Afternoon all. Monday was a fantastic day - it's strange to see Bedford bathed in sunshine for once! I had a lot of fun - first outing in my car - and it was good to see so many different cars there - the White Evo and 3 series were unbelievably quick!

Bit of queuing in the morning but that soon worked itself out.

BTW - which cars were you all in (I was in the White 997 GT3)?

Was that the White GT3 that went home on the back of a flatbed???

Yep, I picked up a slow puncture on a front tyre in the afternoon. No spare tyre provided with the car so it was calling the nice chaps at Porsche-assist or putting that foam gunk into the wheel and spoiling it.

Don't remember seeing that one. The Silver Ginetta on the other hand was my favourite car of the day by miles, it looked ace

Yeah taken by me, on a cheapo camera hence the poor quality of some......

That Silver Cayman was pretty rapid, he came past me at one point, I tried to keep up but couldn't, but then thats not saying alot

ETA - Your GT3 looked awesome, I had just put the camera away when you spun on the pit straight so missed getting a pic of that.

Was it the Z4M or the Z3M coupe you were in?? I've got a few of each I think, so I'll dig them out.

As for the others, you ask and shall receive! If you want larger versions of any of them, just let us know:

MrDerp - many thanks, these are wonderful pictures!!

Can't agree more.

MrDerp, are these pics small enough files to email?
