    Japfest 2008

    Anyone go, any pics? Let this one pass this year as I wanted to go to the BTCC at Thruxton, got to the end of my road at 7:30 this morning and had to wait 5 minutes as (and yes, I counted) just over 30 Skylines, 8 Supras and 5 or 6 of those Starlet things passed at the junction! A few minutes...

    What 911 is this?

    I spent half an hour at Castle Combe yesterday as I was passing anyway, Porsche Club GB had a track day. I'm getting used to what most 911s are now but not sure on this one..? 997 GT3 maybe? It looked similar to the Blue one below (which was a GT3) but was lacking a cage. Here are...

    Castle Combe Performance Car Action Day 2008

    After a gorgeous week here in Wiltshire we were treated to a nice downpour for the first Action Day of 2008. As expected Quarry + Rain was quite eventful, lots and lots of spins but thankfully not too many major offs in the morning. I only stayed for the first 4 hours but managed to get quite...

    Took the "new" D50 for a sunset spin

    Picked up my second D50 from here a few weeks back (cheers JJ!) so I thought I would take it for a trial this evening. Lived here for 6 months now and have never investigated the sunset opportunities, so I walked out at 7:45 this evening and within minutes I was overlooking all the fields that...

    Plastic War Mini-Project

    "Speed" - a cheeky request

    Basically, I need some help, which of these pics screams "speed" at you the best? I want something that will stand out amongst hundreds of pics, and I can't choose between these 8. Any thoughts? And maybe also why you are choosing a particular pic. 1 2 3 4 5 6...

    Cleaning a brand new car?

    Picked up the new car yesterday, Panther Black and as expected it's covered in swirl marks. Whats the best way of tackling it? I don't have a pc but have loads and loads of products from my Clio Cup ownership days.

    Very clean Cup parked along Westway today at Castle Combe, plate ending WWO if I remember correctly. I was stood just along from it taking pics. Also a Racing Blue 182 in Quarry Car Park, and a Silver 172 Cup in the car park over behind Bobbies.

    Castle Combe - how to take Quarry (in 1974)

    Awesome video... http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-8349353250282800022&q=castle+combe&total=931&start=0&num=10&so=1&type=search&plindex=1 Loving the Health & Safety back then, a slightly raised grass verge to put the spectators on is about as technical as it gets!

    Renault 5 Turbo 1 & RS Turbo -Airfield

    I figured these deserved their own thread, as it doesn't really fit with the Clio stuff in the other Media section. Both looked stunning, couldn't quite believe how good the RS Turbo was, both in terms of its condition and how quick it was.

    Airfield Sprint Pics - March 9th 2008

    Another great day at the airfield, despite the weather (some extremely harsh hail stones, several times) everything went pretty well. Big thanks to Steve (Impreza) for a hugely fast and impressive lap, I was a bit speechless after! I 'took one for the team' and stayed out there for the most...
