My disclaimer is my ****-Li's on the front understeered....
My bald Yoko's on the rear slid....

But neither consistently enough to know whether I was coming or going !

Thanks to Gary for the ride in the sorted Fab VRS, so quick and very sorted chassis.... And apologies to Alistair (?) for the rather rapid 360..... and tyre attack !

Thanks to the crew for keeping us fed and watered....

Thanks again to Corradoboy... and team.

Shame about the helmets...

DunxC (Sleepy !)

P.S. I think my rear ARB needs softening for next time !

The organisation of this day was nothing more than brilliant!! Track time for so many was superb! the kids out in the rain handing out the coat hangers for track time ( "coathangers" you know what I mean!) and would not come in even when asked!!!

The burger/Tea ladies .....sterling Job!!

I have spent the day with the best car club in west yorks!!!

Thankyou all!!!!

Curry and a bottle of red to finish a cracking day.

The helmets were found dunx, Al had put them in his car to take back to the Rallydrive building, he was on his way there from the track when Dave came back to ask.

Thanks for the ride out Steve

First corner after the chicane, the picture is reversed.

It looks like a mid summer track day in that pic too

Huge thanks to Dave and Alan for organising another great day, and Dave for showing me his lines, and also everyone else involved

Had a great day in the Metro today, and having seen the pic above, I'm amazed at the amount of body roll!

If anyone has any photos of me in hi-res or you're not hosing them because you took too many, would it be possible to e-mail me them, and I'd be happy to pay for your time, both taking them and mailing them to me, TIA

Sorry I went early and didn't say bye to everyone

I can only echo what has been said - a GREAT day out!!

The pug got some more pasting and came home running and well so im chuffed to bits (with lots of help from James ).

The highlight had to be going round with sticky in the wet near the end of the day in his "Old faithful" pug. Me and Andy can only say one thing - you and that pug were made for each other, the pug just goes and goes and enjoys the punishment and well........ Sticky......... we were both most impressed with the ride, it was awsome!

The food was fab and the company even better.

Really glad Mick, Jackie & kids could make it

Thanks to the organisers and all who made the day go brill, cant wait till the next one.

Ellie
