Haynes South/South West Trackday Pics

[ukaskew]

Had an awesome day at Haynes Motor Museum today, great little twisty circuit which was really fun to fly around. Good bunch of people as always and the weather was spot on.

Anyways, 100 pictures now uploaded and available full size here...http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/gallery/1645102, tried to include a bit of everyone but if you want more of a particular car give me a shout and I will be happy to sort out a few more...apart from Nik as I was running straight after him so never really got a chance to get many!

A selection anyhow...

Briefing, including notification of a 15 minute 'wedding break', not everyday you get that at a track day...

[bunzee]

Oops @ the crashes - hope everyone was OK

Great pics - lots of 3 wheel action!

 

[GarethM]

great pics

love the 3 wheels pics

 

[ChorleyFM]

Thats a good day out, i did the last one in a Valver, top fun, they let you do it without helmets?

 

[ukaskew]

Too much 3 wheel action to photograph today, every Clio was up on 3 wheels at least three or four times per 1 minute lap. Great to watch!

No helmets required, although I think nearly all of us had them if needed.

 

[GarethM]

how did dan crash the blue mk1 172??

 

[Rich]

Great shots a ever Chris.

Not good to see the damage. Weather looks good, been raining on and off here.

 

[ajketley]

great pics but own up who crashed?

 

[ukaskew]

They both continued running for the rest of the day, no real harm done as far as I am aware, just cosmetic.

Garf, Dan slid sideways off a corner, the wheel dug into the grass and took the tyre off. He put a spare on, popped the injured one down to the service station to put air in it, and was then back on!

 

[unofficialPete]

amazing images! really jealouse of your camera and mine cost more! yet to get home and see my images, don't think they'll be as good will see...


...and yeah only there for the morning and feeling the sun burn!

 

[MarkCup]

[Blue4Ever]

Cracking pics. Loving the 3 wheeled action. Bit of a nightmare with the accidents though. Danlp's was already a bit battle scared wasn't it!? Deffo gonna need some front end work in the bodyshop!

 

[Nafoff]

[Tucks]

Amazing pics there Chris.The cars yesterday were looking great going round the track.

 

[Dan@SJM]

Great Pics there! tbh my off looked alot worse than it was, as on the corner right on the apex was a dip, and that unsettled the car and i was already on the power so couldnt power out of it to pull it straight.Berst bit was only the tyre popped off the rim!

 

[Maz]

[Nafoff]

[Rich]

Dont be silly, Freebone is in bed with it on

 

[TomS]

[Nafoff]

thats the seconfd accusation of me sleeping with rich in 2 days....not happy with that

rich would not be worthy of 1) me sleeping with him...and 2) me wearing the thong for him

back on subject please i think..lets not bog down a good thread with thong talk.....

 

[Rich]

Who else has alleged this? Freebone is here now btw

 

[sergio-gordini]

[Nafoff]

Who else has alleged this? Freebone is here now btw

[ukaskew]

...and I finally have some pictures of me! Have never had any before as obviously I can't take them of myself, but the missus got a few for me.

S25 on 3 wheels (just), got to be a first!

 

[Nik]

thong talk on threads is now tiresome.... agreed

I think you need a ceremonial thong burning at the next meet, to put and end to thong talk once and for all

 

[TomS]

lol Nik...

 

[Nafoff]

maybe an idea..but we can't do it unless the person who has got it has found it

 

[Ben j]
