paul555sti Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 Last couple. Empty heed were you out in the sti ?
Guest CRAIG D Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) I was out there the day and it was BUCKETING IT DOWN. came over to the SIDC tent but it was empty Seen the squiggle but u were busy speaking to someone at the colin mcrae tent. Ford Focus RS was stunning but it gets let down being a FWD Edited May 9, 2009 by CRAIG D
paul555sti Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 When the sea king flew over i thought it was going to drop off life rafts. That was the wettest i have ever seen it up there. The focus was very nice. Although there was a very nice legacy that Grant and Imy were looking after, that would have been the car i would have taken home out of them all.
jonboywrx Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Well gotta say what a rubbish day!! lol, good job we have a good set of lads and was good laugh because that rain wasnt nice!! Some nice cars, hope its better tomorrow for you guys! catch you all soon jon
ANDYJDMSTI Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 The rain was freakin horrendous!! Good to see some known faces around and lets hope tomorrow is a better day.
gordi82 Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 good photos hope you had a good day even though it was p*ssin down.
scouk Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) Yep Agree with above comments... Drove down today... Great event would definately go down again, first tiem I'd been to Knickhill since I was 6!.. But.. the rain REALLY spoiled it.. It's an outdoor event and it was WAY to cold and wet to be outdoors.. Sheltered into the ColinMcRae tent for a while, had a couepl wanders round, watched a coupel events, then headed home early at 2pm, Woudl have gone for a few passenger rides but decided against walking back roudn the track after realising the weather wasn't goign to improove... Worst part.. Had rain all the way up the road until Aberdeen where it cleared and I neaded for the A96.. only to discover there's hasn't been much rain at all at home all day Never mind, was nice to go out for a good drive on some good roads (via glenshee).. Just wished the rain wasn't so wet P.s. How bad in the road surface on the M90 up to perth!!! Nearly as much potholes as the skye run!!!! Nasty surface! Edited May 9, 2009 by ScoUK
the squiggle Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 What a long and wet day Highlight for me was between the Nimrod fly past and the Sea King demonstration Really hoping the weather is even just a slight improvement tomorrow asd today was an endurance test Expected crowds of 20000 over the 2 days according to The Sun, heres looking at 18000 tomorrow as todays attendance was nowhere near last years but i think that would be down to either the Old Firm or the fact that people looked out the window and thought feck that. The Cobra on track sounded awesome and looked a right handful On my knees currently prying to the sun god
RA Dunk Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Really hoping the weather is even just a slight improvement tomorrow asd today was an endurance test the AM`s looking ok afternoon looks like a rain fest http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/ta/...st_weather.html
ANDYJDMSTI Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 the AM`s looking ok afternoon looks like a rain festhttp://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/ta/...st_weather.html Oh deep joy!!.........snorkel it is!
Big Gordon Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Planning on heading up tomorrow. Is it park and ride for the general public??
stubaroo Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Packed the family in the car and headed up at around 11 o'clock. By the time we got up to Knockhill it was hammering it down, so we did a u-turn and turned back. Totally gutted as we were all looking forward to this one but I just couldn't see the kids lasting long in that rain. I am working tomorrow morning and I think the forecast is much the same in the afternoon as it was today.
gordi82 Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I do have to say even though I sell subaru I really like the new rs it looks evil

bobbyc Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 That was the wettest coldest day ever, but we had a good laugh & the banter was top notch as always, Hope you get a better day today
