Absolutely awesome day yesterday, many thanks to those who organized and volunteered to marshall the corners

Thanks to everyone that showed up for making the day run easily. It was a good day and all appeared to have fun (even subaru owners with run big ends).

Some pics:

And it was the white 2 door Type R that ran it's bearings

Stink... no-one told him that he needed a baffled sump before using it at the track? I thought it was common knowledge now.

^ The worst thing is that we could hear the bearings start to rattle as he took off, but once he was gone there was nothing we could do. It also looked like it was a fast run but we had stopped timing by that time in the afternoon.

If you look closely it also has quad bike tyres on it :wink:

John was saying its running so much camber they still have all the nobbly bits on the inside edge as they never actually touch the road

Also just for fun heres a link to a video of me driving it before it was orange and when it still had the 2-stroke engine in it

Poor Sam, we were discussing baffled sumps on manfield recently as well :-(

If the person in the insane orange car wants to turn up to the Slipway autocross I'll pay his entry fee! If anyone knows him, feel free to tell him that and contact me :lol:

I have it on good authority that neil doesn't actually like to use his wheels at all, wears his tires out or something - you'd think things like that wouldn't faze him to much.
