I went along to this today, really enjoyed myself. Anyone else from PH went along?

I was there as well (Yellow VX220 Turbo). Really good day, well organised, cracking weather, friendly crowd, and mature driving.

Your R500 sounded phenomenal! You took my mate Mike out in it and he was raving about it.

I was there in the morning with the purple Westfield, first time out since I bought it.

Was a very enjoyable morning to say the least.

I think you need to only fill your tank half way, fuel was spraying out from your filler cap when I was following you at one point during the day.

I've got a video up of a few laps here:

Yes. I did overfill it the second time I went out. Just brimmed the tank without thinking about it.

No problem, glad you enjoyed the ride!

Thanks for the ride Rich - really enjoyed it. Having thoughts of a CaterField myself now.

Yep I was there. White Porsche 944'S' with a friend.

3 of us own the car and are looking to change it. Looking round the VX220 (very nice) and that R500 (very mad and the naughty black flag)

Glorious day, warmer than the one there in May!

Good to see you all.

Mark.

Pfft... I only got a black flag for overtaking someone who had slowed right down, pulled off the line and was indicating. I know you're not supposed to overtake after the brake boards but you do need to apply a bit of common sense to situations IMO... anyway, no harm done.

[Abe Froman]

Sorry Ed, I think you were unlucky there. Perhaps the marshalls were getting a bit board by that point.

I'll take you up on your offer of a passenger next time after seeing your video. That sync gearbox is something else!

Nice to meet you all.

My first Airfield day as well, the grey Mk2 Golf, well run, friendly and good fun.
