zeolite Posted March 19, 2005 Author Posted March 19, 2005 It is a glamorous thing motor-racing! Had to fix the trailer today! Still it will be worth it on Sunday!
zeolite Posted March 19, 2005 Author Posted March 19, 2005 Johnny. What time are you heading up? We should be at the Dunfermline junction on the M90 about 07:50
zeolite Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 Excellent day. Mud plugging was the order of the day and boy was it slippy! Good to see Scoobylav and Big Daz whose shiny cars were parked in 2" of mud . johnny was there to keep sticking the Astra in my way but i didn't hit it cos I am a nice guy I would post up some pics but the attachment button doesn't work! So AutoX photos
Foz01 Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Not sticking the times up Truly great fun folks- get out there with a mate and go mud plugging, better fun than trackdays imo!
zeolite Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 Oh Aye think you are so smart eh Foz? Well answer me this....Where is your camera charger eh?
Scoobylav Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Zeolite - OK I eat humble pie We had a really good laugh for the short time we were there. We saw some demonstrations of really good driving . . . . . Foz - It was good to put another face to a name. Still off to Edzell next weekend But you may well see us again at the next autocross Ian P.S The cars aint so shiny after leaving the swamp
zeolite Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 Ian...You missed the really good stuff on the timed runs. The track got quicker as the slimy stuff was thrown off and we started to go for it. The Metro was ultra committed and amazingly there was only one banging incident even though we were driving within cms on that lovely track surface. Same place and time on the 8th May for the next one.
dougster Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 "I would post up some pics but the attachment button doesn't work!" Copy the tag in photobucket begining with < img src.... Like so..................... WHAT A SCARE DO!!!!!!!!!!!
zeolite Posted March 22, 2005 Author Posted March 22, 2005 Dougster...I sense a deep longing in you. Perhaps due to your own impending follicle extermination you have chosen to parody my own luxurious crowning glory. You have my sympathy In serious pain BTW had a big tooth extracted. The experience must be similar to having to share a tent with Dougster.
Foz01 Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 Nice Pic about the tooth though, when you planning on heading offshore again, if you caold maybe drop that charger off to casa foz on the way Cheers
Johnny50 Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 << johnny was there to keep sticking the Astra in my way but i didn't hit it cos I am a nice guy AutoX photos >> Hey guys... Had a great day....and we came out the other end without any dents...even though you threatned to give us our first... Although, after knocking several sticks down...we got a couple... Looking forward to the next outing...see you all there.
zeolite Posted March 23, 2005 Author Posted March 23, 2005 Good to see you there Johnny. Joking apart your man did a very good job and your car was very nicely prepared. The driving was difficult but boy was it fun! I can't remember the last time I was so sideways. The crack at 'crosses is pretty good too! See you on the 8th May
Johnny50 Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 Well here's a few pics aswell... How it looked at the start of the day ! And by the finish.... And the novelty pic... Beating Ian at the start.....although he took the lead 30 seconds later....
zeolite Posted March 29, 2005 Author Posted March 29, 2005 video of my first timed run in the 205 first run Note the death or glory overtake and the gentle push up the hill.
