Well i got to combe about 11am started making a slow journey arround looking for fellow TM boys, spotted nic, tom, rob and a few others carried on walking to pick up the courage to start talking with people lol.

saw quite a few lairy minis around the place had a very good time chilling out and watching the racing.

then got some track time booked in and headed off to the TM gathering to ask if i could park my car there ready to go on track, parked my car up and carried on watching the racing and the really close battle with the Pro-Motive r1 engined mini and the DON.

went out at 4:30 on track in my good old 1.1 106 and had an awsome time ragging it around combe.

all in all a very good day i though.

I Saw nic in his car at the noise test as I was walking past I think saying to the guy what rev counter mate... Ill just give it a little rev. PASS :)

I was out after the crash, nic's car was quick. well what I saw of it as it shot past me.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

I my self was really really suprised to stay out infront of so many people lol i was loving it. the guy in the 200sx i saw slowly creeping up on me just waiting for him to blast past me, but it didnt happen i let him past and was on his ass for a little while :) never underestimate the 1.1!

forgot to ask has anyone else got anymore pics of me in the 106 or a very good photo printer to make me a copie of the pic of me sideways going around quarry to put on my wall :)?
