How many pics has everyone got? I for one, want to get hold of all of em in full res, but that much uploading would take forever. So if anyone who's interested could PM me for my address, then whack a CD with all their pics / videos in the post to me... I'll then make a bunch of DVDs with the whole lot on & post em out to whoever wants. :cool:

I'll upload some pics asap though - got some cracking action shots before my batteries ran out :cry:

Fantastic photos. The blue and orange gulf car brings back memories. Was it a Porsche or a Nissan?? I cannot remember for the life of me!


Cotty, remind me to keep you away from the fire in Newquay. Cannot have you burning half of Cornwall down!

It was a Porsche. It wasnt me that started the fire. I threw one cardboard box on it and someone has a pic of me doing it. One guy was throwing cups of petrol over it :eek:

I've somehow completely locked up my home pc (I'm at work now), can't view any files, upload pics or get on t'internet! Can't do a thing with it at the moment! :cry:

Fantastic weekend though, hopefully get some pics up if or when I get my pc sorted! :?

How was the engine cooling Driftboy after the bonnet mod?

Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2007 2:08 pm
by DRIFTBOY
It still ran quite hot - guage between half and three quarters all the way back, sometimes going up to three quarters in trafic.

Having the heater on full while me and my passenger Rob roasted helped a lot.
I also left the electric cooling fan on all the way on the autoroutes.
I didn't think it would make any difference at 100+ mph but it did help.

I stopped worrying about it in and rolled with the Porsches and TVRs etc. all the way back at high speeds.

It was a drive I'll always remember - and despite some close shaves no speeding fines! :D

camp for the weekend,
Image

Image

ziggy's car
Image

miniblob's ( didnt catch your name mate)
Image

dan's
Image

Kedge's
Image

fly bys, what a laugh the drive back, (dan your sounds good mate.)
jsut as dan came flying past us the bricked it that he didnt know where he was going
Image

kedge relaxing as tiv drives ( think thats his name)
Image

blocking the whole of the motorway. but i had to get the picture
Image

GT40 was an awesome car, he even slowed so i could get a picture.
Image

now the fake wanna be GT40, still a nice car though ans sounded nice
Image

why you would never by a front wheel drive car and yes he is stuck on the sump!!
Image

sunday night burning action
Image

anything in sight and not wanted got burnt
Image

look how close ziggys tent was to being burnt.
Image

and the person resonsible, the owner of this car.
Image

the proof - paul is a maniac, do not let him near fire at Newquay he will burn your tent, and dont let him near petrol as he will use it to make the fire bigger
Image

all in all a very good weekend.
