CSF23 The CSF 2023 Picture & Video Thread

[MarkCup]

I'm looking forward to your videos Mark! Had some fantastic laps with you.

The footage has come out looking spectacular, the sunshine beautifully highlighted your crumpled boot.

I should be done with editing Bedford in a day or two so I can soon get on with Anglesey...chronological vids will follow, hopefully by the end of the week.

Can of the strong stuff as well before heading back out on track? Mad man 🤣

I need a new hair dresser.

You’re actually balder than me. Fair play on the cover up job though, I didn’t notice in person.

This may or may not have been mentioned extensively on both Friday and Saturday nights 🤣

It's a hair system I've had fitted, unfortunately the hair system was taken from @J-J

Poor b*****d looked like Hellboy after being in the sun all day on Saturday

Was well impressed with his hair dressing machine. Was Cayman pace right out the box on road tyres.

Well that's nothing to boast about 👀

 

[Danith]

Who were the guys in the Mk4 200/220's there?

They were remarkably close to each other weren’t they….next year I’ll have proper tyres on the Cayman as well!

f**k off, don't tar me with that brush, at least I had the decency to chop mine off when it got that bad!

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

It was nice to finally put faces to names for @J-J @Touring_Rob @Simon1975 and @Call Me Dangerous Dave

Proper nice fellas.

Also I’m ashamed to say that I also didn’t immediately recognise @Danith when he came to talk to me about my car. When you said you were buying James’s car I spent about 5 minutes thinking who the hell is James, and then it dawned on me you meant @Ol’ Tarby 😂

So sorry mate! We have met before but the last time was in darkness around a log fire at CSF a few year back 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

It was a pleasure to meet you and Mini Ron as well buddy!

Ha it's ok. Yeah it's been dark CSF nights before. All these name changes got me stumped too. James was just called James before on this, then Ol Tarby. I wondered who the frig is this ol tarby guy posting on my threads for about 2 months.
I thought I'd cursed the new motor by asking you about yours when James said he had a 'check injection' fault on his way up there, but turns out was another Renault ripper.

There were loads of folk I saw, that I've only just realised who they are too.

Yeah those bloody name changes! Someone needs shooting for those! 🤷‍♂️

 

[Crayola]

I'm just glad you didn't f**k with Chode Lint otherwise my joke this weekend would have been for nothing and I'd have been £15 out of pocket 🤣

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Yeah don't worry mate, it was my van haha!

Made my day when the kids were watching you on track asking which one of you in the car was Cho and which was De Lint

 

[Danith]

Yeah don't worry mate, it was my van haha!

Renaults galore

 

[Touring_Rob]

Yeah don't worry mate, it was my van haha!

Felt quite emotional when Ron said you weren't going to be there. Dick.

 

[S24NRC]

Anyone know the lad with the Silver 182 here?

The guy in the Yaris GR was telling me he'd parked up there and that white pickup of one of the staff/marshalls had blindly reversed into it, caving the driver's rear quarter in.

Felt sorry for him as it was a mint low miler.

That was my mate Harry, ruined our weekend tbh. The lad driving the ranger was a complete and utter pillock about the whole thing, not a single phrase resembling an apology left his mouth. Infuriating.

They're getting taken to the cleaners for it, and rightfully so. Circuit management were great to deal with on the day, and extremely sympathetic, so hopefully their insurance coughs up in good time.



And don't worry- we started taking the piss out of him within the first 7 seconds of it happening, as true mates should lol

It took @DaveDreads ages to get it. Then again he hates the name changes🤣

Nowhere near as emotional as me mate I was the most miserable c**t in the world Saturday afternoon/night

There was a right rear quarter for sale on eBay not long ago. Genuine NOS.

😬 I popped in the office as you lads were dealing with this and fair play... he was very diplomatic and respectful towards the circuit owners given the situation at hand!

 

[Touring_Rob]

Filters would have been dead chilled dealing with this too, like when he told those kids to shut the f**k up at 3AM 😂

You should have seen him when the lady at sign on told him there was only 1 driver booked on for the cup racer

I didn't know if they were gonna f**k each other or fight each other

 

[Danith]

Didn't take many photos as was on track or wandering around chewing people's ears off all day. Still not done a walk around the track yet after multiple times there.

Think everyone overtook the Twingo beast on the day, see if you're on the PM laps doing so:

 

[Touring_Rob]

Ahhhh! I was looking for your MX5! Were you driving the Twingo then? Thought it looked very composed on track... just needed another 50bhp.

@The Crumb Master 2:50
@Rapido MX5 6:00 (not sure who's that is!)
@Brigsy 6:56 - Stubby #2
@Brigsy again and sounding sick at 8:40
@Boring_Gob 9:30
Toby in the lovely 172 12:36
@Snoring_Yob again at 13:15

 

[Danith]

Ahhhh! I was looking for your MX5! Were you driving the Twingo then?

Yeah thought I should bring the Twingo ripper seeing as it was a Renault day, plus it's had a load of beans spent on it to get it sorted so thought why not give it a blast at Anglesey. Was there in the mazda only a couple of months ago anyway.

After 2 trackdays in it (KH and Anglesey) I've realised that these twingos should only be used on flat, short twisty circuits gradients and straights aren't it's forte

Gutted for him.

I'm sure the circuit will have it taken care of swiftly and I hope the insurance pay out fairly for it.

 

[JamesBryan]

Did you get sorted with a chair?

Sorry I never came over and spoke to you, despite being camped directly opposite

I only really spoke to @Sir_Dave and @Clio_fool briefly.

Was planning on going to the bar, but we just held down under the gazebo when that downpour hit.

I was trying to find you haha, @J-J came good with a chair, thank you though. Were you camped next to the bellends with the screaming kid? Was looking out for a few people I wanted to say hello to but didn't. Should have come over mate!!!

We were camped next to one with a kid yeah, possibly the one you mean?

Was me, @JB21 and a few of his mates.

We'll definitely catch up next year.

Mate there was some f**king kid running round the tents at 2-3am screaming on the Friday, did my f**king nut in, then revving engines etc. I just laid there muttering things but @Filters got up for an extremely diplomatic ( 😂 😂 😂) chat.

I think I heard it, although I did have some earbuds in.

Did they turn up in the night and set up? Could have been the one near us that just appeared when I got up at 7am on Saturday.

Yea them.

Did a U turn on sighting laps too then gave his wristband to his mate who didn't have his licence with him. Dont think they were very popular in general tbh.
