The Cadwell ones I took came out pretty well actually. Some interesting angles if you walk from the restaurant down through the bends towards Shugs corner.

David - you need to ask JUlie for a bigger lens at Xmas!

If I'd been thinking I should have brought mine given I didn't actually spend as much time on track.

Shows you just how lucky we were with the weather!

Ps - Ferg, we now have photographic evidence of you on an apex :thumbsup

I had a few pax laps with Ferg before a red flag stopped play.
He hit every apex :-)
I was quite amazed at the corner speeds of that wee car, especially considering it had 200+ KG of Scottish muscle onboard lol.
Made some strange noises in the bends though, new springs for Xmas Ferg? :thumbsup

I was chatting to Kenny & he told me that he had driven my Exige on the Spaz trip & said that the brakes were sh1te......
I was taken a back a wee bit with this - so i gave him my car to do 12 or so laps round Cadwell to see what he thought of them now...... :wink:
Think i made his day..... :thumbsup

Two negatives make a positive but only in Scotland do two positives make a negative - 'Aye right.'

Great pics David. :-)

Ooft Andy, I obviously have more work to do on my lines. ;-)

With both Kenny and I on board (Muscle...roflmao) the Nitrons NTRs were struggling to contain the body roll. Certainly I need to start by running the shockers stiffer, and now I understand why stronger springs are more often specified.

Andy passing me and Phil like we're standing still into the first corner at Oulton. Love the flashing rear brake lights. :thumbsup
