Cant believe I didn't manage to bump into you buddy (or realise you were on track)
Yeah I was parked next to you for a few hours and thought I'd see you about but couldn't see you for the life of me haha

Must of been while I was wondering round, I was hardly on the stand all day in all honesty as although Tower is my favorite corner on the track to drive it's not particularly interesting to watch there. Not sure I've got any pics of your car mate sorry.

unless you're doing video, you won't want a tripod - if i see you with one i'm going to tap you very gently on the head with it
that and your photos look great!

Thank you Tom and Ruan,Chris for the photo look ace and as Damien has said better than the ones we paid for.
Pretty good day,weather was great did a extra session(thanks for the fuel Damien ) car was spot on apart from the exhaust. Ns2r more absolutely incredible,so much grip,Car felt radiculously planted.
They where some knobs in mark 1 escorts treating the curcuit as a rallycross with literally no fucks givien.Also in one of my session I had a civic cut me and a vectra up at camp entered way to late,got it sideways then grassed it

My 206 and other 306s all reached about 110-115, most cars of similar weight and power are also the same. It's the corner entry/exit speed where they differ.
