^ Cracking pic's, love the six-wheeler cart!

Where were the hillclimb ones taken? I'd love to have a good look around the paddock of an event like that - looks like some fascinating stuff

Chevron, is this you at Snetterton:



I only saw one lazer(?) blue S1 Exige there. Great looking car if it is

Yeah that's me! Thanks ever so much for the compliment. I've owned the car about 3 months and it's my absolute pride and joy, never get bored of looking at it or driving it. You'll always know this particular one due to the controversial snorkels on the engine cover installed by the previous owner. Do you mind if I steal the pic? Just to keep in my rather sad little archive

Of course I don't mind mate, I'll drop you a PM with a full-res uncropped version. I didn't take many pic's of the road cars, only the ones that really caught my attention!

That's half the reason I started this thread, so those of you on the track could see pic's from us on the banks

PM received, thanks Simon. Always elicits a warm glow when you know someone likes your car. I'll give you a shout next time it's down Norfolk way. Great shots of the weekend by the way!

I wonder if anyone could 'Clear' something up for me... (sorry about that, couldn't resist..!)

What engine does this run? My curiosity is purely relating to one fact: The air intake must surely be a low pressure zone (as shown on the side pod). If this beast is running a blower or is highly tuned (i'm thinking 250bhp+) has it struggled getting air to the engine at the top end?

I'm considering this issue on my own car and any knowledge of this or similar setups would be appreciated.

Cheers. Steve

Results page from Shelsley shows 1800cc but that is all I can find on the Expose.

[CNHSS1]

its a development 340R so 99% certain its a Rover K series

Fantastic photos! Especially the ones that were taken of the Shelsley paddock.

I just noticed that the Shelsley paddock wasn't tarmac when they were taken! How old are they?

Cool!

I just had a look through my other pic's from the weekend, and I only got one more of you:



Let me know if you'd like uncropped/high res ones. They're not the best but you're welcome to them if you'd like

[Greensleeves]

Crikey, you got two photos of me and neither were on the grass or crashing. You should buy a lottery ticket!

I'd be grateful of any pics you may have or the permission to use the ones you've posted on my web site if at all possible.

I did notice several MR2's digging holes!

If you drop me a PM, I'll send you the original full sized ones to do with as you please. Just a hobby for me so use as you please
