Excellent day :D

Great to see everybody again. Absolutely loved driving around the track and will definately be doing it again. Was a bit upset with the 1/4 miles as I was struggling to get any decent traction when pulling off and was very ****** off with the guy who decided to spin his wheels up in front of my car covering it with burning rubber. :tsktsk: Spent the day either driving around the track or as a passenger in my mates Supras..

Thanks to all those that organised the great day :D

Agreed, I had a fantastic time. I'm sure some of you would have seen my razzing around in my standard beast! :D Some of the supra boys were a bit crazy but all in all it was a great day.

Only things I would say are that it would have been quite nice if we had our own little Lexus area. I ended up spending most of the day being crammed in between a bunch of MR2's and Yaris'. Also, might be good to have a bit of a one way system around the parking area - since everyone was parking all over the place it was quite easy to end up driving out of your pit area and meeting someone head on coming back into their pit.

Did anyone end up getting those professional pictures? I wouldn't have minded some but I couldn't see where to buy them from.

Anyway, my pics and videos will be coming soon. :)

Great day out, I had a brilliant time. Good to see the peeps I know and meet ones that I didn't.

The organisation was spot on and thanks to all who set the day up.

Can't help thinking that I was not pushing it hard enough on the track cos I still got some tread left on the tyres :lol:

Story at the BBQ tonight was how I managed to stay ahead of a Supra on the 1/4 mile for at least 200 yards then got burned big time. It was awsome to have the window open, foot flat on the floor and get passed like I had a foot on the brake with a BOV hissing in my ear.

When's the next one :question:

big thanks to everyone...........

as always its been great to meet old and new faces......

had a great day out with the car, it performed faultless, unfortunatly the 1/4 mile section wasnt suited to setting good 1/4 mile times.......

the track was brilliant, and sorry for not being able to get everyone out with me i promised......hopefully next year

Hi all, what a day :D Big thanks to TOC & LOC for seting this up, only did the 1/4 mile but still had lots of fun just doing that, some very fast cars there..........skylines well what can i say they are the dogs**** :whistling: & the supras :ohmy:

me and ahmet went to the 1/4 mile as soon as it opend, 1st and 2nd run was not to good ;) ahmet got away from the start very fast in his "auto" IS300 hat of to him, but the 3rd time i got away from the start very quick, i was just in front all the way to the end :whistling: :winky:

i then had some run,s with Ad & Zee what can i say, i was holding my own untill the last 100m or so :whistling: not bad for a car that has not been maped or had the work done to it as Ad,s car has so all in all i was veryhappy :winky:

but by the end of the day something was not right with me car, i could hear something at the top end :sick:

But over all i had a very good day, good to see all the old faces & the new ones that i had not seen before :D

Best time i got was 15.07 roll on sata pod :winky:

I think Zee was hiting 14,s and ahmet hit 14.34 something like that, nice one mate :winky:

But all in all it was a good day had by all :D

PM me if anybody dosen't like to boast..... :)

Time was 14.68 seconds ......... terminal speed i think was about 93 - 97mph ....

Neils tezza ..... well, let's say .... I thought I was running on my own ! lol ........ sorry Neil ! :D

I went up against a few IS200's S/C and Turbo's ............ must say it was almost neck and neck ... if not quicker ! :D

Me and Marcus went up first ............ first two runs I had to show him what an 'auto' could do ........ but then I thought I'd let him get the best of me on the 3rd run ...... he he ! B) :whistling:

I did about 17 runs in total .................

I suffered the same traction problems as several other guys and for the first 40-50m was slipping and sliding all over the place and just not putting the power down. Best time 15.43 :ohmy:
