I'm there in my track prepped wedge - red with yellow roll cage and quite loud (assuming it's running a V8 rather than the current V7)... First time out in it so will be nice and slow...

Me too, hopefully won't be "driving miss daisy" too much as my first one.

Have a feeling there could be a large imbalance between the equipment and my skill, but looking forward to it!

Early start tho as coming up from Reading

It's a fun track and the banked corner makes it a bit different. Was up there a few weeks ago when I had the 944 track car which is a bit more forgiving than the latest one. Will look out for a white spider on the way up from Surrey!

I was there with my blue/silver striped CAV GT40 replica. Great day,only 1 red flag right at the end of the day, the Seat touring car totalled, but driver thankfully OK. Professional photographers were there and they can be found at WWW.tracksideimage.com. Some great cars on the day including some skylines, I especially liked the beautifully presented black one with gold coloured alloys.

Just phoned and spoken to the photographer (as the website doesn't work work very well) and he assures me the pictures will be available to view on the site by the end of this week/early next week.

I have some video of my time on circuit. I will slim it down and put it up on youtube, probably tomorrow.

It was my first experiment with in car filming, so don't expect too much!

There's quite a few cars on there so maybe you'll see yourself.

It was my first experiment with both camera (which was not quite pointing straight forward) and video editing. I apologise for the fancy effects, I think I went a bit overboard with the graphics!
