I've just checked the site and there appears to be an entry for the 2nd April but no picures as yet [img]images/graemlins/033102bad_1_prv.gif[/img], just little red crosses where the pictures should be ! [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Hi MikeS

Sorry to have missed your RS2 in action at Castle Combe. [img]images/graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/jump_clap.gif[/img] Apart from mine I've only seen 2 other RS2s in the flesh - fleeting glimpses as we’ve passed on the road.

Had planned to bring mine down to watch the action at Castle Combe - but it didn't happen. Hopefully next time I'll get to come and watch! Not ready for this track stuff yet! It would be great to see some RS2s showing what they're made of on the track - even if they can't live with the pace of some of their modded cousins! [img]images/graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img]

Right, for the bandwidth gifted or patient people only, my video footage is now available here. Please download it rather than attempting to stream it. It's 111Mb [img]images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

It's completely unedited (cos I couldn't be arsed) so apologies for the rough edges.

You'll need the Divx 5 codec, available from www.divx.com. Any problems let me know!

Thanks Rob for shooting this video - it's very good - lots of footage from different parts of the circuit too. [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img]
