Hi Mark,

So how many are coming to tomorrow's track bash then?

A man's got to believe in something. I believe I'll have another drink - W.C. Fields

Hey Mark,

W had a good time too. It was also good to give a couple of kids a bit of a ride around - they certainly seemed to revel in it.

Wishywashyman has also learnt a thing or two about what a 4WD car feels like when hunting for grip.

Got some digital photos, if they are any good I will post them here.

Let us know when you plan another.

Just off now to research some brake upgrades.........  ;)

Cool, cant wait to see the pics!

We are looking into a "track car" and not sure how much ragging the Sud will take - well more than Sean's Westfield anyway  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I have to apologise to Mark for thrashing both his Alfa's on that track!!

Have to admit that the museum was worth the trip on its own!!

I just felt a bit sorry for the poor guy who had problems with his Westfield/Seven kit car. Just how many things can go wrong in one day ??? I hope his journey back with the car and trailer was somewhat more uneventful...

Hey Skodie!  Fancy seeing you here.... ;D

Sean made it back OK with the yellow disaster zone.  He should have bought a car that was ready made  ::) ;)

I am already looking into another date for the next track day, will have more news by the end of the week

Hi Mark

What a fantastic day.Olly and I enjoyed the rides with Pretzel.

However I am sorely tempted to have a go in either "Shed Mk1 or Shed Mk2" next time,although not a quick as the scooby it should roll well into the corners. ;D

Just let us know when the next one is on and I'll be there.

And again.....thanks for the hospitality.....on the dat and Haynes Motor Museum is brill......!!
