Hoping it won't be too wet. Demister isn't working too well and wipers are wiping when they feel like it!
I guess I could solve both problems by removing the windscreen....

Should see you guys there about 11.00

If past events are anything to go by, there will be a few of the 'unconfirmed' names not turn up, so I would say you'd be more than welcome. It wouldn't be too much hassle to fit another car in whatever happens anyway, even if things are full

Go for it. See you there

Kev200, just pop along mate. As Sticky says, there shouldn't be any bother fitting you in

Those whom plan to arrive after the 9am start, please make yourselves known to me as soon as you arrive. My car will be parked nearest the hut (you'll know when you see it) and it's a blue (what other colour is there ) MY03 blobeye 52 plate Scooby WRX with STi wing. I on the other hand will be parked next to the barbie with a burger in hand

Well he wouldn't be on his own as Tony will be there with his 182.
Stuart, we're going to be heading thru chain bar roundabout onto the M62 at about 7ish.

The entrance is very easy to miss, and I'm afraid I can't give you any tips of what to look for You'll just have to be very eagle-eyed once you're about 1.5 miles outside Blyton on the B1205. IIRC there is a sign, but it isn't very obvious and it will be on your left as you head east.

FAVOUR NEEDED

My mate has lent me his digital camera to catch some pics and vids of the day, and as before I was gonna bring my lappy to download each full flashcard. Only thing is, the mini USB cable isn't in his camera bag so I can't connect it and I can't get in touch with him. Can anyone who has one please bring it tomorrow ?? I'd have though they'd be the same for all digicams, but his is a Fuji.



Thanks in advance. I know you lot won't let me down

Excellent day apart from springing an oil leak fairly early on you guys all look like you had fun though- with the possible exception of the Impreza that got pulled on the M62

I took in the region of 300 photos but left one of the memory cards in my coat, which is in the Impreza, which I dropped ioff at the warehouse- will pick it up later and post them tomorrow.

Cheers guys,
Simon

My first track day with the WYIOC and what a success,

I really enjoyed myself great company as usual

What can I say about Sticky's video work on the way there, other than for gods sake hold on tight andy and dont drop the camera.lol

Daza's track side camera work once again Second to none. did anyone esle spot the cone with camera lol..

The track pass system worked really well giving brilliant track timing without any excessive waiting time BRILLIANT..........

Big thanks to DAVE (CB) well done mate

Even the drive home was enjoyable, did not want to pull off the motorway

Any way once again thanks to all involved for giving this WYIOC'er a great day out

Mick..

Smile When's the next one?

I thought it was good when I was there but now I'm back home with a beer and recounting the days events to the missus it just feels better than ever

Top day, top people, car didnt break, although it did decide to spit out a little fluid of various kinds and as expected the brakes couldn't take the strain but still bloody brilliant, more, more, more!!

Huge thanks to Corradoboy for arranging it all as well

Had a great time, despite my wide-wing & bumper relocation mod, only went out in the morning as I thought tring to dry fast with Manflu was asking for another incident.
As it stands the bumper & wing will pull out no problem, it was only a 5mph impact.

Cheers Dave :thumbs:

Top day, thoroughly enjoyed it, shame about the slight cosmetic incident... Hope the guy with the Clio ended up okay. I'll sort out some of my video footage over the next day or so and post a link or two when it's done.

It's late and I'm knackered, so I'll keep this brief.

Many, many thanks to all who attended today for making it so thoroughly enjoyable. Especially Al for helping run things, Dazza/Sticky for the piccy's and Kev for his invaluable rescue services.

Thanks to the LancerEvo and SXOC forum members, and all the others who came along to make up a varied paddock. You will all be invited to the next one

Really gutted about the incident, but we'll leave it there Hope it all works out for the best.

Many thanks for both organising and making us sxoc guys feel so welcome, it is appreciated and I cant wait for the next one

What a perfect track for a bit of steer from the rear fun
