Planning to pop over for a watch if the weathers nice.

[mmm-five]

I haven't got one planned until the November Oulton one.

I'd love to do it, especially as there won't be another available there for quite a while, but I'm funds-limited at the moment

[JonyPI]

ill be there in me 92 325i, wont be the quickest thing on track but i plan have some bloody good fun and will be good for comparison when iv done a few mods and got the manual box in it!

[pdw]

I'll be there in my M Coupe. Weather forecast looks a bit mixed... could be interesting.

I'll be there in my e46 m3, cant wait!!

[JonyPI]

well guys, im only about 5mins away from track, it is raining on and off but it looks like it isnt gunna be half as bad as forcasted a couple of days ago, so expect a greasy track to start with and should soon dry out!

[M5Player]

See you tomorrow chaps - i'm in a silver e28 M5, garage 13 if you want to say Hi!

[raceboy]

Fantastic weather.

Heres a few pics from the day...... Happy Snaps

I don't think you were brakeing in the E28, the rims were mirror clean everytime I walked past, either that or I need your secret formula for brakedust repellent wheel cleaner....

fantastic weather! was abit greasy on trackl to start with specialy fater the early M5 dumped its coolant all over gerrards!

i had a few incidents with my wibbly wobbly original 17yr old supension :lol: had one early one got cought out being off line letting cars past/or overtaking i forget which, and got it pretty sideways and just didnt quite catch it despite hangin on with pretty much full opo lock for quite a while!

was a fantastic day anyway with out any major incidents and i was pretty happy to keep pace with some cars much better than mine, and the 325 performed flawlessly, i was worried the gearbox may blow up but still goes strong! i think im gunna treat her to some new shocks and springs though!

thanks again to Nick and everyone involved in organising it! was a great day!

Had a great day. Managed to eat through about 95 litres of squirt by 3:30pm! Car ran faultlessly and suited the circuit really well.

Anyone get any pics of old Baggy Pussy? Cheers
