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?

 

:yes:

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 :faint:

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 :D

Great day out folks!!! Only managed to get 2 runs in but still high on the adrenalin :D Queues were a bugger again but mostly because people kept dropping bits or crew needing a break :shrug:

 

Defo need to organise a day up there without the crowds if the weather holds. Ray? :stickpoke:

 

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 :blush: :twak: ;)

 

Anyway, grateful that chance let me run against that awsome machine :respekt:

 

Best run was 13.709 against a Civic type R which I creamed :devil: 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 :thumbs:

 

Right - you have a few days off fella - let's see the vids :Popcorn:

 

I'm off to enter my times into my new-fangled post-upgrade profile!!

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 :p

 

Can't wait for the next one. Maybe Sabrina will be down there with some Nitrous installed on the FTO :clap:

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. :respekt: Esp James for pulling a 13.09. Next time though we expect to see times in the high 12's please...........:D

 

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....................................... :tongue:

 

Anyways great day for sure. Nice to meet you all again

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 :p

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.
