Just like to say thanks from us to all the people that turned up today...... without you lot that day jus twould not have happened...
A few people had a few mishaps but luckily noone was hurt, and perhaps my idea of the 6 Fiestas going out for a little tussle at 4.30pm wasn't such a god idea when 2 of them collided 1 of them being my brother in law....
Roll on next year so we can do it all again

Was a cracking day. Thanks to everyone who sorted it
Wiped out a few cones and had a few moments but the old girl held up pretty well all day
Hope the people I took out found it ok and apologies to DanS for not being able to but my fuel guage was causing me concern (it was at the bottom)
Roll on the next one

She did me proud all day and i had ALOT of fun in it
Only stopped as i wore my Slicks out
Quality day, some great action on track .
Was my first time behind the wheel of a cossy on track and I was well impressed, still need plenty of practice yet myself but having a lot of power through the rear wheels wasn't half as worrying as I thought it would be.
Can't wait for the next one !

I'd like to thank Alpina for letting me drive his car
Also Mike Rainbird for taking me out although shame those fiestas collided as I only got one lap with him but that was enough to appreciate how well that car handles
Bad luck to all of those that either had breakages or accidents, hope none of them end up costing too much to repair

I ended up having some more sideways joy rides in the Mk2 Escorts from the Beds RSOC
Great day guys, Palmer sport were a bit clueless but the beds group had it all under control...
Meet quite a few peeps who I haven't met before.. Smit n Friends, Tony T Foreign RS n Crew...
Cheers to Alex for the early morning ride- Scooby was very cool..
Cheers to BIG P..... the car is quite simply amazing and takes sooo much speed through the corners.. the handling setup is awesome..
Tiffany as usual- a pleasure... our proffesional track crew however went to shambles in the petrol station
we must have looked like a right bunch of pikeys
SKETCH- Just to re confirm trying to cut a couple of corners out doesn't mean your car is faster than Tiffs
Chow..

Great day out and as always a great track.
Was bugged by problems with my actuator. Broke the bar 3 times in the end. Luckily the local Blacksmith welded it up for me a couple of times and ended up bodging it with nuts, a long bolt and 4 hose clips!!!!
Ended up only running about 12 pound of boost for the afternoon but still had some fun!!!
Took the Cayenne out on track a couple of times when the westy was busted and even impressed myself with the speed that 2 and a half tonne rocket goes round!!!
When is the next one!!! Cant we get another one sorted this year?

Whats the deal with all the photos taken today? There was one guy and a load of others on that bloody corner where I had a couple of spins!!!
Will they be available somewhere as I am sure he must have got some great shots on track?

As everyone, massive thanks to Beds RSOC for organising the day, and the venue was brilliant as always
Sooo much track time, 130miles on track for me (black 205 mi16) and i could have done a lot more
Really well organised day - cant wait for the next one
Thanks,
Nige
P.S. Big up to Tiff for the 5 or 6 lap long battle we had, properly intense driving leading to a couple of out breaking myself moments, but it was a whole lot of fun.
You'll probably be not suprised to hear I drove all the way home with the passenger side front brake not working at all, think they took a bit of a pounding today eh?

Many thanks to all of Bedford RSOC and the Palmersport peeps for a very well organised event at a very well set up venue - I had a great day.
Did 150+ miles on track, didn't spin it or bin and drove home at the same speed as I did on track. The 205 Mi16 conversion rocks!
Sorry I missed out on racing Tiff in his car, sounds like it could have been an interesting 3 way battle - next time!!!
Thanks again all
