4Hero Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 Top day today, not too sure why there is little SIDC attendance at these events, you guys are missing out. Good to see the usual suspects there though [] Anyhow, here's a few pics: SIDC's Chris_k: I'm not really a vintage fan, but this was a work of art: John Hamilton's Westfield Megabusa: Some dodgy SIDC'ers [] Help, I'm sinking [] ^ he wasn't really [] Whoops [] Concerned, who, me? remember kids: There are wee drop more on my flickr account, but have not finished sorting them out yet. Will do soon though..
gus the bus Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 Excellent pics Neil. the "off" pics came out very well.[Y] The close up of the drivers face says it all. Why is Forrestburn always so bloody cold??? Glad you didnt get a close up of my different coloured socks[:$]
4Hero Posted April 29, 2007 Author Posted April 29, 2007 Thanks. Gus, my face has still not thawed out yet [:'(]
spooks Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 Had a good day, you guys are mentally unstable I swear [] Was great weather for Forrestburn. Some seriously quick cars, Chris K won his class and my mate was second in class again ....... overall a good day Great pics Neil, stop showing them though it makes me want a camera...... they are criminally good and your starting to have the Col crash magnet effect [] The look on Gary Dicksons face is superb LOL
JohnSt Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 The Class (A3, Road Saloon Cars over 1800cc), wondered who placed where ? Nice Pics again !!! ---john---
4Hero Posted April 29, 2007 Author Posted April 29, 2007 not sure John what the A3 class is? I'm new to hillclimbs, forgive my ignorance [:$] Spooks may know though, but he's away out tonight..
terzo neil Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 it was a good day george coghill hit the tyres at the very last corner wiping out a corner of the car, was done in 3rd practice was talking to gary who by the looks of it doing off roading in his westie and very nice lambo in carpark parked just down from me
marky.t.s Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 nice pics again neil,couldnt make it today,i decided(my wife decided)i should take advantage of the dry weekend to do some slabbing in the garden[]
JohnSt Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 From the look of it round my way everyone in the area was slabbing this weekend
4Hero Posted April 30, 2007 Author Posted April 30, 2007 and very nice lambo in carpark parked just down from me you mean this one? Hmmm, I'll take it, but in black please [H]
spooks Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 ...and A3 ? Im assuming it would have been the early black evo( Evo 2 ?), the other black evo ( 5 or 6 i think ) had a rear diff fault and never made the timed runs. I may well be wong though.
G.Mac Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 Great pictures shame about the crap forum software Graeme
4Hero Posted April 30, 2007 Author Posted April 30, 2007 adjust your screen resolution to 1280x1024 mate and It'll all be good []
Chris_k Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 ...and A3 ? Im assuming it would have been the early black evo( Evo 2 ?), the other black evo ( 5 or 6 i think ) had a rear diff fault and never made the timed runs. I may well be wong though. yeh it was dave in the evo 3. he broke the hill record for that class! i reckon cause i loaned him a hose clip for the boost pipe finished up alright. won my class and was only 1.7 secs off the hill record considering im well down on power no straight cut box no lsd and no avons! so by june that time is gettin shattered!
JohnSt Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 ...and A3 ? won my class and was only 1.7 secs off the hill record considering im well down on power no straight cut box no lsd and no avons! so by june that time is gettin shattered! Forrestburn isn't a 'power' hill LSD and Tyres will be most helpful, you'll be surprised how long 1.7secs is there. Conditions were ideal on Sunday so you have some work to do before June chris [] P.S. Why was your name Alex in the entry list for Doune ?
Chris_k Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 uch there was a mix up with the entry, my dads fault lol im using standard ratios which suck! im bogging down coming out the bottom hairpin cause its welll off cam. the guy in the corsa was using 4th i was strugglin to get use of 3rd! ive also got coilovers ordered so it should be a total different car by june. throttle bodies, BE straight cut gearbox with a 5.4 final drive and plate diff, custom driveshafts, coilovers, rev limit turned up to around 8.2k instead of 7k just now, peugeot sport clutch kit, rose jointed gearlinkages and a fiberglass bonnet with intake cut for the boddies. if all goes to plan it should be a total different car looking forward to the next doune!
Ali Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Chris, what class are you in? I am usually in A2 but my golf is getting rebuilt at the moment, should hopefully be out in it towards the end of the season though. Entered into Golspie in the Scoob wagon, should be fun.
