I've been busily searching the net for any pictures taken at last weekend's Trax show - and more importantly any shots of the 09:40 session which involved all of the Corvettes. The shots taken on site were a bit pricey so I hastily walked away but now regret it as I've got no pics of me squealing my way round the GP circuit.

A lot of other club forums have hundreds of pics of the display cars and a few of the track sessions but I've seen zero Corvettes so far.

If anybody took some pictures, knows who the company which were on site or has seen some Vette shots on another website can you let me know.

I'll have a look if some of the ClioTrophy guys got any shots of you lot - was a bit bizarre to see a couple of lines of Corvettes and the BossCerbera tucked away in the corner or a sea of hatchbacks and fibreglass "creations"!

Cheers! The Corsa forum has literally hundreds of pictures which I went through last night. There are some decent track shots out there so somebody must have taken some of the Vettes.

I was sat next to the Cerbera waiting to go out on track and the noise of the thing was absolutely phenomenal! Think he managed to lap me just the once at pretty much the same place as Nige did in his C5-R.

There was a photographer sat at the entrance getting pictures as you came under the 'Silverstone' sign, seen or heard nothing of these since. Back there this weekend for Britcar24 so might nip into the office and see if they know anything.

How come the Corvettes came down to Trax then? - nice to see a few proper cars there (in addition to the awesome Clio Trophies of course )

I didn't get any photos of you all parked up as most of you disappeared off to your track session before I had the chance - got a few piccies of the white Dodge that was parked up close by though.

It's down to Vetteheadracer who arranged it through the PH site and the Corvette Club. Gives us all a chance to drive the GP track aswell without the expense of having a full day on the circuit. My poor old car certainly isn't designed for tracks and the 15 minute blast was enough for the tyres.

Vette_1978, I've emailed you the full sized version of the image from my rapidpants site.

If anyone else wants any of them just let me know and I'll sort them out.
