Just got back myself, uploading pics and videos of you all.

Very enjoyable day, as always, one of, if not the best show/day on the calendar. Good to meet and catch up with everyone :)

Got 300 miles to 3/4 of a tank in the ST, very good weather all weekend, and not sunburnt. Roll on Summer!!

Great day as usual, especially after finding out they had introduced a fat bas*ard option in the cafe :D

Weather was awesome, great turnout and a good laugh too :)

Nice pics Nick,

Great weekend as ever. Was really pleased with the 106 - 480 miles in total, including the 2 track sessions where it did really well. I'll upload a few pictures when i can be bothered.

Nice to see a few new faces, and let's hope the show season continues on the same level! :aviator:

Fantastic day, best weather we've ever had too! Stand position was pretty good as well.



black2 :Hionly thing i noticed though was that with about 1-2 laps to go each time, after thrashing it from the start the car began to get hot and smoke a bit, Im sure tweek must have seen it in the first session as im sure he was following me at one point.
I did see that yes! Thought something had let go! Wasn't ideal being so close to you on track though, none of it your fault I must add, yours was much better on the straights and I seemed to have a lot more in the corners :lol: I pulled in on the first session due to lack of gears. I made sure I found them in the 2nd session though.

Roll on FITP. Hopefully just as hot and sunny!

PS. Burman, we need links to vids :D

lol sorry if i smoked you out a little, out of intrest was it Blue smoke? Only ive checked the oil and its not used a drop, but I think this engine has a week headgasket, as I can always hear the coolant gurgaling away and it does use a bit of water.

I was really impressed with both the ft.com mk3's there, yours and smos were going really well i thought. Smo was awesome in the corners!

Ive got the bug now though, already planning some new suspension as that just high lighted how s**t mine is! and im going to purchase another 2.0l zetec, but going to go blacktop this time as they are more readily avaliable.

Whens the next one? :D :Q

Gareth.

One of the best action days I've been too. Cheers Wayne and Toby for the passenger rides, and everyone else for making it such a good couple of days. Good to see the track newcomers loving it :aviator:

Jony it's a shame you didn't come, there were plenty of m3's there.

Gareth, that's Mark in the White fiesta, not smo :)

Afternoon Gents,

Had a great day (hearing loss and sunburn aside!)

Hopefully I managed to get a few half decent shots on Steve's camera.

Fingers crossed I'll be able to make it to a few future events.
