bigbadboab Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 What a cracking day it turned out to be. It was still rather misty and overcast first thing but by the end of the track session it was gorious sunshine. Thanks to Graeme (fastscooby) for the pax laps, never been round Knockhill before and it sets me up for the next time on the track myself. Hopefully there will be some good photos coming from Colin.

scoobaroo Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Another great day, and may i say, very well organised by John and Company.[Y] A Knockers noob [:$], i loved every minute, and improved my technique and line as the day went on. Some cracking cars on display, which were all driven on track, by, on the large very competent drivers. Think i done ok and managed to keep pace with most of you guyz [] When can we do it again !! [] p.s. give me time to save for new tyres and pads first. [Y] [Y] [Y]
STi_Bandit Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Had a good day today was unsure of the weather was going to be like driving over the forth in nice thick fog but that burnt off lovely as soon as you got over the bridge. Always nice to meet new faces Craig Mac and others i talked to,... The Hoff poses have been done.... Stephen thank you for the Px Laps And finally a big well done to spooks for breaking his track virginity, (means iam next).... Martin
scientific steve Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 big thanks for another fantastic day out good to meet up and say hello with folk peter, imy, callum, grant and others, sorry cant remember all the names [] Imy, sorry i never got back to ya, did you catch them flames ??? callum, HUGE thanks for that, ahem, tiger in me tank, hope you get things sorted soon matey spooks, thanks for that display right in front of me and me old man [] just glad you never hit the ditch peter and craig two very nice scoobs there and very nice sounding tooo all i can think about is flames [] oh and new brakes [] big thanks guys steve
st3ph3n Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Sheep, it's the same backbox, just an unresonated centre and the third cat has been removed now too. I'm so chuffed with it. I was really pleased with my car on the whole. It's sounding and pulling better than ever, although I'm still getting left behind on the straights by some of the others. Brakes got better as the day went on actually, but the discs are nearly shot. Think I took out 7 different people during the day and no one complained. Although my mates wee boy was very quiet, and seemed to grab the door handle quite tightly a few times [] Peter's car was moving very nicely indeed. Marty, followed you a couple of times and you were doing very nicely. The tein + whiteline package is working a treat for a few of us. Good to see Craig bringing blue thunder down from aberdeen. Another top car from BHP. Ya didn't take a whole lot of convincing to get out on the track did you big man? I told you corners were good. Nice to meet Barry. The 06 is looking very nice indeed. Look forward to seeing you at some of the other meets. Get along to Ian Grieve in falkirk on the 22nd for the central one, should be good. Seafar, I thought the fuzz was behind us in Kincardine or I'd have maybe went after you a bit quicker. Turned out it was just a paramedic land cruiser. Curse you batenburg stickers! Anyone I've forgotten? Paul, thanks for remembering the double sided tape, but it was a bit strong for my liking [] A pre-emptive thanks to Col for the great pictures which will no doubt be up soon. And everyone else that made it up. Days like today make us all realise why we own scoobys no matter if you tracked them or not because the banter and the camaraderie is fantastic.
gus the bus Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Excellent day once again! Great to see so many familiar faces and to meet a few new ones[Y] special thanks to Mr Mako for the pax laps as usual.[] Gus
Mako Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Another fantastic day organised by John and Knockhill [Y] Didn't get much time to speak to folks as I seemed to be out on track all day. Apologies to anyone who didn't get a pax lap that wanted one. [] Bandit, I kept trying to get a hold of you for a few laps but you were either out or MIA [] Gus and Brian, hope you felt the difference in the car as much as I did. [] Great driving by all today.[Y] Huge thanks to ScoobyLav and Big Daz for the storage facilities [] When's the next one???????? I need another fix. [] Thanx again Russ
col666 Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Another great day, itching to get mine on track now! Big up to Baldyadonis for the pax laps, going broadside into clarks was fun[] Good to meet up with a great bunch of people again, that cold pint afterwards in Powmill was very tasty[] Will try and get some pics up later, didnt take too many as I was more interested in pax laps and getting the banter! Col.
craig mac Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Good to see Craig bringing blue thunder down from aberdeen. Another top car from BHP. Ya didn't take a whole lot of convincing to get out on the track did you big man? I told you corners were good. Aye Bud, your right it never took long, Had to show Fai what it could do[] It was a great day and i never took long to get the "drift" on the track WOO HOO.... And pulling up that straight to 130ish before breaking for Duffus was ACE Need a set of pads now though....LOL Imy was well impressed too me thinks, she was disco dancing when she got out of the car [] Ruby (Sharon) your mate was p00ping it....but am sure she enjoyed it most chicks do LOL[]j/kin Great day
gus the bus Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Gus and Brian, hope you felt the difference in the car as much as I did.
