Ty Croes parade lap, thanks and photos!

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Big, big, thanks to all those that supported us; we had twenty run ears in the end and a fantastic day, I really hope everyone that took part enjoyed themselves!

 

There were a few nervous looking faces in the paddock as we formed up, but a lot of excited grin one faces as we pulled back I to the paddock for our piccies to be taken.

 

Thank you.

 

Dave

Perhaps it was so it didn't roll around on the trailer!

Have to say, made an awesome sight seeing a line of twenty Westfield's lapping Ty Croes, specially seeing some of the hard core SS machines in there!

[SteveD]

yes thats what i thought , i reckon he let them down so his westy  was more comfortable on the trailer while he was towing it

Steve I wondered what you were doing with Bobs car, I could see you from the back of the queue!! It was lucky he brought it on the trailer.

Dave thanks for organising this I had a great time. I checked the GoPro and I have recorded something!! Now the fun begins. Don't forget to post the email address we spoke of.

 Thanks

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

I have emailed Sarah, (the entries secretary for Lancashire and Cheshire Car Club, the organisers), to thank her personally, and on our behalf, for all the sterling work they did both making this fairly unique event happen. (You all met Sarah at signing on!)

 

It's worth remembering that the weekends sprinting is largely staffed by volunteers, both marshals and the organising officials. These same people then volunteered again, missing their Sunday lunch break, so that we could have our laps.

 

A few of you asked where you could email your thanks, personally. The details are: Sarah Nield - Entries Secretary, info@ty-croes.com

 

And as before, a big thank you to

YOU

too, for coming along and helping make it a fantastic day. We had twenty Westfields on track in the end, of all descriptions, litterally from fantastic sounding crossflow to slightly scary sounding superscharged Honda!

 

The photographer will be sending me a CD of the pictures, so I'll post them up once I get them.

 

If anyone wants to send video or photos across, please send* them to ao@sprint-xe.com and I'll try and collate them into one place for everyone.

 

*If they're too big to email, drop me a pm and I'll send you a link to upload them to.

I certainly learned some new lines around the international track, but I'm not sure they would be much use to me in a sprint!

Mrs H asked me when she got back to the paddock what I had meant when I kept telling her to unwind some lock!!

Anyway, she thoroughly enjoyed it, and would be happy to do something like that again. So many thanks to all involved in organizing it.

.and also paul and jane for taking my two around the circuit. they both loved it.
