Nice pics!
Glad you had a great day out.
I couldn't get there as SWMBO was too ill to leave (not that I would have anyway).
Maybe next time.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Chris, love the picts of the Sprint-R.
Carbon Mods sent me a "test" set of csr wings this week to try. They fit, so I am getting a second pair next week.
They look cool on your car!
All I need is the rear wing! Where did you get yours!

Do most of you tow your cars to trackdays or drive them there?

The quality of the driving was pathetic... I had a similar incident with the ALFA 15*on the corkscrew turn, the driver tried to outbrake me into it,
so he's got 3.2 with Turbo but even in Ireland surely they understand trackday rules. I was SO angry I sought him out in the Carpark... I was SO
close to nutting him
Took me ages to calm down... the only retribution I had was returning the favour on the subsequent lap, it was getting very lairy towards the end of
the day, which spoiled it.
Still had fun though....

i was letting plenty of faster cars past but most cars in the afternoon were staying on the racing line and not letting anyone past .scooby did
better than expected considering tyres were only 300 mile on em lol .

there was a few in our group who drove down to anglesey and those that trailored like me took al our tools and bits they needed.the benefit of
trailoring is if anything goes wrong with ya car you can use ya tow car like i did

went well on track was surprised could keep up with most things except slick shod cars and sevens .plenty of 4 wheel drifts especilly on the left
hander after pit straight and following hairpin

Looks like you all had a great time, I couldn't make this weekend, but plan to go up for the Bank Holiday weekend, so might see you there.

Some cool pics there Al, love the Sprint R's
Great weekend, cheers Chris for the headsup getting everyone together, good to see everyone and meet new guys too. Can't believe how good the
weather was, I now look like a large Swan Vesta, really needed some sun cream
Shame about one incident though (I won't mention who or what for insurance purposes but you know who you are) - hope you get it sorted
mate.
See you at York weather permitting.
