Anyone off to knockhill tomorrow?

[CUE99T]

Planning on going up and should have some video footage on my Murci from my mates Z4M assuming he takes hi-def camera.

If I go on track it will only be cos it's dry as I don't think knockhill has much run off like some other tracks, but will get the footage up on youtube asap.

Cannae wait now!!!

I'll be arf any minute now - if my driver can get out of bed. . .

It'll only be to take photos, mind, but I'm a lens down and stuck with an 18-55 wide angle, so it should be fun!

Cheers,
Iain


ETA - can't wait to see the Murci!

Went up for a wee while today to spectate. The track was quiet. It looked a little greasy early on. A lot of different machines out today of varying degress of speed and capability, but driving manners appeared to be quite good.

I didn't intend to take too many today but as usual ending up with more than 200. Many of them were crap however here are a few that have been saved from the recycle bin.

As usual, please let me know if you want your picture removed (I don't 'shop out plates).




















A three-wheeled clio - more of which later


















Three wheels on my wagon!

Not sure but it appeared to be a well sorted machine. Completely stripped out, not sure if it is about to become a race car or not.

Its a clio sport race car, 20k from renault for a one make race series later this year. Its Knockhills owner derek butchers daughter that will be driving it i believe.
I was up there today but my lens decided its not compatible with my new camera so have 300 out of focus pics! my mate got plenty good shots though, should be up on my site soon. Murci looked stunning on track and sounded great at full chat from the pit wall.
Was having a burger at lunchtime and didnt realise Colin Mcrae was sitting about 5ft away! He was doing some rally scholarship thing on the perimeter road later on, back in an old classic subaru and giving it some serious welly round the tight track.

Colin.

The one that goes to knockhill was also the buggy they used at M P H 06 ( and crashed it!)
