[pcv8]

Many thanks to VXR & Bo55 for a good day at the BTCC.

Good to see some of the old faces again as well as some new ones.

Sorry to see Yorkie leaving with a slightly bent front end.

Andy, I look forward to seeing the car back to as good as new soon.

Good to see the new 4 door saloon on the stand. I think it looks great. It certainly needs lower suspension though!

thanks Paul sorry i missed you, really wish i had missed the guy in front anyway everyone ok and that is the main thing only pride and a couple of cars dented.

looking for a body shop; insurance have asked me if i want to get a quote for them. anybody interested so i can pass on to the insurance, the car will need collecting.

Or can anyone recomend somewhere near Stafford?

Drove the car home only the aircon condenser blown. Many thanks to Roger for stopping to see if he could help.

The car appears to have gone into "safe mode" no power above 2k revs but that got me home.

Yeah thanks to all those involved, I had a great day and it was good to see VX-Racing doing so well.

It was nice to put names to faces too.

Sorry about your incident yorkie, you must be gutted. I hope it gets fixed quickly.

Thanks Boss and Vauxhall for another great day. Yorkie, hope everything gets sorted quickly for you.
Cheers, Neil.

Ditto all the above. what a fantastic day out. even the mrs loved it! Will def be at the next one. After hearing some of your cars, i've got my list already drawn up for santa...! Diffs, wheels, brakes, zorts... or maybe just a VXR500 instead..! A great day only saddened to see 2 monaros getting a little too intimate with each other!!!

Thanks again to Bo55 and all at Vaux.

Yorkie, glad everyone was safe mate. Felt sick as we drove by, we were quite a few cars behind and wondered why cars were driving around something!! Hope it all gets repaired soon and quickly

[BO55 VXR]

Good turn out guys....thanks....sorry about the lanyards and stuff, wasn't expecting what I got from Vauxhall, next time we should nail the problem.

Yorkkie, sent you a mail, hope you are OK

Had a great run back with Mose and a silver Monaro (forgot user name alread, doh!), we were clearing space in lane 3 for each other so we could give it a blast....and thanks for the detour around J10....

Anyway, keep your eyes open for the next one....

Elderly couple in the silver Sharan wagged their fingers as we wnt by....sorry

Once again many thanks to BO55 and Vauxhall for an excellent day out. Chris, I really appreciate all the effort you put in to make these events run so smoothly.

Good to see the VXR team on the podium and a day of some fine racing.

Sorry to see Yorkkie testing out the crumple zones but glad all were ok. Hope its fixed soon. The pride may take a little longer to heal.

Just to echo what everone else has said thanks Boss and Vauxhall for well organised day from the assembly point to the name cards and lanyards the drivers lounge was a nice touch as well. My first time at the Rock... what a good circuit for viewing and getting in and out.

Rockingham is almost perfect for viewing, from one of the stands there was only about 200 metres or so that you couldn't see. Certainly a lot better than Silverstone!

Yorkkie - sorry to see what happened, hopefully you will get it fixed soon.

Many thanks to B055 and co for organising it. Roll on Donnington......

[well_fans]

cheers to both Chris and Vauxhall for another excellent day out. Great circuit for viewing the races and some decent racing as well - for those that missed it the last race especially had plenty overtaking in the midfield postions as the Vectras fought to regain some places. Pity our "display" area was so far from the main gates so that there was no real passing traffic - missed opportunity for brand promotion there. Roll on Donnington.
