I had a fantastic time too - a thoroughly enjoyable few days with a jolly good bunch of people, making the trip lots of fun both behind and away from the wheel. Can't wait to go back again! :D

 

Chris and I thought this trip was particularly well organised and worked very well from start to finish so thanks go particularly to the Nums for making it happen. :thumbs:

 

Hope everyone got home OK...

James is already sorting the details out for a september trip:eyebrows:

 

Glad to hear you guys got back with no incidents, sounds like you have had a good time.

September trip; I'm planning to be over there sometime in september. Should be a LOT quieter on track and easier to get booked into accommodation.

:D WOW What a Five days ! ! great place to stay so close to the circuit enterence, fantastic company, and the weather wasnt too bad most of the time, great food on the nights out, well done to James and Simon for organising it all, everything went like clock work apart from me losing the convoy :rolleyes: but found the Hotel anyways cant lose me that easily :p

 

BIG BIG thanks to Simon, James and Mike for getting my engine running on both Turbo,s !! Just got my track tickets and the track shuts for a couple of hours with that Honda S2000 going up in flames and taking a biker with it with all the Oil he put on the track :blink:

 

BIG thanks to Henk for the Photo,s and the ferrying passengers to our eating places the big Merc came in handy ;)

 

Staggering run times by James and Simon just shows to get the cars well prepped and good tyres them Toyo R888s are the way forward for the track ...............until it rains :innocent: Mike and myself had a hoot in the rain on monday night we passed soooooooo many cars on that lap :D

 

the only downer on the weekend was Mikes Turbo going sick on the way home Hope its all sorted soon and without any more cost Mike,

 

Cheers

Damn dude that was great to watch. Are you running different tyres then Big num? It looks like you're really holding the track there. Good lines too. You've got that Supra well sorted.
