~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Had a great time today..........only one other Scooby on track ( Geordie fella who lives in Hamilton with an Sti9 and had not heard of the SIDC so I hope he signs up tonight ) Was a mixture of showers and the odd bright spell.........my car performed exceptionally well thanks to Wuz & Andy F. Kills included :- ( or folk who got outta the way []) included ......... New style M3 911 Turbo 911 Carrera 4S STi9 [] - edit actually a Sti 10 2.5 litre Exige Elises Prodrive specced RX8 Race prepped Mini A couple of guys said my discs were glowing at the hairpin which might explain the kill count [6]. Only car I could not pass was the Yellow Evo. A black Evo was black flagged for dodgy driving @ the hairping - I would of passed him too had not been driving like Miss Daisy on the bends and not letting me past. he was very quick on the straights though......... Took Bing out on track towards the end but did not manage any other paxxing as I was recording from the rear window. Video ( 2nd file to follow tonight) Cheers Cal
col666 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 My mate Iain was there today, heres a few pics- he only got the 1 of you Cal, his excuse was it was too dark! dont know if that was the weather or the car though. Colin.
seafar99 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Cal, I was one of the people who clocked your 'glowing discs'. Yip that yellow evo was indeed very quick, any idea who the red flags got brought out for? craig.
st3ph3n Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Tired to fix it col, but some of your links are bust. Are you on IE7?
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 Not sure about the red flags.............I had zero spins but i think an Elise "conked out" and the othr one was for the Mini hitting the kitty litter ! I apologies for not introducing myself properly. I was high as a kite [<)] CGS
st3ph3n Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Switch back to 6 or use Firefox 2 until we get the problem with the forum fixed.
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 Col - I will email you for that picky ( cash waiting) Waiting for video to be approved Thanks Cal
col666 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Talking of hot brakes...check this cossie out from the other weekend- Col.

Bing Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Yeh, I can confirm that the shand mobile was flying today and terrified some expensive machinery out there................nice[]
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 FARK ! Google has diluted the quality big time so I will have to reprocess and upload again http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=87...77620&hl=en Will have a better one in the morning............... CGS
GavITR Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Replied, Cheers Col. Good video Cal, shame about the quality though. Glad its not just me who talks to myself on track.
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 Fear not Gav I have doubled the quality and awaiting Google to approve [] I have to restrain myself on video too [:$] CGS
K2RX Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Hi there Cal, Enjoyed today, even if it did mean being passed by you scoobys, the evos, elises, exige, beemers.... even a goddamn mini! Managed to pass the caterhams (easy), alfas, the 350z and a porsche. [] Good video, especially enjoyed the bit with you stuck behind the exige... funny stuff. Looking forward to it in high res though. Next time I'll be doing the overtaking. [] Take care, K2 Prodrive RX8, slower round Knockhill than a scooby....... for now
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 Cheers my good man ! There are some pics of your car in here :- http://www.brighambros.co.uk/gallery_48276.html Col666 may have some more too That RX8 handles really nicely and sounds great at the pit wall See ya soon Calum EDIT - jump to 12 mins 20 secs for the Exige incident
fai17 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Quote of the week....It's show time!!!!. Just watch the first 3 mins of it and thought i'll wait for the high res one[].... So wished i came up but there is always next time... I like your style of driving Cal....nice and smooth.[Y]
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 NEW VIDEO :- http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=13...19317&hl=en Looks like I will have to resurrect www.shand-online.co.uk cos Google / PutFile & YouTube ain't the way forward Still ain't great quality but you get the jist ! The mosy annoying thing for me is that I have full DVD quality roight here in front of me and cannot share it properly ! You cannot drift to far right on the exit of corners when it's wet hence some early turn in's. You can clip a corner okay but to run wide is suicidal ! In the dry you can let the car take the straightest lines but not today ! "It's show time" .........love that film The Mask Cheers Cal
fai17 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Good vid Cal and looks like you will need to resurrect your old web page.
wheelchairscooby Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Nice work mate how fast was that big alfa i could have went on with my sqibb
