Glad it went well Alan.

Still gutted I couldn't go.
Next time for sure though, Outlon park ftw! I got an email the other day about an Open pit lane day at oulton for around 120quid in the next few months.

Paul^p · 12th December 2011, 02:51

I'm definately going to it

Paul^p · 12th December 2011, 03:09

One or two photos i got of you mate (none of you on track unfortunately, but we'll get them photos when they email you them

)

AlexB^p · 12th December 2011, 07:19

Looking like it was a good day then man!!

Nice bit of a sucsess it seems on the car if only a wheel bearing went get it out on track in some decent weather now lol

Might need to do a day with you at some point

Rich84 · 12th December 2011, 07:20

Glad she done you proud mate, not bad for an accidental eBay win

Darkslider · 12th December 2011, 07:39

Good job, looking forward to seeing the pics! Mine just needs putting back together now and two new tyres then I'll be able to start looking around

Alanapone^p · 12th December 2011, 17:37

Cheers Paul

Do you mind if I pinch them photo's?

I've just emailed the guys about the track photos so hopefully i'll have them in a couple of days... I bet theirs loads to sift through.

I'm just rendering the aLapRecorder videos that I tried out and I'll get them added a bit later on tonight.

Rich84 · 12th December 2011, 17:51

Lovin the hi vis jacket to go with the loader, makes you look professional

Alanapone^p · 12th December 2011, 18:30

Cheers. We looked "proper" in the van with the High-Vis and the tools out... Shame I forgot the sockets for my socket set! Took the ratchets and spanners but no bloody sockets!!!

Alanapone^p · 12th December 2011, 20:17

Here's a few photo's from loading the car up, the day at Anglesey and getting home.

Videos are taking a while to sort. I'll get them up asap and the track day organisers are sending me the photos that they took as soon as the can sort them all out.

Rich84 · 12th December 2011, 20:19

hahahahaha love the SSC sticker creepin in on here

gaffer tape on the mirror?

rorz_vts · 12th December 2011, 20:29

yea the clips broke/missing that holds it in place nothing a bit of wire wouldn't cure

pics look good mate the vtr looks mad with dark wheels after seeing it for so long with white rims

Alanapone^p · 12th December 2011, 21:36

Yeah, I need to rig the wing mirror when I get chance. Had to stop on the A55 coming home to remove it cos the gaffa gave way and Paul got a bit nervous as he didn't want it lodging in his windscreen!

The VTR looks a bit sinister with the black wheels on doesn't it? I kind of like it for a change though. I'm thinking they need a proper refurb though. I've also got a set of VTS rims that I need to finish refurbing. maybe they can be my winter projects. Give all the wheels a refurb! Might do them all black as I liked the black and red combo.

These videos are taking longer to sort as I sat in front of the telly for the first time in over a week! got the last few frozen planets watched! AMA-ZING!!!!!!

Ahh well, I'll get onto them now.

Alanapone^p · 12th December 2011, 23:29

Here we go... First up, Sorry mate BUT I had to... Pauls best lap!

saxokid100 · 13th December 2011, 01:33

Good vid that Alan!! track seems alot better now theyve improved it!!

Alanapone^p · 13th December 2011, 08:46

Here's one of a few laps I did. The lap with Pauls spin is part of this.

saxokid100 · 13th December 2011, 13:42

Great stuff Alan!! need to get my metro vvc up there for trackday now........

Alanapone^p · 13th December 2011, 17:06

Do it Neil!

That track is amazing as a beginner/intermediate track. Loads of run-off and hardly anything to hit... the things you might hit are tire walls and you'd almost be at a stop by the time you reached them!
