Glad you and the others enjoyed it Bibs, but as you say, the fact there were only 28 marshals involved was a bit sad.

There are a variety of reasons for that, but for most of us it boils down to having the disposable income to fix things if they go wrong with the only car we possess.

Could have something to do with the fact that it was not at the weekend.
I'll be at Snetterton tomorrow, probably not going much faster around the corners than Judy Lyons, if I remember to turn the wheel in time

I'll be at Snetterton tomorrow as well in the (mostly) blue Corrado.

Only my 2nd track day so I won't be going too fast as well.

Stuart H · 23 Jan 2009, 13:51 (Ref:2377561)

Cold old lot at Cadwell today!
Sorry I couldnt give any rides this year as the cars in a million pieces but thanks for letting me have a few laps with a few of you guys!
See you when its a bit warmer!

brickkicker · 24 Jan 2009, 17:06 (Ref:2378293)

What a fantastic day at Cadwell today, thanks to all those who made it happen, shame the turn out was not huge but at least it meant we could stay out as long as we wanted

big well done to the track guys who had to grit it this morning to make it a bit less slippy.
Did you get any picture of me Colin, I was in the silver mini. Tallest one in the paddock in the smallest car

toyotamr2 · 24 Jan 2009, 17:16 (Ref:2378298)

Great day at Snetterton, Mazda running well, but I now know that a set of front brake pads last a couple of trackdays... thank god the car is in for a service on tuesday!

Thanks again to all at MSVR for the chance of seeing what the flag points look like at speed

Stuart H · 24 Jan 2009, 18:56 (Ref:2378328)

Twas an open & shut case!!!!!!!!! Great day, both of us had a whale of a time, thanks to JP & all the Cadwell staff for their hard work in making the track driveable for us.
Brian now wants the grass cutting contract!!!!!

GTiDog · 25 Jan 2009, 11:51 (Ref:2378661)

Has anyone got any more photos of the day?

I hear there's a few of my 106 in the mud at hall bends...

COLIN STUBBS · 25 Jan 2009, 11:52 (Ref:2378662)

Only got the one mate but believe it or not this was the first ever pic with me new camera! Ill try and do better next time.....

GTiDog · 25 Jan 2009, 11:57 (Ref:2378664)

That's a good photo considering you've never used the thing before!

COLIN STUBBS · 25 Jan 2009, 11:59 (Ref:2378665)

Sadly I had just moved away from that spot so I didn't get any of your trip into the mud but there's a few photos of just about everyone from yesterday ...

Big thanks to JP and all the staff at Cadwell. I had a great time even though the westy was cucking its teddy out of the pram big style. That just meant the family hack got a good trashing instead.
Thanks again.

The Sweeper · 25 Jan 2009, 13:53 (Ref:2378712)

Right then Mr P I have just looked at your facebook link.
I Have consulted with my solicitor and would like to point out in my defence that this was a sighting lap and not governed by MSA regulations.
