Hi everyone, Well another great day has been & gone and dear old Stu did the bizz with his Sun dance again:D . All poor old Stu has to do now is perfect a dance to ensure his 'F' lets him have a full day on track :eek: . Commiserations mate :( and to those who also suffered mechanical maladies, was it my imagination or did more people seem to be wielding spanners than is the norm :confused: . But what a true test of driver and car this place is, my first time around here in anger, so to speak and I loved it :D :D . Even more so in the wet, yes we had heavy shower during the red session, but then again I'm a weirdo who has always enjoyed driving in the wet:confused: Images from the day now in the gallery, you'll be able to see them once approved by a committee member. No variety of vantage points as I only dropped one session to get them. If anybody wants any high resolution copies send me a PM with image number and a return [B]e-mail address[/B] and I'll send them over. Cheers 'til Goodwood, Martin.

[b]Thanks for photo's[/b] Hi Martin Thanks for your photos - can really see my car sitting nicely on the corners - no need to uprate the suspension any more and my children can at last have shoes - after Donnington though I feel a five speed gearbox in my midget is an essential :rolleyes: - have explained to the children that due to the world banking recession Santa won't be coming this year!!! Thanks also to the Team for organising another great day! Roger (Meredith1)

Brilliant photos Martin - missing sessions to take photos is a really great gesture and much appreciated :) I loved Donny and want to do it all over again - perhaps a bit faster next time and possibly even without the security blanket numpty decal! :D

Actually the Newbie stickers, I think, are a brilliant idea, it lets people like me know that the driver is less experienced in track driving. This means I give them a little extra space and therefore not pressurise them. Hopefully this allows you to familiarise yourself with the track and driving it without somebody on your bumper which may force you in to a mistake you wouldn't have made without the pressure. That is the trouble with track days................one is never enough :D So we look forward to welcoming you again next year :) Cheers, Martin.
