Great day. Even the weather was the best I have seen for a couple of weeks. Many thanks to Northy for organising the booking.

Nice to meet you Fab. Well done for making it over. Hope you had a great day too. You left before I had the chance to say goodbye, but hope you had a good trip back and look forward to seeing you again at the next one

What an awesome day I had at this cheers to all involved in a very very eventful trackday. I'm safely home now and just finished unloading the mortally wounded 106 rallye off the trailer.

Should be some good videos cropping up from us over the next few days.

What a brilliant day ! Golf went well, even when it was called `that old Golf, you know, the one with the ironing board fastened to it...` (as I heard it described by some clio owners )

Got incar footage from almost every lap, will post when I can.

My wife took loads of photos, here`s one of Northy. Seems only fair seeing as he organised it for you lot. Nice to actually meet you too Northy :D

Great day out at Donny was had by all I reckon. Nice to see Northy and Mat hope Karen enjoyed her birthday and thanks for chocky cake! Respect to Fab for silly oclock ferry trip and nice to hear history of his well travelled williams. Nice to meet Coops and hope the water stayed in the engine at least till you got home! Many thanks to Foxy for several eventful laps, riding shotgun, watched you leave the tvr for dead on exit of redgate and then lol as you were watching the caterham then nearly went off on the exit! Was that lil moo we saw about a kilometre off on the grass at starkeys ? Work was very dull at 6. Cheers all, Jock.

Hehe it was indeed moo diving off onto the grass but only to get out the way of traffic when his high comp bodied vts engine threw a rod and holed his block!!!

There's an awesome video of it going bang called "peugeot 106 rallye trackday blow up" I can't link it from my phone so if someone could link or even better embed it that'd be great.
