I've approached Roamer imaging, and the guy is coming on Sunday to take pics of the track day, images in both electronic and various sized print form will be available to order from his website www.roamer.com

He is getting photographic access to the track so will be in all the best places.

Previews will be on his site after Wednesday next week.

Blimey OllyTB how many times did you spin off? think I counted at least 3!

Top day tho, driver ettiqute was no where near as bad as I had feared it would be on a trakzone day & esp when I saw loads of Novas turn up I did fear for the worse! but i must say they were all pretty good about looking in the rear view & puling over to be fair.

Excellent day.

Was a good day eh mr Lizard!
< hands OLLYTB cream for his gravel rash >



Had a fun day on Sunday 'cept ruining all 4 Clio cup slicks...After losing the back end at about 90mph down Craner curves. woops.

Here's a compilation vid of various sessions, shot from the rear strut brace , includes a spin at McLeans and my mate Chris murdering my road tyres in the final two clips, good job they are cheap 195/50s

Right click, save as 25mb.

Another vid shot from a mini-camera on the OSR 1/4 , no sound and 5mb

How not to take the infamous Craner curves.

i span twice, so where your 3 comes from i don't know. once was on a parade lap and once was into the gravel lol. I had a good day but i had a different roll bar on the back which had cocked up the setup of the car and my poor driving didn't help, it caught me out just the TWICE mind! i'll be back very shortly
