Anyone going? I'll be there in my Mk1 MR2 SC with a couple of friends. Looks like a good mix so far:

My first wet trackday with the MX5 and the first with the charger. Gotta be honest, a bit nervous!

Oooh, not too much damage I hope. I watched a smart looking 350Z at the Action Day on saturday lose it coming out of camp and promptly span in front of the pit wall and went sideways into it. frown

Really good day all in (despite my bit of grass-cutting at Quarry during the first session!). Good to meet a few of you as well, and I hope the M3 is back up and running soon!

Popped up to see horny in his mx5.
Was nice to chat with a few people while the heavens opened!

I only managed a few pictures, little bit rusty with the camera, but if anyone sees their car feel free to keep the image. Will upload them over the weekend.

Wished I been able to go out. Track bug is really needing an itch.
Shame about the bmw! But see you have already made a good start sorting it.

Just seen this but would be interested to see any pics you manage to upload.
(I was there myself, in the black M3.)

Cheers, Chris

Finally gotten round to uploading my pics.

Here are the ones of your car Chris. Not great as most people had packed up so I wasnt taking too many.
















Will put the rest up once I get back.

Excellent, thank you so much for taking the time to take and upload these. biggrin
I didn't have any pictures from the track day and now I do. Plus I really like the pictures - I think that was us tiptoeing around in the rain at the end. Pretty much had the track to ourselves and it was uber slippery/fun.
Looking at my line through Quarry though is shocking - don't think I got that corner right even once.

Anywho - thanks again, great pics and really good of you to take the time.

Cheers, Chris

No problem. Would of taken more if I hadn't been at the docs in the morning.

Glad you like them, I think the first one is the best one.
The wet line round quarry is hard to find.
