Not my favourite track, but the best trackday I've ever done (UK wise!)

Great fun.

Morning of Civic'ing, plus a drift every corner in my mates 325i Sport (Ant's old one!) and black flag.

Full on Civic action all day, one of the best bit of action was the 20 odd lap race against my mates CRX VT, I had a passenger so he had the legs on the straight slightly, but I was quicker through the bends (coilovers etc!) was like a mini touring car race!

Then borrowing Horners Silvia and as Karan said, drifting in 4th at about 100mph big angles with smoke pouring off (Sorry Horner!!) was absolutely amazing. Fantastic fun. As I straightened it out and looking in the rear view mirror, not being able to see Karans car through the smoke!!!! Quality.

Awesome pics Andy, shame the real smokey one isn't too clear! Bugger. Difficult to take pics sideways at 100mph I guess though! haha!

Thanks to Simon for letting me abuse the car, and same to Ren for letting me abuse his 325!

Wicked!

Yeah i know mate, most of the pics came out the same, some are clear others could be alot better.

But like you said, its a bit hard to keep the camera on the car while Mr Punni's doin his stuff :cool:

Thanks to dave and Karan for lots of Passenger laps!!!!!

Wicked day, i will have more pics up tomorrow.
