Post by jeffw » Wed Apr 02, 2003 7:52 pm

Big thanks to John for organising a great day at CC today [img]images/graemlins/1syellow1.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/nodder.gif[/img]

Nice to put faces to names (or even real names to Forum Names [img]images/graemlins/gotmesome.gif[/img])

Nice one

Jeff

(Mr HiSpec for the day [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] and no I'm really not on commission)

I'll second that - lots of hard work paying off JR, thanks again.

Jeff - interesting discussion about HiSpec - especially given the length of my brake pedal travel after the second run. [img]images/graemlins/jump.gif[/img]

Looking forward to seeing all the pics and vids. [img]images/graemlins/beerchug.gif[/img]

yes thanks again JR for organising another safe enjoyable track day - good to meet up with the folks on here again also.

I missed the grass cutting exercise, although had some near misses myself finding the limits of my car, as well as witnessing a few scary moments delicately carried out by others. [img]images/graemlins/icon_lol.gif[/img]
M3 CSL - Silver Grey, a few options.

What a great day out! [img]images/graemlins/biggrin3.gif[/img]

Thanks to JER for arranging it, Hopsta for giving me a lift, and Thorney and Bushy for the awesome drives around the track. [img]images/graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img]

I haven't got around to loading up the video yet, but my photos are now online here.
