Default Knockhill rs day

Just got back from the rs day at knockhill and ive got to say it was a pretty damm good day,weather was bad first thing but sun soon came out and the track action was awesome with some mentally fast cars.

The green ag escort was insane so was the white time attack escort cossie shame the never got out behind each other.
First time ive been to knockhill and i was quite impressed with the circuit and facilities so all in all a Top day.

So a big well done to all who organised the show

Default escort

knockhill was a good day today. the green escort was my mates, we were up with it today, it got dynod at 661bhp, its painted focus rs green with a carbon fibre roof, it was going well today, andrew gallacher built the car and he had a shot to set the brake bias up. i think its going in fast ford in the next few months.

carlo ye missed a good day, stuart whites car looks like it was flying aswell, apart from that jamies escort was prob the fastest thingon track when he was on each time, it would have been good to see the green escort and stuarts escort out at the same time.
