Well done mate. At least that hill is wider than Doune. Went to watch today and its bloody tight. Was dry most the day then heaven opened up and the nutters were still pushing hard. A few bent wishbones in the meadow and a cosworth Seirra that dropped is propshaft in a shower of sparks!
That was the championships all wrapped up for the year.

I will be adding some pictures from the weekend to the Harewood website tomorrow hopefully. Not sure if there is one of your car as I haven't looked at what I have been sent yet.

Tony - I will be using some of yours again, many thanks for them, some really good pics.

Sorry Mark had a good look through all the pics i took and that was the only one of your car.

I cant believe it over 700 pic and only one of you, i was sure there were more.

And no i was not the guy with the big white lens, i was one of the ones with a small white lens. That big white lens was a 400mm F2.8 and they currently sell for over £5000 i can only dream of things like that.

Tony.

Andy thanks again for using some pics.

mookaliod,

don't mean to offend but you appear to have quite a bit of bodyroll in your first pic, have you considered stiffer springing to help with cornering? mk are also doing an arb now as well which might be worth considering..

Ned.

Video at Harewood is done by Mad Video - short clip on their website but you don't feature (usually a good thing as they include the bits people got wrong for that!).

Thanks for that Andy I'll Have a look

Ned, I think it's an optical illusion caused by me being up on the kerb if you look at the front wings in relation to the headlights they are pretty level

thanks for the arb tip off

If cars get close enough for that we have big problems!! One car at a time on hillclimbs. Actually, at Harewood it is four and occasionally 5 cars at any time, but spaced out.

Just checked and they seem to be there to me. I was worried I forgot to post tehm, but just checked from a different machine to the one I use for creating and uploading so they should be OK.
