CSF22 ClioSport Festival 2022 - Book Tickets Now!

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Just wanted to echo all that’s been said already.
I felt like a right gimp turning up on my own and not knowing anyone. But it was a top day and great to actually meet fellow virgins!!
Disappointing not to see any Merrells though.
Till next year. 👌

You were the other person I was trying to to think of! Great to meet you mate!

 

[Filters]

Well, I'm ruined

Highlights of the weekend for me....

Giving @The Handbrake Kid aka The CFS Harvester some tuition only to find 3 laps in that the mad sod was on standard discs and pads!
Que exit stage left at the chicane straight into the middle of the field

@Daniel for the passenger laps, what a machine that MK1 is. Full on giggle factory on steroids!

@Alistair14 for letting me hoof his car around for a few laps, cracking bit of kit fair play!

@Gus @Clio_fool @dann2707 @Yorkshire Pudding @DaveDreads @Alistair14 @DavidDave and everyone else in the dysfunctional family corner, such a good bunch. Thanks for the laughs around the fire till silly o'clock Good to put some names to a few new faces too @Touring_Rob, @Stefan. and anyone else whos names I've forgotten 😅

A big thank you to everyone that donated to DementiaUK for some hot laps with us, wicked to see the grins on peoples faces as they got out of the car. Glad to see no one threw up too, saved us on the clean up bill!

Biggest thank you however, goes to all the staff and admins that made the weekend happen the time and effort you all put in for us this year is massively appreciated. Roll on CFS 23👌

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Still two hours away from home, been here since 12:30 or so waiting

What's up with it?

 

[Louis]

What's up with it?

Broken down I think

 

[Mr Squashie]

What a great weekend, had an absolute blast despite not having met anyone in real life before, aside from @Yorkshire Pudding briefly one afternoon outside his work. By the end of the weekend it honestly felt like I'd known some of you for years.

Big thank you to the mods and admins, not only for organising the event, but for being so welcoming and friendly.

Special thanks go to @dann2707 for sabotaging bleeding my brakes before I went out on track, and @Filters for showing me where someone with functional brakes should be braking 😏

The real MVP of the event though was the farmer, who somehow made his field as smooth as the surrounding track. My only complaint is that the visibility was poor, so maybe he could trim it before our next outing?

Oh, and this mad c**t who was flying around while we were eating pizza 👌

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

That thing was mint! Just suddenly appeared doing mad s**t

Someone said it was one of the marshals 🤷 looked loads of fun whoever it was.

It was the BBQ police scoping out who had BBQs

True story!

Why is your name still The Handbrake Kid, I thought we were going with The Crop Duster?
(until it gets changed to the next stupid thing you do)

Literally everyone I mentioned it too about the "no BBQ" signs on the bins, thought the same as us, as in no BBQs IN the bins lol

I couldn't work out how to change it 😂

You really are a f*ck up.

glad you enjoyed the car, thanks for the kind words

 

[Krarl]

Honestly I've had such a f**king mint weekend with you lot

Paul turning into Peter Sutcliffe halfway through the night was a highlight🤣

 

[Stefan.]

I didn't get home til 5pm

f**k me I feel shattered. A good 350 miles covered in the golf

Cracking weekend

you have a good point, I believe a promise was made around the camp fire 🤔

@The Handbrake Kid do the honourable thing 😂

Wasn't sure which thread to put this in so feel free to move it to the the CSF22 pictures thread.

Trying my best to keep up with Max Coates ex Clio cup racer. I was sweating after this session 🥵

What was the beeping at the end? Manifold danger?

 

[Mcaff]

Massive thank you to all of the admin and anyone who had hands on putting this event on. We will be back. I didn’t personally get to speak to many people and felt a bit antisocial as a result. I’ve posted on here about my health not being tip top so things like this are always a stretch for me, come Saturday night I was gubbed but had the best of times

Great to put some faces to names and chat to who I did speak to.

Huge thanks to @R29TJR for the good craic in the pits and the run out in that spectacular caterham!
And a huge thanks to the lad (sorry I forgot your name) that works at blyton with the track 172 cup that showed me round the track for some laps and all the tips plus showing me round the ginettas!
Apologies to anyone I held up on track or didn’t get out the way of in time. Taking it on track really exposed to me how much of a road car it is. Was a handful to try and drive as quick as some of the other clios. But I had an absolute blast and made all the better that both van and car made it back in one piece! Was well worth the journey.

You did well to keep him in sight, he was f*cking rapid in that thing and he wasn't even using the curbs, I asked him what percentage he was at and he said 90%, the other 10% was the curbs he was avoiding so he wasn't too hard on the car.

Was good to finally meet you mate, and @Ash J
Did you have enough beer in the end? I thought I had more left over than there was

 

[JB21]

Alarm for the oil temp above 120°c

Yes mate. Bit of a hangover today but nothing to brutal. Cheers for the beers.

Next time, note taken - 8 cans isn't enough 😅

Yeah the kerbs where harsh AF.

 

[Ocrlew]

Sounds like you all had a great time! Hopefully next year I will have a car to join! If not il Nick my brother turbo 197 for the day

i wasn’t at the event, but I saw a lot of you drive through my village. all the cars I saw look great.
Saw sash, Daniel, cub, and a few others

 

[Adey.]

Yeah the kerbs where harsh AF.

straight-lined that first chicane pretty well mind

 

[Mcaff]

Who was the lass that was taking pictures of the track time? Are her pictures going to be posted on here or does she have a link to them at a later date?

 

[Robbie Corbett]

On the way home there was a white 200 in the services, chap having a burger... I went over and asked if he had a good weekend.... turns out he was nothing to do with CS and had not been at Blyton Seems the club has more people to reel in still.

So off putting coming round that last section then suddenly seeing a person walking toward you on the infield. 😱😅

 

[andybond]

Well, we dont do all the admin / setup / organisation / fees so prolly the least we can do

That and the MASSIVE Toblerone that @DaveL485 sources for us.

 

[terryc101]

Gutted I couldn't make it 😪 maybe next year the clio will be in a fit state.

 

[TRH_Racing]

Who the hell are you with? That's crap!

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Your mates all looked like they would have a forum username Lou. Minecraft forum or something.

But yes, I very nearly asked him if he was on CS 😂😂😂 I told him about all the men and Clio's in a field and he said he would check it out.

New member commission incoming.
