My wife has taken lots of pics of all cars inc S2000's so I will post them up later on.

Nice to meet some of you guys. I kept the S2000 in the car park and used the polo instead, was able to hassle a BMW M Coupe , a Westfield and a few other quick cars out the way so it wasn't too shabby.

Sorry to see your car chewed up Chris!

I was there in my berlina s2k. Passengering though. It was an epic day, some fab laps in bazs ATR. Also Andys ATR was superb fun, really bizarre how it stays on the road at those speeds. Baz, you scalped many a Bmw in the morning sesh.

Was really good to see some S2K's on track today.........and hats off to the 3 of you as I was too much of a girl to even consider going on track in mine!

For those that haven't put 2 and 2 together, I was in the MCB one that was parked up with the ATR's, and then did a taxi run to Chester in the Black ATR to help out Chris.

Chris, Andy will do everything he can to get your car back on the road as quickly as possible, I'll make sure of it lol

Tony, can't believe you went out with Andy in the ATR race car....... I'm married to him but wont even set foot in it with him driving!!!

Wicked day. Managed 200 track miles in the ATR and just wished it had stayed wet!

Biggest relief had to be discovering we had warped a spark plug electrode when experiencing sudden loss of power going over hill top. With over 200K on the clock I though well this is it! Many thanks to VTEC direct for fixing the problem with new set of plugs


And yes mugging the BMW M coupe in the wet did warm the cockles Toe All that power and no grip

Oh and a splendid job once again by trackaction online. I've been to many of their days at Oulton and can highly recommend them. Giving 4 people those free trackdays from the lucky dip draw was a great idea. Never seen any other track company offer this

Some pics of the day....


It will buff out Chris, no problem..


Steering rack snapped

Apologies for the following blurry images. My wee little Canon Ixus 950iS was struggling at 16x zoom with all that testosterone speed!





Breadvan was really moving after lunch


NOTHING past the Vtecdirect monster.... Nor yours Baz.




My car was busy then.... sleeping!

Sorry about your car Chris. I hope you get it sorted soon.

The day started a bit frightening, but got a lot better when a dry line appeared.

Nice speaking to some of you yesterday... and great photos Robin...

You were having some really good laps later in the day as you learnt the track. Impressive

And I agree, cracking photographs Robin
