Glad you all had a good day! I got called out to Burnley to fix a VPN issue so I couldn't even have my half day off
Martin - glad the car ran well, when are the coilovers coming?!
Yeah that guy is on the Westfield forum. B16A with forged internals and all cammed up. Races in the NSSCC (Team Pugwash).

I've seen (and heard) that old civic before. Last time was at croft for the 2012 VTEC Challenge. He was an 'invitational class' and I think he cleared up in both races!
It really does sound immense, massive vtec bwaaaahhhh effect eh
I wish I'd been there in my s2kip today. Looked like great weather and some interesting metal there.
Instead I did an entire lap of Tenerife in a a 5 door LHD manual Yaris!

Peter Dixon, really nice chap. He didnt clean up at Croft though it is very quick, and handy driver.
Will post up a bit more later, but great to see everyone.
I have to say, that was probably more red flags in one day than ive seen in a race season. Not good.

You are so right on the red flags, the most I've ever seen, as you found yourself some folk only got in a warm up lap before they were out again, poor old martin seemed to get one nearly every time he went out, and Paul always seemed to manage 12 lap runs I think he must have kept going around the paddock

Great day folks. It was my first track day in the S2000 and it was so much fun. Loved the way it drove and its hooligan nature. Never got tired of hoofing it out of hislops, knickerbrook and lodge. Apart from uprating the brakes slightly to grooved & vented the rest of the car felt perfect.
True what's been mentioned about the red flags though. Quite a lot of break downs and "offs" throughout the day. That corrado was a strange one (never in all my years there seen someone go off on the back of Shell Oils corner ) Marshalls did a great job as usual getting everyone out back to the pits fast and the guy with the "whistly" dentures was on the tanoy letting everyone know the track would be open in minutes which it did
Big thanks to Steve and the team at Trackaction for putting on another superbly run day at a great price.

The organizers Dealt with them very well and it was a top day,
I was there a few weeks early in much cooler conditions and the morning session had an ice on track warning there was 1 red flag all day,
