Shed I/II is mildly interesting in the cornering angles it can achieve so should be worth a watch.

Still mulling over whether or not to come and spectate.

Will let you know if coming. How much just to sit in the car park and view the maniacs?

The nutter with the westfield is a champ...or is it chump,never could tell the difference between the two........... ;)
However on the day would you be so kind as to supply some straw bales..........as the "beast" is partial to the odd bale as a snack when passing.....through!!!!!

Only the best quality bale will do, you know!  As to the cornering angles on the Shed, they're there even in staight line.  Get a motorcycle cop to jump out in front of him 1/2 way round, that'll spice things up!! 8) ;D

ooops!!..............forgot about that incident....glad you reminded me.....I do prefer scantily clad ladies in maids uniforms though.because that would help to drive in a more erratic manner,more in keeping with track day spectacles ;D

Why does Wishy need maids to drive in an erratic manner?  I thought he did that anyway.  He's been watching my driving too much!! ::) ;)

Well, what can I say.  Great track day, really enjoyable.  I have now reached maturity (no chance) as my wheel nuts have now dropped!!  All now secure, so nothing flops around anymore.  Great to see the Shed going round, best laugh we've had in ages.  TIP.  Go to a track-day in beat up heap of sh*t, drive like a lunatic, and get extra laps for your effort, brilliant!!??

Well Beasty.......it's not what you know its who you know.

Anyway.Mark was obviously feeling sorry for me as Ihave not been out on a track for 15 years.

Also the little Red bus wheels do go round and round .......unlike the "Beast"!!!!!!!.....yours are more like clonk....clonk....clonk. Just like spotty the dog in the woodentops.

Well.... Even though I didn't go around this time it was the perfect pick me up after returning from warmer climes to see the Shed being driven in anger (or is that mild annoyance?) around a track. You don't normally see those cornering roll angles:)

I have a couple of pictures that I will post when I get a moment. (Don't laugh too loudly when you see them).

Will there be any other pictures posted on the Dreamracers site?

Shame about the sheared studs on the Beast. It was nice to see the contrast between roadgoing and race car. Cornering being the real difference. I guess there will be a few cars that will be needing new OSF tyres today.
 
I look forward to the programme for next year's events. Any plans yet?

Planing about 5 or 6 for next year, but will wait for the weather to improve...

Just got the piccies back, will scan/post them soon enough.  Sorry to hear about your nuts Ian, as I was out on the timing post at the time, didnt know what had happened or say "thanks for coming" and "bye" (same for you Wishy)

Got to admit, yesterday was a great laugh with a real mix and match of folks and equipment.  That chap in the Pulsar was a goddam nutter (fun to watch tho')

Wishy - you see I stuck some fibre glass on the sill of the Toyota in honour of the Espace.

Really enjoyed seeing the Shed out there, and the Beast...

Maybe a Xmas/New Year Track Day for the brave??
