What a day that was.

Car done really well.

Had to change tyres 3 times!

15's were shagged,too much understeer wrecked the front tyres.

JC had a spare set of 17's, put these on, much beter.

Then when he blew the diff , he gave me the slicks to put on.

What a difference it made,no understeer , went around the corners like it was on rails.

Did try to get it sideways with them on but they were a bit too sticky.

Some really good cars there too, the escort mk.1, about 400 bhp , should have seen him drift around the bends with smoke bellowing from the rear tyres.

thanks to Dave for organising another top day.



Dave.

 

forgot to say.

nice seeing Pete again (warley daddy), where did you go,thought you wanted a spin.

Also Gaz W, nice meeting you, was looking for you about 2.15 but could not see you.Sorry.


Dave.

 

Yeh was a good day,that MK2 escort was AMAZING!!!!!

Well impressed with his 300yard drifts!!!

I did want a spin Dave,but as you saw the guy that brought my old saff off me blew the diff in in it too,so out the good ness of my own heat,i let him take my new saff round insted,as i felt guilty that he`d paid his money,and couldnt go round!!

Cheers for lettin me use the straps to drag him out!!!Top man!!!!

I would of come back in when i saw you at the gate,but it KILLS me watchin people race when i cant so i called it a day!!

Dont worry though,il catch you next time,might even take u out in the XR2!

See you sunday mate!!

Pete..

 

Slicks do make a difference dont they Dave

 

warleydaddy,

Thanks Pete.

NUTS RuS,


Tony, could not believe the difference.

i like to go sideways a bit but it was a change just to go around the track flat out and not understeer at all!

Wass good using them, will get a set deffo.



Dave.

 

Dave

came to where your car was a couple of times but you seemed to be a bit busy so didnt really want to keep pestering you for a ride

was good to meet you too mate ...hopefully next time i will get that passenger ride

 

it would not have been a problem at all.

To busy changing wheels.

maybe next time then.


Dave.

 

it was a bloody good day indeed def dominated by the ford crew, some awewome mk1 escorts out, i heard you dif go in the paddok area gutted mate, got some great videa footage of the silver cossie racing around with the white erst

i was buzzing around in the blue mi16 205, which did ok, havent quite got the power for the straights at brunters but did well on some of the twisty more technical bits, very good day though

 

gabe,



that was my mates car, John from JC Motorsport.

gabe,

I am the one who owns the silver cossie.

the blue 205 was going well, sounded good too.



Dave.

 

Post it up !!

I got a tiny bit of footage of a blue 205 followed by that S2 I do believe

 

Brmm brmm

Forgot to ask how it went Dave

Sound like you had a good day roll on your Escy Cos ey

Thought Tango had a naught diff on it Dave how did it blow...driving or launching

 

gabe is my other logon, i couldnt get this one working for while (my sons name is gabriel, so he can get on here when hes older )

have to say the pug was going really well, just not fast enough on the straights, was well jelous seeing all the ford crew flying round gutted that i never got to take my stage 3 2wd out before selling. ah well need to save some more money before i upgrade to a proper track weapon, so the 205 will have to do for now

cant get vid onto the web as i am thick & cant work out firewire from my digicam,
but heres a link to the guy that does all the track pics & there some decent pics of the cosworths on there

cheers

 

Met

Is this a bit of you here

Clicky Here

 

LOL
nice one mate, can i say for the record that i captured some of that on my video too, thankfully from the pit lane as i was videoing my brother going round verrrrrrry slowly! he was there in the "interesting" porshe 914 thing, in his defence he said he was driving slowly as he didnt want to damage my new toy, but that trip over the grass wouldnt have it much favours,
i shall be emailing himt his link though & giving him the damn good ribbing he deserves for such a display of gayness i will be having words with him
btw what have you got in that erst??? it was flying mate!

***ONCE AGAIN CAN I STATE THAT WAS NOT ME DRIVING***

 

ive just watched that vid again, & despite being blue flagged he still didnt pull over & let you by as you where clearly on a flyer, but ran wide then srtaight out onto the grass
what a do-nut

 

Cheers

I was well chuffed with me car- all apart from it having an annoying misfire most of the day, but it still was going well all the same.

Btw, I know how off-putting them flags can be cos I got black flagged at one point n that totally fooked me concentration into the corner. I didn’t go on the grass tho

Btw, I thought that Porsche was some sort of kitted Fiat X-19

LOL thats not the first time he's heard that, & that was his first track day, so i'll have to be gentle with him when i show him the vid later cheers
