Nope you're gonna be Billy-No-Mates ha ha!!

I'll see you up there for a dog-burger for breaky .... Pete is doing the afternoon session as he can't drag his arse out of bed to be there earlier.

a tad late in replying but will pop along to have a mooch around and take some photos.
On the off chance that you are checking PH before setting off up to Darlo - what time does it all start?

Top day. Your M3 sounds absolutely stunning on full song down the pit straight ! I was in "trackusratus", or commanly known as a pale yellow Pug 205... which was fine until the alternator destroyed it's self and left us with no power to the ECU

Shame we didn't have our normal camera fitted in-car. Otherwise you'd have seen your Atom coming past like a streak of lightening.

VERY VERY impressive motor cloud9

Really good to meet you properly on Sunday and many, many thanks for the session in the atom, I thoroughly enjoyed it!!! Like I said, a session with you in the atom should be available on the NHS!!

If you think a standard CSL sounds good you should hear my mate's CSL, that car has a supersprint back box on, angry angry noise!

Nickbell3,

That was standard ? Fantastic noise ! Goes well too
As a road motor I've got an AMG Merc, I contemplated bringing that... but scared of big bills. Lets just say it's not the most reliable of motors... and I've owned some unreliable sh1te !
Oh and it's an estate... and automatic (well random really) so it's not a trackday motor !

Top circuit never been to Croft before as I live 15 mins from Oulton Park, but track days are REALLY expensive there now.

Cheers,

Mark

Interesting you should state the unreliability of your AMG Merc, my colleague had a C32 estate and suffered major problems and pants dealer service. It was quick in a straight line though.

The noise of a CSL is something I never tire of, the first time I drove one 3 years ago it blew my mind. Personally cant wait for the next CSL with that induction bark attached to a V8!!!

Funnily enough....It's EXACTLY what I've got !


Now it certainly ain't a coincidence that someone else hasn't found them reliable !

Paul,

Send me an email at work and we can swap personal details. I will personally ensure Mrs. D is well looked after on Saturday, any ideas on her approximate arrival
