well done guys

 

great job Adam   and top piccies

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Some great piccies there, and we all love seeing them , BUT, some would also make fantastic pics for the club calendar; trouble is, the calender DOESN'T use photos that have been published on the Boardroom   Next time round, might be worth holding some of the real crackers back? Then you could try submitting them for next year.

Cheers guys - looks like there will be a #2 then!

 

I did hold a few back Dave, have fallen foul of that 'rule' before

Quick Adam, edit that post! 

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

No worries, wasn't sure if you knew! (Lots of us have been there).

 

Fancy a joint run out somewhere, Cheshire and Lancs for some more video/photography?

 

I've  added a Canon with HD video capability to the camera collection, just not had the opportunity to do some filming of passing cars yet, to go with the GoPro on car stuff.

[AdamR]

Sounds like a great idea! I had intended to do some videos as well but we didn't really get chance. With a couple of people doing the coverage that would help a lot

 

Location-wise, does anyone have any suggestions for somewhere in-between? The Rivington area kind of works again I think (Steve, our AO is up at Lytham-st-Annes and a few others are there too), and would also allow some Manchester chaps to pop across if they wished. The A675 between Bolton and Hoghton might be decent, it's not as fun to drive but certainly picturesque and a little more 'open' to allow for more cars. It appears there are some decent sized laybys too:

Thoughts?

I came that way to meet you guys and know it fairly well - it'd be perfect for photos, but we might want to dart somewhere else for 'spirited driving' - it's rife with coppers with guns & 50mph limits. Used to be a fun road once 

 

There's plenty around that area so it'd be a great central starting point, this site is useful:

Driven this, north of Waddington. Good bit over the moor that would be suitable?

A bit further though.

Looks like some good blatting roads, but in practice possibly getting on for a three and a half hour round trip for us to join you.

 

(Would love to get a pile of Go Pro + regular HD video + good still footage between us, together with some cars on some good roads)

Be good to get your way sometime too, I do intend to get to Whipping Stocks one Month.
