A couple of my pics. Low quality.

Is that his 0-60 time?????

How did this one get there??????

**kenholland** · 9-7-03, 14:28

Thanks all for an excellent meet. Really nice to put some more faces to names and see old friends (and older faces...).

I've looked at my snaps, but apart from the ones of our group, not much was any good (apart from the Fast Car mag girl

). I'll put a couple up later, when this damn headache's gone.

Cheers all,
Ken
PS. Roland, 1 3/4 hours to get back - can you beat that?

At one point I thought i was`nt going to make it home, Doing about 70mph at a safe distance behind a Audi when he slams his brakes on. I had to dop the anchors big time, I end up with 2 wheels on the grass verge and about 3 inches from his rear bumper. It was then the Audi decides to put his right indidcator on. Not sure i can repeat what i called him.

Hi All,

Really sorry that I couldn't be there today.. had lots of decorating to do instead

Anyway, I guess I will finally meet some of you on 26th October. Just as well as there is lots to do to the 6 before then..

Glad you all had a good time.. it looks like it was a great day

**Richy Rich** · 9-7-03, 16:36

nice one all, good to see all those good looking 6's, thanks for the number plate holder, much appreciated!

certainly havn't heard the last of the sprint tests! don't forget my first run of 7.42, only 5 hundredths behind Sam... did I mention the average!!!!!

will post up some pics, got about 30, so maybe I'll send them on for someone to pick out the good / relevant ones!

Well what can I say guys.

A BIG thank you to all. You got me all emotional

OK to business. Considering this was a car show I didnt get many pics of cars.

So beware Viewer discretion is advised IE dont show the girlfriend or wife.

PS there is a few AVI's of some sprints though.

TRAX 2003

Just noticed I did get a picture of a car.

They were washing one (sort of)

A) didn't realize it was a race back

B) you will notice I gave you an 2 hour head start !!

C) 2 hrs here

D) maybe next time

Another success due to Dave's efforts, Ken you will have a hard act to follow

Great day here also, nice to see some new faces and old friends You will all have to wait to see how the film comes out ,
going to take a little more time on this, got some ideas brewing

Flippin' tell me about it!

**Einstein** · 9-7-03, 19:24

Well guys, Thanks to all for another good meet. no doubt Dave will take the icing off the cake and frame it..

I set off at 4pm, expected to be back home at 6pm, but spent an extra hour and a half in a rather long queue on the M1 due to an accident I believe at jct 27?

Roland... what are you planning with my pic????

And thats MR Gangster to you @-

Gareth, Marks car was just too quick for your camera @-

And a 7.41s 0-60 which was 100% additive free proves most mags talk b*ll*cks with their 8.2s.. quickest I heard for a std 626 GT is 7.2s

I'm pooped, off to bed.. work in the early morrow..

**Andy W** · 9-8-03, 5:28

Never got chance to say goodbye to Dave, who proved elusive for most of the day, maybe I should have looked on the Fast Car stand judging by his pics!

I guess we might see you around - more likely if you get an RX8

We never did get that re-match game of pool did we - lol

**cruisemad** · 9-8-03, 5:45

Was a great day out and it was greate to see everyone again. Next time must remember to leave enough time to get there without speeding!!!

I will most definatly be going next year.

As for the drive home. Well it was a lot slower than on the way down. Took me just under 3 hours to get back and upset mr policeman on the bridge when i locked up before he had chance to catch me doing the 3 figure mark.

A big thanks to everyone for another good turnout. It was probably the best turnout we could have asked for.

Kyle

PS For those who didnt catch the sprint Tests.

Rich got beat by his girlfriend in an MR2!!!
Mark managed a 7.4 without Nos (Not bad for a family car) and a 6.19 with!!!
Andy Managed a 7.33
Chris Managed a 7.2 (Which can't have pleased Andy)
And I managed a 7.01!!! Couldnt break that dam 7 sec barrier. Hmmmm wait till next time.
