Hi

Were there any other PH members at Cadwell on Sunday 14/3/10?

I have been looking on line for any pics but have drawn a blank.

I have some footage that I will load you to youtube and link here shortly.

It was a good day BTW. The heavy rain held off right up till 16.30. Thankyou trackday weather godsbow

Yes, I was there!

Sorry but PH is throwing an error message when I tried to look at your profile so I don't know your name or what you were driving.

It was a bit busy on track and some people need to learn to look at the flags, let quicker cars passed, etc. etc. but still a good day.

Do you know/was it you driving the MX5 with bright green sign writing on the side?
It was being driven very well!

I left just before the downpour, caught it on the way home!

Hi

I was in the orange kit car (MNR). What were you driving?

I agree about it being busy and there were alot of people who could have pulled over a little quicker but thats the way it is.

As for flags- I got one all of my own, a black one for a naughty overtake on a friend in his vxt!

I had no idea that it was possible to lust after an E30 M3 any more than I already do. Great videos! cloud9

I'll be up at Cadwell for the first time in a few weeks time.

There is more from the same E30 here:

I had a chat with the bloke driving the e30, it has impressive spec and he competes with the car regulary. The driver was an older chap but it seems he still has it round a track!

I was there, white Clio Cup. I think I followed you round for a while (first time on the full circuit at Cadwell, only ever raced the Club circuit before).

We had misfire problems all morning, finally traced back to a loose connection on the throttle pot, only to have it throw a rear pad in the afternoon, caused by it losing a tiny piece of metal from the caliper when the split pin holding it gave way. We couldn't find the metal so we called it a day at about 3.

Still, back there a week on Friday, hopefully we'll have more luck next time.

Hi, I remember your car.
I know how it feels to have car problems at a trackday.

There doesnt seem to be many vids of the day on youtube. Come on, get them posted up people!

I wasn't driving , I'd be a mobile chicane smile I was on the spanners with the Clio Cup car mentioned above.

Sorry, but I don't remember your car, it was busy!
