Here are a few pictures from the Southwest Rolling Road day at Fritz Bitz... Good day had by all! Thanks again RandomDave!
Tony's (Eko) M50, Chris N's IS (Non Zoner), Mine.
Ben's (Benjy's) IS on the right and sorry but I forgot your name, Dan?
Tony's warming up the Rollers ready for my run! (Eko's was the Fastest of the day)
Mine giving it the 'Biggen! Dave (Random) was unsure the Rollers could take such power so sent some of the guys out to pick up more Rachet straps...
Sorry I didnt snap everyone elses

But along with taking the carpet out of Daves IS for mine I didnt really get a chance...

Well I only took a couple of pics, and one wasn't even an e30!
The day was certainly interesting... I got slightly confused on my way to meet Dave in the morning, and ended up taking a quick jaunt up the M5 to J26, then back down to J27 again
If that wasn't bad enough, I decided to modify the front of my car, using the back of Tims car...

(Again, sorry dude)
There were several photos taken of the damage, so I'm sure someone will post a pic up later...
Anyway, here is the only decent photo I took of the whole day, shortly before the aforementioned modification!
Oh, and heres a quick (crap) vid of my car on the rollers:

Looks a very good turnout and a load of fun.
Bimmaman, you crashed into the back of another zoner?

Yeah, don't I feel like a right twat!
It was just after all the shenanigans in the car park...
Not a lot to tell really - Tim slowed down for the speed bump, I didn't!

Don't think I was going that quick, but still managed to lock up, and skid into the back of him. Luckily, Tims car came out looking a lot better than mine...
Must say a big thanks to Dave for having a go at bashing the wing back out... The black tape conceals the damage quite effectively!

Dave is becoming a Hero for that, i remembering him "repairing" ollys white touring after its off at the haynes day.
Looks like a good day out, was tempted to pop down, but a piece of coursework stopped that happening, plus i would have been gutted that i couldn't have put my 160k smoker on the machine.

I can't put my old smoker on the machine because its 4wd
Last thing i knew about ollys car was that it was advertised and selling on ebay about 3 days after he "nudged" it. Pretty funny really, i hoped he got it sorted!
I noticed you are doing it, i'm 95% certain i'm going to do it, just going to speak to the ball and chain and convince her that its a good idea
