Big thanks to andy for the vids

steve

 

Good footage on the in-car video - fpmsl @ 'get out of the f-ing way!' moment!

That circuit looks a bit tight and twisty - quite easy to go off on some of those corners I bet!

You cut the video before you could hear the sigh of relief when the S1 pulls in thep pits though

Cheers,

Andy

 

It is a very tight track. Lucky for me Andy didn't have his camera on when i spun right in front of him Hope to get my incar vid done soon, need a better Beep box than Andy had though

 

I can't believe I missed that Rob, gutted - was full on, blue smoke the lot

How frustrated was I behind that S1 Dropped 4 seconds a lap on a 58 second lap

 

Its not a race

 

Rob
it's not a convoy either
being inconsiderate is very frustrating to people behind, ok allowances for not seeing who's behind for so long, as they maybe concentrating on there driving, but as soon as practical, then allow people past.

we all have to be more aware of whats going on around, also marchalls should use a blue flag aswell if going on long enough.
Lanbaugh is tight and twisty, and if you have to force yourself past accidents wil occur, and Yes it is not a race. A bit of fun, a test of driving skill (or Lack of it) and car performance.
roll on next one
Tigger needs some something to give it that bit more power on the straights.
wonder what we can fit.........?

cheers........Ken

 

Ken, Rob was Joking

steve

 

Ken you are right. If and when i get my video done you will see how i was being held up. And how i was letting people past only because they had a faster stright line car then holding me up on corners All i can make out from that night was there were a lot of first timers, I've only done 3 but i get the idea.
The thing most people should remember is that if someone is driving a trackday and not a road car. There is a lot less concern over damaging it. After all it goes home on a trailor.
So if someone sees me behind then remember; My car cost very little, If it gets busted I put it back on the trailor, If your a foot in front of me your slower please move over

And of course Ken knows i was joking. I would have put down the same as he had but i couldn't be arsed to type it out.
Ken 2 mini superchargers for Tigger

Can't wait for the next one

 

@ "GET OUT MY BEEPING WAY"

 

I thought I was quite restrained really - took me about 3 laps to swear at him

Was frustrating though as I didn't want to stick it down the inside into a bend, or go past on the right, as that's just as bad as holding someone up, and probably more likely to cause an accident.

Just need that NOS, or those turbo's fitted, for next time

 

The guy in that s1 as well as getting in your way andy, Put his car on the cleveland stand at national day without asking or being a member..

steve

 

You know what to do Steve
How did he get a pass to get in to the group area ?

 

He never had one m8, when I asked him how the fook he got in he said "I just drove through the gate" !!
Another point to make at the Main group AGM!!!
Security!!! or lack of..

steve

 

cool vids who was the tool in the s1 dude behind him was well piseed as i would have been

 

Complete idiot driving that S1, really pisses me off when you get some tit who won't indicate & pull of the racing line to let u go by, its a real shame he didn't spin off in front of you People like that are the ones that cause accidents, if they want to race they should enter a race series ffs

Simon.

 

smart vids mate

 

nice vids mate, shame about the tool in the s1

 

He was holding you up a bit there mate...

Can i ask how much it cost you to hold the event there?

We did some drifting there one sat night and wondered about a track session....

 

the normal cost including a paramedic which you must have is Ł1100 we got it for Ł900 as my brother in law is a paramedic and did it for free,
It is tight round the back of the circuit but it is fine for about 10 cars per session as long as they move over when a faster car comes up behind!!!

steve
