Anyone on here?

Really good day apart from the torrential rain, standing "lakes" and then a bit of glorious sun.

the lakes were the best bit!

Was the new lower noise limit a problem? anyone get chucked off?

Was thinking of doing the afternoon but the weather put us off..

I think they only turned 2 cars around. A westy who added an extra silencer to the end of his pipe, and a nissan??? who had to put a standard rear box on.
My home made re packable can measured 94db at 4500rpm, which i was happy with.

Were you in the yellow Tiger?

We were in the black MX5 with the silver hard top and fat balck stipes on the roof.

Was a good day later on - only about 4 cars on track for the last hour or so so we had a right good run.

My MX5 was happy at 82db!

Yes, that was me. I nearly went home at 12 but once i went out and was wet i had a right laugh. I hope i didn't get in your way

When it dried out i put the slicks on and had even more fun on a near empty track.

Why were we going that fast???

Car was driven near it's limit alll day and doesn't have that wind in your hair feeling, but as for the handling, it's not far of what Bitsablade was like.

Top day.

''Why were we going that fast??? ''-
I don't know, with all the spray I couldn't see a thing most of the time!!
