Morning Chaps !

Wide awake now.

So first off i would like to say a big thanks to everyone who came down to the track on Saturday for the Trackday.
It was from my point of view just great a real mix of cars from Porsche Gt3rs to Novas with turbos bolted to them................ :o
a fair amount of Subaru's were there which is always nice to see as i do love them :)

A big thanks to everyone who just cam,e down to watch as well as it all added to the atmosphere of the day which was great.
Every one coped well with the "tricky " conditions in the morning but as said by others the track dried out by lunch time to give a good afternoon session.

Again i would just like to say a big thanks to everyone here at " Big Power " for all the support it has shown to myself and Phil over the last year with our trackdays and hopefully we can have some more fun in the new year.

As regards photos more will be going on the site during the day have a laugh at yourself and enjoy, as that is what it is all about :grin:

Have a good one

Dave

Thanks about the pic's
the first lot ( up now ) were shot by me using a Nikon D2X with a f2.8 200mm Nikon Lense
Generally at about 1/125 th or 1/60th of a second on F2.8 with all settings to manual

if you understand cameras you will know what that is :grin:

Have fun
Dave
