morning was harsh and very little grip , but this was great to get a feel for the car , lines were drying out during the morning and by the afternoon it was dry and up to full chat,stuartstaples wrote:Ahhhhhhhh shit! The car was going so well, Trev was delighted too.
I must admit, this incident aside, today was a day where I would have thought long and hard before driving anything really quickly.
I arrived just after 9 am with the rain and wind doing things only possible at somewhere like Snetterton. The conditions were very hostile. The car park was a third empty at best with an unusual mix of cars. So much for the 'Jap only' theme. There was a bloody Audi RS4 and Porsche 997 going around!
Had I known the 'Jap only' wasn't quite as strict as I was previously told, I may well have been able to sell far more slots. Instead of that the day went ahead half sold!
Dave (JP Tuner) seemed to be having fun with Bryan also grinning from ear to ear.
Ben (BenH) christened his Time Attack Evo to great effect. Considering the conditions, the car looked quick and stable also.
Trev, like I say, was lapping well and the car seemed plenty quick enough to despatch most things.
Phil Royle was there although he was yet to run. I also met Dave Woodall which was a pleasure.
No photos to speak of as my hands rarely left their warm pockets. You guys weren't missing much. Snetterton was cold and damp. Use your imagination
i think my car was maybe running a little bit lean and found out the hard way , phill royle did say after following me round for a lap or two is it running lean because it was the fastest standard impreza in the country :lol:
hope you enjoyed your pax lap bryan it will be the last time i drive the car for a while :lol:
car of the day though was the stripped to the max suzuki swift 1.3 , it was uber quick and thanks to the guy driving it to give me a few pointers when he came out for a few laps with me
A GREAT TIME.
as said allready a very wet and windy start to the day YUK but by 10am it started to dry and arfter lunch dry,dry,dry 
some nice cars 911 turbo,audi rs4 :? (jap's only!!). the evo was great a bit quicker than the skyline over all but not the grunt,but through the corners WOW. the wife took some pics so ill put them up in the pics bit. a BIG thanks to the tall one (stu) for the post on here or i would have been in the recovery truck all day :lol: and a thanks to FAST EDDY for the last min octane booster well a box of it, once again TOP PRICE or is that bottom price

Sorry for your car Trevor!! Hope you get it all sorted sooner than later! As we were saying earlier, no pain no gain.
All sorrow aside, That was a great day!! Thanks for the rides Dave and Trev!
I wish I could've been out there along side you guys....in a car. I couldn't have asked for better rides from anyone. I experienced what 600whp felt like....kind of like hitting the afterburner on an F-15! And then Tk, well.....WOW! I had to change my diaper when I got home and away from the guys :lol: I would believe that is the fastest I've ever been around a 90 degree turn mate!!
Stu, great talking to you and thanks for organizing the event! Besides the am time frame, we couldn't have asked for a better day during the winter.
Looking forward to a BP trackday now!!
