OH !

What a day! Big thanks to Tony + S2smarts for having us along and Graham Crazy G for helping to organise.
It was a shame the race forfour had some teething issues with boost in qualifying which meant Rob only got a few laps in.
And in the race, an issue with the gear linkage caused Rob to stop after a few corners on the first lap
Luckily he got it working again on the side of the track and was allowed to rejoin the race
Some pics i got of the forfour in action:
Some of the S2smarts paddock area:
Mike fitting nice new BC Coilovers
The epic "Tin Tops" class event that me and Paul (cowboy) took great pleasure in watching. Roaring VTECS!

And some random cars around the paddock:
A small (and very bad quality) video of the rolling start forthe Modern Classics class that the forfour is in:
