Haha I know, stu told me. As soon as I got in the car this morning it began to rain, I couldn't believe it! But I thought "oh well, at least we will have a shelter" doh!First two track sessions were uncontrollably wet. Third was bang on though. Dry track with some decent heat in my tires.
My friend bowers thought today was great, he should be joining the club soon and will be uploading some pretty decent photo's of the day.

Quite enjoyed the day once I had defrosted, the Harvester was warm at least Very impressed to see the Golf there and even see it go round track - shocking!
I take it Ryan didn't bin the car on his last session? I've not seen him since we left Combe and I've not heard him come past the house yet either...

He's alive!! Good on you mate, glad you enjoyed it. I would have stayed but I had to get home so my daughter could jump on my head and scream at me :s I have been searching other forums to see who has pics up. Yours are ok james, I don't blame you for not wanting to brave the wind and the rain... I didn't, I just sat in my evo, smoking and eating cake

Big thanks to everyone that turned up, proper good day as ever! Shame about the weather and hopefully we won't be finishing a certain Golf at 10 o'clock the night before so the next one should have the gazebo and be a little more organised!
Didn't get any pics as such (except a crap one of mine), but here's my vids from the 9:45 session... excuse the poor commentary!

Thank you all for attending, makes all the stress worth while when we have a nice full stand!!
Well disappointed with the weather, but the fact the golf was running, and running well more than made up for it!
Nice to see everyone, hopefully PPC will be dry!!
