Yeah the hand signals helped a lot :lol:
Robin was just offering Nescafe - well a similar hand jesture! :lol:

I was anti-socially there... (ie. not in the pits at all :roll:). It was too cold! Tried to find some new Knockhill angles. My pics up here http://www.flickr.com/photos/jason-l/se ... 291410144/.

I have got a couple of your 306 - they are uploading along with a few others at the moment.

Found a cracking one of Simon getting a bit sideways out of the hairpin - you can even read the word "Lotus" on the centre cap of the alloy on the full size version :D

Goods pics......

Did the 911 turbo lose it leaving the hairpin?
Was it damaged...or just muddy?

Yep, then proceeded to rejoin the track after the red flag and lay globs of mud all over the track :roll:

I only caught the 'after' - saw it already off, so ran (well, did my best to run!) along railway to it.

According to Fergus, who witnessed it all, he lost it exiting the hairpin.... and just kept his boot in, across the grass/mud... only trying to stop when he saw the 'cliff' he was heading toward :roll:

Once dragged out it looked fine.

I was also there, in a fairly antisocial manor, but much happier thanks to a few different settings used, not to mention some good tips from Stewart!

Anyway, about 5 pages + worth of photos of the day, and as always been useless and not done anything with them, may post up some better post processed shots later!

It was farking freezing, really for the first time not enjoyable, but hopefully i have got some of nearly everyone, and apologies if i haven't posted up one of you, try PM'ing me, but i have spent an hour tonight evaluating the ones worth posting, and they are all in my Flickr set, so doubtful if i have a decent one of your car!

Tut, thanks for that, however you try standing relatively still with force 9 freezing gales blowing you about!

It is a different kettle of fush when you are pumped with adrenaline and moving about in the car...! :wink:

Less of the pussy comments young man! :D
