Its a mission to remember the numbers and write under the images. So the above are all i took. People in the pictures are Piggy and my mate Oli who did the whole day and came out in the car on crutches. We spent most of the day sat at quarry in camping chairs with the camera and go pro in hand. In one of the photos you can see my super new gimbal for the go pro with carbon extension. It gets close enough to the action and its super smooth so should be some good videos to come in the future.
Hightlights are always the drifting. best bit was when cones and bumpers fell off and everyone ginored red flags and just drifted through the debris.
I hadnt bought any track time but i bought 15 minutes for £40. It took an hour to queue to get sound checked as people were queuing in the sound check lane for track and people kept crashing every 5 minutes. I should have ignored hte one way system and have reversed into the sound check area as they were only sitting around having coffee the entire time. Guy infront in a blaze dturbo had no idea and was waiting for marshalls to send him to sound test so i told him what to do only to have him stop and chat to his mates infront of me... idiot. So i got sound checked at 4.30 when my session was 4.15... and then i finally got my 4.15 session at 5.15...
Car was great on track and only issue was that the exhaust started blowing horrifically. Footage is on piggys camera who wont be online for a while but hope that footage is good!
Then we drove home and did a few tunnel runs. Decent footage with the gopro and gimbal.
