Well i'm cool now thank's to the thunder storm's round good old scarby :D but it was roasting at the pod and decided to call it a day as i couldn't stand it anymore, gutted is a understatement as i've heard Toyota's came first and second :crybaby:

CRD Supra came first with a 9.9 something run and Fennies Corolla came second :D :D :D Once i find all the times i'll pop them up asap :thumbsup:

A bit gutted about the jetcar but no doubt it will be up and running soon, 6.07@267mph was pretty amazing to watch from the VIP area and i took a vid of it as well which i'll pop up soon ;)

Here's a few pics from sunday's track action :thumbsup:

As for the clubstand side of things, a top stand position from the pod :D , excellent weather B) and a top group of people ;) , made for a damn good weekend :yes:

Lot's of fun on the saturday even if the temp was 34c so didn't make for good run times but the same went for everyone including the modified Integra Type R that i left in my rear view mirror :D After the run, erm what car is that mate and when i said it's an Avensis the blood seemed to drain from their face :lol::lol::lol: My best time was 14.74@94.11 btw.

Nice to meet a few new faces especially Ross who made the trip down from Scotland and was the fastest Yaris on the day :thumbsup:

See you all again in 5 week's peeps :D

Fabulous day that was! Thanks for making me welcome at my first TOC event, see you at JAE. I left about 2.45 as was sooo hot and my cold water supply in the boot could have made a hot drink! Took the roof out, had both windows wide open and nearly 3 hours later at home was still roasting :wacko: Spent too much time watching the 1/4 miles and my necks a bit red, ouch. Top day.

It was funny on the way down on the M1.... I had just got back on the motor way after a short stop at one of the services when I saw a blur of orange go past me :D I pounded the horn but with noise of the engine he didnt hear me so I soon caught up with him, :ph34r: got beside him :thumbsup: said good morning and fell in behind him and had our own mini convoy to the meeting point. Great stuff :group-cuddles:
