I got a couple of pics, but none of yours. Did follow you round for a few laps in the Scud, top marks for hanging the back end out ;-)

I've been dying to get it sideways since day 1 biggrin

Was a great day, good standard of driving which seems to be the norm at knockhill and it's probably one of the most chilled out circuit I've been on in terms of rules etc, they seem to apply common sense rules which is much better.

Can't wait to get back there!

Apart from the bonnet flying off the Westie it was fairly uneventful - did have to change my pants after that tho, there was a good group of us going down dufus and we were lucky not to collect each other...

Glad I missed that one! Feel sorry for the owner of the black RX that popped at the hairpin frown

The GTRs were quick, shame I didn't manage to get on a run with any of them.

Twas not me in the Westie, I was in the blue Scud, a car of two behind. Think a Lotus and something else narrowly avoided contact with the back of me as I got out the way. Would be great to see the vid, particularly if I'm in shot :-)

for all of 10 minutes I was driving the blue/white caterham that was parked right at the entrance. Had previous starting issues week before and I (stupidly) thought it was fine.

Gotcha, looks well setup the CSL, running slicks too I think? I'm normally out in the white M3 with the large rear wing, but gearbox is out at the moment. Managed about 2 hours on track in the Scud, long enough to de-laminate the front tires so went home mid afternoon.

Yes that's the one but it's been breaking gearboxes. Just finishing putting a sequential into it, fingers crossed it will hold.

I was also up with motors in the black CSL. Modus, your car sounded fantastic. Tezza - top job in getting the arse out wherever possible.

hats off though to the skyline boys who drive all the way from london in those cars and drove back.

any info on the white GTR and the damage to the front?
