Myself and son, Pete were at Croft on Sunday. The weather gods were kind to us, as other than the first session (damp) it remained dry throughout the day. Bit coooooool late afternoon, but hey, it's March, and it's Croft!

Some pics:

My car, with a megablade behind ..




Pete's car behind an S2000 powered beast..




And some others..

R1, followed by Busa




Me behind a Zetec powered car




Pete behind, I think, a 1.6 VX car






And a couple of vids

Me, among the caterhams.

and

Pete, trailing the flaming S2000

Enjoy..

Looks like a cracking day out there.

'tis a pity I missed it, but there is no way I could get past their noise test with my current set up.

Currently investing in a quieter can and new airbox!

Yes, that was us.

My girlfiend had a passenger ride out in the white 211 and loved it.

I know the guy with the black one and had a spin down the road, what a machine.

They are both racing them this year....

Is this your g/f sat in the passenger seat?


Edited

That's not her that must have been his wife..
Julz went out in the last session and afterwards she had a big grin on her face that said it all...

I rang up earlier in the week to try and get on myself but there were already 8 reserves by then..

I think it will be a case of booking well in advance this year trackdays are obviously becoming more and more popular each year...

I was there as well black R1 Striker with cage, as was my mate with black Toyota Striker. The Quattro is owned by a garage owner friend. The wires were showing on the edge of his tyres at the end of the day! He has another sprint Quattro which is unbelievably fast.

I was told the Porsche GT3 RS was turned away on noise, he had travelled from Northampton!

Any pics of the Westys appreciated.
I've got higher res photos (the ones I've posted in this thread are cropped from bigger pics) from the intermediate and expert groups only, free on request. Only using a wee Fuji, so nothing exeptional, but free!

Andy,

Yes that's us above. If you have any other pics I wopuld be grateful of them. fishywick@tiscali.co.uk

The Quattro has about 270bhp but as I said above he has a Sport hillclimb car which, no exaggeration, has nearly 800bhp.
