wrxmania Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Good to see some of you guys briefly this afternoon.

Brian You beauty

wrxmania Posted March 5, 2005 Author Posted March 5, 2005 And the answer to that question is: DAH DAH!!!!!!!!!!! ANDY, ANDY and possibly ANDY (Pardon?) Brian
Andy-P Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Didn't get up until about 3pm due to the M73 being closed! Saw some really nice cars, on and off the track. Black 2 door classic sounded the business going up the straight. Keap, think I passed you when you were leaving and I was arriving...... quite a few people seem to be leaving as I was arriving. Doh!
SEEVERS Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Andy,just left as you arrived,but it was good today.First time i've been to an SIDC day at KH. Think the car you are reffering to belongs to Playsatan,mighty fast +loud.
billyboy Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Im def thinking about trying a track session later in the year.Lord it was cold today.Keap Scooby and me were first to the half way point by the way.
SEEVERS Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Me too Billy,looked good fun out there. Think i'll be hiring the wheels+ tyres though,could'nt bare to put new ones through the punishment. Del
fraser_drinkwater Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 What a day and a good laugh enjoyed the run up and i think squirrels dad enjoyed the run home!!!!!!!!!!
dave_morgan Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Superb day, thoroughly enjoyed it as usual. Big thanks to John and SIDC for organising.
Grovit Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Yep - excellent day - weather was thoroughly chilling, but the rain held off and at times it was sunny - some seriously noce machinery out on track today. Nice to see the usual suspects but also to meet a few new people as well. Kartman - those 6 pots look the business - Big Gav tells me they work rather well as well. Dougster - was good to say hello finally. Johnny (R6) - those white alloys are still looking sweet. The owner of the black type R (apologies forgotten your name already - doh) -was nice to meet you and as said before - sounded awesome going up the pit straight. All in - another cracking day
johnnyr6 Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Cheers grovit, after all i was saying about 2 pots and redstuff pads i managed to cook them although it was at the end of the day. The guy with the black type r is playsatan.
karps Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 good day even if it was baltic. Nice to see so many people. Cheers billy for ma wee prezzie. and the drive home was great
the squiggle Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Imy and myself had a thoroughly good day Cheers to everyone for making my dad feel part of it, i think he thoroughly enjoyed it, including the "spirited" drive there and back. Hitting the limiter in fifth chasing ANDYJDMSTI was a new and interesting experience................... Cheers to Playsatan and Wilky for the spirited drive round the track, both top quality cars. Pics to be posted later once the "wee-one" processes them. Roll on the next one for some Red or Dead action Grant
Guest Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 the run up was fun grant ..... need bigger brakes for some of it.
