Here's some footage of Kames yesterday, it was a very wet & windy practice day... a by the way I drove (see the last clip) I need the practice!!! :o:

It was my last run on probably the last session of the year, I was having fun, so went for it... just got to remember not to 'drive out' of wet grass... when the wheels are going every which way you can't be sure which direction you'll shoot off in when you do get traction... unfortunately for me (or more so for my poor car) on this occasion it was directly across the tarmac onto the grass on the other side and into the tyre wall... :cry:

Oh well, that's my winter project decided! :roll:
'89 325i - was an SE but not anymore, was bronze-beige metallic (yeuch!) but now techno-violet (thankfully)
'89 Toyota Corolla GTi-16 - track, hillclimb & sprint car (yeeha!)
'08 Buell XB12Ss - American engineering at it's 'best'... good fun though

That's part of the fun of it Fuzzy mate, you have to be precise and quick! Pity I didn't remember that on the last run...

Good value for money though, a day session with as much practice as you can fit in costs £25...

...oh, and a few hundred to repair the car when you bin it!!!!! Damn fool Gary, that could've been a set of cams!!!!
