I'm a newbie to track days and have only had the car a month (my first RWD too) so apologies if I was getting in anyone's way :eek:

Oh an big thanks to Monkfish (whose name I know from JapCarsCymru...) and Elaine for taking those pictures. :rockon:

Oh yes im planning more for this year.
Im not booked on yet, but im heading down with a Megabusa, but ill possibly take my own car just incase..... :D

Rory, are you planning on doing any KH trackdays this year?

You booked on for the SIDC day on sat?

The travelling was just travelling! lol
Its never fun, especially when max was around 85mph, then it got interesting :rolleyes:

Yep was good to have a quick chat more than anything, faces to names is always better than nothing.
You will have to come up at somepoint, i can assure you Knockhill will put a smile on your face ;)

As for the CRX, im impressed with how well it never got passed all day (unless he was on a cool down lap)
Will go a tad bit better shortly though ;)

Anytime Rory

Hope you enjoyed the long distance travelled and i did speak to you breifly but hopefully we will come up to knockhill and have a go round there, never got chance to have a battle with the CRX though which was a shame sounded pretty mean though.

Pleasure finally putting faces to the names on the forum and also nice meeting the lads from ireland although some were very busy with the cars had a good chat with afew hope you all got home safe though!

One day we will come over and check out your tracks thats for sure!

As for the travelling, if i think it will be a good day out, ill travel anywhere.
Travelling doesnt phase me at all, as they say, you only live once, you had better make full use of it :)

To be honest, I think it was the fact my road suspension was much softer on the bumps, so where Lewis would loose traction on that surface I was away!

I was pushing quite hard open pitlane though.

Thanks for the comments peeps. :)

I think I've managed to get at least a couple of photos of everyones car on track. I was literally the first out on track in the red session in the morning, then grabbed my camera and started taking pictures during the rest of the sessions. I deliberately sat out the second red session to be sure I got pictures of those in that session. I also did a few from the open pit session although I didn't get many done as I managed to spend a fair amount of time out on track. Thankfully The Bitch behaved save for some oil leaking under pressure from (what I suspect) is the rocker cover, so all in all, I'm happy.

Kudos again to Sam for organising the whole thing. :cool:

As for the pictures, if anyone wants any copies I can send you some watermarked ones suitable for desktop use (probably around 1152 x 864, full size are 3000 x 2000 :D). Prints are also available in a large variety of sizes and prices are on my website. I can get a shitload more than is listed, I've just been lacking time and arsed in getting it updated. Drop me a PM if you have any queries.

lol - did you go and watch the rugby ??
all get home alright??
i dont think ted was impressed on friday night when we got told to drink up and leave the premises, he still had a full pint LOL

yea we watched the rugby in brigdend cant remember too much of it though

we made it home eventually we had a late run for the boat but we made it ok

i wasnt too impressed either when they told us to leave i only had 2 pints :-(, closing a bar at 11 when it was packed is crazy!!!

800 miles travelled on the road and 10 hours spent on boats, im well impressed that my gt survived without a single fault i may have to go out on track next time

Was an epic day out! I dont think as many turned up out of the list of names but thats to be expected!

Still thoroughly enjoyed myself and a big thanks to Dane and Pav for taking me out for a spin, was an awsome experience! Just wish my exhaust wasnt blowing and I didnt have a cracked brake disc, otherwise I would of been out!!

Will 100% have my name down for the next one :)

Was great to finally meet some of the TGTT lot and put names to faces and also see some tasty motors i the flesh :)

Was impressed with everyone on the track to be honest, I thik Adam (white SR) was doing pretty damn well catching everyone else on the brakes and through the bends!!

Roll on the next one :D
