all the staff and marshals seemed very happy with what went on, only one off in the hole time so i would hope its good feedback!

Id love there to be a regluar thing there, i was just getting into the swing of things when it was time up.

goose · 06-07-2008, 01:07

Had a moment at Tower, b**stard double apex, could'nt get it right all day, so on the last lap decided to go for it, and failed! Had a marshall as a passenger too, he enjoyed it though.

I managed to spin there too! But collected grass not barrier. I do have a bodykit for sale if you are interested BTW!

Was first time out and went all wrong for me! Engine blew, which I new would happen as was knocking on arrival but I was hoping for a little more than 3/4 of a lap!!!

I think its time to covert from the CA18!!!!

CH1EF · 06-07-2008, 12:15

top day guys - thanks to all that organised it.

A massive difference from the couple of airfield days I've done and omg so much more fun in 3rd/4th gear!

kar1 · 06-07-2008, 13:01

From a spectators point of view it was great, Just wish i had my car lol

mrmugenman · 06-07-2008, 16:00

omg What an amazing day!

Nice to be able to use 3rd and 4th gear,

Could of done with some more skidy time but hey couldn't you always!

But saying that I did come back in after my second session with to blown tyres,my rear brakes were on fire and my radiator had exploded

I had a marshal come out with me too and I think he was buzzing from it just as much as me,

Thanks to everyone who made this happen and put my name down for the next one

Xaerobbo · 06-07-2008, 17:21

Was a good performance, mk2 green escort stole the show I think though, crowd really cheered him on from everywhere
