SIDC Track Session - Saturday 17/03/12

Not spotted a thread on this yet, so I thought I'd start one.

Wasn't sure if I'd make it as I trailer the car up (in case it breaks, at least I can get home) with fuel cans, tools etc., and I just sold the pick-up. But just in time I tracked down a replacement tow-car (another V8 so 16+ litres of V8-ness in the garage now).

Looks like a good turnout with a decent mix of cars. Lets hope for a dry day

I'll be there too. First outing in the wee Clio. Really looking forward to it, here's hoping for some good weather. Hoping to try and get a few pax laps too

Tut tut! Just greed that is.

But as the saying goes; There's no replacement for displacement

It was indeed a nice dry day, after a bit of a cold and foggy start. Driving standards were superb throughout the day with a good mix of cars.

A few of my snaps from the event:

No problemos - I was going to post it up anyway with a few others, but after the 3rd attempt to get the others up on YouTube I've given up. One of the best KH outings so far - great organisiation (thanks again John), great manners on track and a nice day as well - just how a track day should be

Most of the banter and videos are on TrackScotand since Scottsh track day topics seem to be a bit of a pariah in the Scotland section of PH, more's the pity.

A fine mix of cars and even 2 other TVRs. I noticed Bob's was a bit smokey at the end, but as it wasn't in the pits after the session I'm guessing it was OK and drove home? Hope it's nothing serious.

Roll on the next one.

Can only agree this was one of the best SIDC trackday I've done. Thanks John
