It was pretty cold and wet in the pit lane!
Car looked awesome in my mirrors Ali. Good drive home?

Great run yep, went myself to get used to it. Running in so taking it easy but plenty quick enough to dispatch normal traffic. I went Glendevon to Dunning then Perth, Glenshee, Tarland and back roads home.

I've bonded with it already, elise like but with better ride. :)
Glad to hear you took the long way home! Have you washed it yet? :cheers

Good day today as always with sidc days! Thanks David for selling me your slot :thumbsup

Was good to meet some more people today and nice drive home in convoy with (I think) lazy donkey and ddtb.

Conditions made for some interesting moments but with only 1 red flag in the whole session right at the end Its been the least stoppages I've seen at a track day which was very impressive.

This was just as the weather was getting slightly better.

Mark, you're in this one. :)

Watch on YouTube

The sound blips are an issue in my editor. Think I've solved it for the next one.

Big thanks to John for organising another great day at KH,

The weather certainly made it an exciting day, I had an awesome time and managed to burn off 50Ltr of fuel before 11.30.
Nice putting some faces to Avatars.

Ali's new Evora looked stunning, great colour.

Another thanks to John - had a good day although the weather wasn't kind. Here's a video of one of the wetter sessions. The sequential gearbox and flatshifting is working well and that makes driving the car in these conditions so much easier :)

Correct. Good to meet you today! Assuming I haven't met you before. Which I don't think I have. Possibly did. Not sure. Getting old. Anyway the sentiment is there :D
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Blue Evoraz rulez. Nice one Ali. Spotted it parked up. Apols for not making the pit lane, but the Fords Junior are not permitted and we were sheltering in the "grandstands" most of the time.

Entertaining to watch, esp Kinger "Mr Sideways" :-)

James' car of the day was the White Evora. Well done Martin!

I thought it was enforced as much as the decibel noise limit and refueling. I have certainly seen plenty of toddlers, especially Sanjoy's, though that was in the garage and not the pit lane wall.

I was told that it was fifteen, but if they were accompanied with an adult then it was ok.

This was the track at its driest really. Following Ron's S1 this time with Scott having a shot after a few car issues.

There was a good showing of S1s, of which I appeared to be behind blue ones a lot. :lol: :cheers

And mine were back in there yesterday although I need to get some ear defenders for R as he really doesn't like the up close noise.

Only there for 5 mins so perhaps we were. It noticed.
