My 2nd SS and another brilliant day out. Massive thanks to PH and Silverstone for sorting it out smile Some truly awesome cars in attendance and plenty of action of track.

What a joy it was to see the CGT, 458S and 991 RS on track together, 3 cars that certainly would live in my lotto win garage! Oh and the EsCos and the red Cayman GTS, you 2 looked very quick! As a previous owner of a Series 1 RST I was gutted to see that pack up :'(

My friend had a couple of sessions on track but it wasn't until the afternoon. We had some fun though 😅

Iv got 3 in car vids (from the brown 1 series bm) and a handful of shorter vids from the pit wall. They should show up linked to these but if not I can post them separately if anyone wants to see them 👍

Cheers and roll on the next SS local enough to attend 😎😎😎😎

Many thanks for another great SS Pistonheads and Silverstone. Really looking forward to Ally Pally in a week or so. Did anyone get any pictures of my GT6?

Not at all, I was just having some fun on a Sunday morning, not going for a lap record, LOL!! No complaints from me about anyone in the 11:20 session smile

Did you manage to get the Blue Impreza on camera? Not sure if we crossed paths...
Here's my video from the 10.45 novice session. On board blue Focus ST. https://youtu.be/k33zSXZL6FY

Apologies to white evo for overtaking twice close to corner.
Hahaha, think i've seen why my tyres were so bad by the end! ~9m into that video you seem to be behind me!

That silver Civic Type R was probably the loudest car I heard on track
Which Civic was this - not my silver jap saloon?

Supercharged aswell, it's surprising how fast a charged EP3 is.

Here's my footage of the 11:20 session, started behind the silver Civic and Blue Mini Conv and up to 3:20 is behind the pace car. First time on track at Silverstone so first few laps were just getting to know the corners, then managed to pick it up a bit more. I thought the driving standards were generally good, especially from the faster cars, although the bunching was quite bad at times which I thought made people stretch a tad too deep into the braking zones when overtaking.

Yeah that's the one, silver EP3, 'Mugen' reg. plate I think. We were impressed watching it, at the very least it had the speed to backup the sound!

Not much to the engine just air filter and map and the dark blue one has a full exhaust system
It's mostly suspension mods

Great morning out cheers, my daughter and I enjoyed the chilled out atmosphere and of course all the great cars that turned up. Also, cheers for the mention of my Crx, glad to see it got noticed in amongst all the exotica.

My daughters favourite was the old 356 coupe, looked like it had had a good life smile

I was parked neat your CRX - an absolute minter you have there by the looks of it! Do you have a build thread or anything - I've always had a massive soft spot for the CRX.
