cornimac Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 So what's the game? Should we go over there lunchtime-ish or later? Looking forward to a less hectic event. Ray promised to organise something too over the coming weeks but I'm still up for this weekend. (was going to say "stripping" but thought better of it). What shift are you working James? Convoy up again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 Well it's open quite early to 9pm, so we could say we'll leave at 2 so we can get there around 3/3:30. Gives us 3 hours to que to sign in and an hour to que for each run No i'm sure it'll be quiter. Shall we meet at south mimms for the southern lot again?? And Gaz have you got a stall or are you there for racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Im still planning on going, as yet dont know what time, will they let people sign on later in the day (ie account for ppl going home) as in the past if they got too many people in the morning it was tough - no track time.

terribleturner Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 Yeah, i recon they let people sign on all day like they did Sunday, and then close until enough people have done their runs. I think for insurance reasons they can only have so many people signed in at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornimac Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Great day out folks!!! Only managed to get 2 runs in but still high on the adrenalin Queues were a bugger again but mostly because people kept dropping bits or crew needing a break Defo need to organise a day up there without the crowds if the weather holds. Ray? : Anyway with my stock TT I ran a 13.843 1/4 mile against the Envy-machine which ran 12.143 (you weren't trying in the slightest were you??!!) I only got to the line first because you hung around on the start line, dude Anyway, grateful that chance let me run against that awsome machine Best run was 13.709 against a Civic type R which I creamed Man, that stuff's addictive - now I know why those folk spend so much on this. Great to see the usual suspects and meet new faces, Great convoy fun (what was that 80 leptons stuff about on the way back though, James?) Sorry I guessed you guys would hit the M25 so I left for the fun to be found at the end of the M1 Right - you have a few days off fella - let's see the vids I'm off to enter my times into my new-fangled post-upgrade profile!!

terribleturner Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 Great fun tonight, specially pulling my personnal best of 13.09 @110.29mph I'll try and get the video up tomorrow, Monday the latest, Will get the pictures up too tomorrow. Cornelius are you reffering to before we joined the M1?? I thought Simon was coming along side and when i floored it and looked over it was a Mini which sort of confused me Can't wait for the next one. Maybe Sabrina will be down there with some Nitrous installed on the FTO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
how_supra Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Had a cracking day - despite the queues and despite how cold it was once it got dark. Thanks Cornelius for the use of your lovely warm jacket. Did anyone else find the day far more laid back than last weekend? Congrats to everyone on their times. Esp James for pulling a 13.09. Next time though we expect to see times in the high 12's please........... Maybe Sabrina will be down there with some Nitrous installed on the FTO I'm really very tempted by this James, and you shouldn't be encouraging me But then again it would be most exciting....................................... Anyways great day for sure. Nice to meet you all again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 thanks to James for his emergency road side assistance It was like looking into my own death lying on the hard shoulder of the M1 When your back again Rush well go onto a "private" road and do some practise starts. Only took a few pictures as i didn't check the settings of the camera and they were all massive files (2032x1524) Just waiting for Photobucket to do it's job and i'll stick them up. Video will probably be tomorrow evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
