Piccie of my westie at Cadwell Park on the 27/4/01.

 

Pity your car wasn't 8 inches to the right, and it would have looked like you had a cone on top of your head

Great photo tho'

 

.... one thing missing Jon ...... no make it 2 things missing....
1) Lack of opposite lock
2) No photo of u with ur head in a toilet bowl

hehehehehehehehe

 

Fantastic ride round the park on Friday simply awesome performance. If you need to use the boot on my car as a garage again let me know.

Cheers

That looks like the right hander before the Mountain. Were you getting airbourne?

 

I am not so sure which corner that is, i have been trying to work it out as i just dont recognise the corner from that angle. Its a nice shot though, really shows the tyres working hard, just on the limit of traction and not over it.

As to the mountain, my car was pretty mental over that. I was taking that in 3rd and yes, it was getting airborn. Not sure what speed i was doing but it was spinning the wheels on the first small bump just before the main take off point.

I had one cracking landing where the car landed about 30 degrees sideways, i just kept the power on and ended up going up the straight with the back tyres smoking and full oposite lock on, whilst going straight ahead. It was top entertainment aparantly. I need to get hold of a copy of the video taken by TypeR's brother of that as i could see people looking at me from the specie banking open mouthed. It was a lot of fun LOL

Cadwell must be the most suitable track for my car because nothing could touch it there, it was much quicker than anything else. I had to drop my boost a little as i was getting surging as the intercooler got hot, but since i replaced my turbo before the ring its a diferent car, so much quicker. I have been scupered for ages due to a crap turbo build, which is frustrating as i wasnt aware quite how bad it was.

 

cool piccy!!!

i remember that car

j.

 

I remember the passenger too Jamie.
That run accross the Cat and Fiddle when we first met up was quite a ride, how many Superbikes did we overtake?? LOL

Michelle, behave yourself!! LOL Hope the cars sorted soon!

Very funny John.

I have no idea what your on about Richard. LOL Distinct lack of locked up front tyres and a screeming passenger too!

Thanks for the use of the boot Dave, glad you enjoyed the run. It is a very diferent experience to an Impreza. Things feel much quicker because you are so open to the elements.

I am not so sure i would like to be a passenger in my car to be honest, it must be a hell of a ride when you aren't in control.
