Scottish Elises

Lovely sunny day, taken a few minutes ago, looks almost empty.

tut

fancy nicking a helicopter that can load N3 + the Atom and we'll go for the afternoon

well, it has not been quiet this week-end,
3 Elises as far as I have heard : Dave with alternator probs, an Irishman loose brake caliper ( sorted) and another Elise with wheelbaring.

not really quiet, bank holiday today , look at this morning :

Tut, I've been spending too much time looking at this site (so thanks!!!)

Few too many bikes for me...

I was there on Saturday and it was the busiest I've ever seen it.

Good fun though.

Well I'm really pi$$ed off with the Ring today - I was going to go next month, but now they've reduced the time that the track's open so I don't reckon it's worth going now.

Tim

the ring - not today.



stolen from top gear

that was 5th of may, end of the day.
what car is it ?

I was there last sunday (11th) and it was well busy... saw a gaggle of s2 Exiges and a silver S1 with a honda and a few S1 elises...

if you were there I was the green s1 exige going not very quickly

If anyone is going over and wants help with their lines I can recommend Oliver Grams (http://www.fahrer-training.de/) as a guide/instructor. Very nice chap and he does help. Got my times down by 25 secs or so... mind you as I was starting at 10.10 there was room for improvement.

A Veritas RS3

The RS3 was a 2001 concept built around a six-litre V12 borrowed from BMW - a 670bhp unit in a car weighing just under a ton. Veritas was a small German race car manufacturer formed in the 1940s that went bust in 1952, but the name was revived for the boat-like, definitely-a-bit-phallic RS3.

Actaully it was Sunday I was there too. Saturday was the VLN race, I lost track of days.

You must have seen a rabble of evo's too. Mine was the silver one with all the rediculous stickers on it that got too much attention from the noise police who wouldn't let me on. 100.8dB at 2800rpm which I though was pretty good.

I just sneaked on quietly half an hour later and was fine for the rest of the day.

...was this you???
