Andrew Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Weathermen were so wrong with the day's predictions! Other than the first session the track was dry all day. Unfortunately I only got one session on the early damp track before the head gasket gave up. b*******! Despite the early retirement I still enjoyed the day. Thanks to Jeff for letting me bumble my way round in his R400... I failed miserably in the gear selection department. Six gears is way to many! Fantastic car though, as was demonstrated by a good session in the passenger seat. Big thankyou Mr C. Also got a ride in Steve H's supercharged slug. That too is one beast of a machine. The sequential gearchanges were dislodging my glasses, so once a lap I was having to pick a slow part of the track (difficult!) lift my visor and pop me specs back on! Thanks Steve, For a pre bank holiday Friday, had a suprisingly good run home too. I've uploaded my pics, (Thanks to Ross for getting some early shots of my car before it expired.) and hopefully should get some vids up soon. I lent the camera to Matt, and there's some good footage from the Busa to put up too. Have been watching some Matt, and the amount of clear track you were getting, made me want to http://s133.photobucket.com/albums/q63/dixonandrew/Anglesey%20trackday%2024th%20Aug%202012/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffC Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 pleasure cap, shame about the 3 cars having issues I think It would have been good all cars battling round that circuit, I had a cracking day didnt like the first layout seemed a waste of petrol those 2 straights but the afternoon one was awesome, my car seem to be going particularly quick into the corkscrew , I certainly now dont think there was an issue with my slicks car was on rails planted all day,could carry good speed out the right hander resulting in touching 7200rpm in 6th just over 125mph into the braking zone at Rocket!? had some cracking battles with Mr H as usual and a good tussle with Matt in his Busa, got a few vids of said battles to upload which i will do shortly. bonus I even managed to come home with more money than I went with :laugh: :t-up: :t-up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Was a cracking day and another big thank you to Mr Cooper for allowing me to drive the circuit it was very much appreciated It is certainly a track that I would want to do when my car is fixed and has given me the urge I needed to plough on with the car. It was a shame so many of the cars failed to reach the end but I believe everyone still had an enjoyable weekend. Same again next year?
