Thanks to Tony, Rich and Daz for taking Tom out
Like I said to him "If you tell your mates at school tomorrow you have been at those speeds in those cars no one will belive you anyway "

Cheers everyone

it was a good day. nice to see some good cars there, no boy racers. craig ran it well, no doubt helped by the fact there wasnt any pr!cks there.

great fun seeing the one car (you know who you are) spinning out trying to keep up with adam and me in the RUF!

who got the clocked fastest time? the ruf hit a gps indicated 200 dead but no idea what the laser timer said?

if there was an award for best sounding it had to go to that stradale ferrari.

who was the guy in the porsche turbo who we went past on the outside of the corner by the burger van in the M3? the look on his face was priceless!


hope to be at the next one

echo everything said really, thanks too Craig / greg and all other helpers, sadly I had to leave before it dried out so only managed 168, but had it completely sideways for a complete corner, in and out of it

Thanks again everyone!

Cracking day Craig and Greg - Well Done!

Enormous gratitude to Derestrictor for letting me run his 993 a goodly number of times - what a simply stunning machine. I salute the Ubergruppenfuhrer and his unfeasibly manic mobile.

Also great to see everyone!!!

What a fabulous day

My thanks also, to Craig, Greg & Emma for making this an excellent day. Really great fun and very memorable. Look forward to the next one once this running in crap is over and done with.

Special thanks to DAZ, not only for my first ever run up Bruntingthorpe, but for keeping his word on the Ratburger. Which was surprisingly good! Well worth the trip.

Craig, Greg & Emma - just thanks.

To everyone else - nice to meet you and I hope everyone got a ride in the Noble that wanted it (I did seem to have a constant queue ), sorry about dashing at 2:30 but I had someone waiting for me at home

Anyone that missed it this time let me know and I'll made doubly sure you get a ride at the next event.

Four key moments.

1) Ballet dancing, a lot, in the rain
2) *Nearly* catching up 100+ yards on the Ruf through the U turn
3) A certain individual using the words f***, me, amazing, and "ohhhhhhhhhhh" a lot. You know you want one and I'll even get a Halfords stripe put on it for you

Video's up in the next few days.

J

Oh - and 4) not a problem with the car

Your username may be 'Joust' but henceforth you shall be known as 'Limpet'. The way that Noble just sticks and goes round corners is unbelievable! The way it carved through the infield that was most impressive. Thanks Justin

The only thing I'd fault is the paintwork.











It isn't nearly stripey enough.
