Our events have always been open to all types of car. If we restricted it to just Subaru's, then:

a) The event would be quite boring for drivers and spectators, as nothing much would ever pass anything else.
b) There wouldn't be nearly so many cars taking part, so we would need to increase the costs quite a bit to break even.
c) Many of those taking part are/have been SIDC members in the past, and choose to drive a different car on track.

Due to the adverse weather in the coming months, we won't organise another one until around March time.

CT - guess who went mud surfing

That's not a well known lilac Honda Westie is it? Just think how much surfing one could do with a Hayabusa hehe

I did hear about it, just wish I had been there to see it, apparently his passenger (brother) described what was coming at him as a brown sunami.

Any pictures of a sludge covered driver ?

Looks sort of clean in the photo, as a waterproof jacket helps

Thanks John

Not quite as sludge covered as I had hoped but it will have to do

Well, that's the tvrolet christened First time it's completed laps of anything after the build. Pussy-footing around, but a brief check when I got home suggests nothing's broken, unscrewed, fallen off etc. Which is nice.

Just have to sort the handling before the next time as its waaaaay too twitchy for me as it is.


Hey Willie, good to see you finally out on track!

Might have to hassle you for some pax laps sometime soon

Cheers
