Quarry, was told its thw most expensive corner in the country. Great fun.

Edd

I wont be taking the Sport round there after seeing the driving standards today lol

Hobbit
27-04-13, 09:57 PM
Much better on a proper day. You have all day so if you get stuck behind someone for a few corners its not the end of the world. Plus less cars on track.

Action days are carnage. Good fun to watch though.

Jack
27-04-13, 10:01 PM
Thats quite scary, those pics of the Megane are almost exactly the same as the ones I took as it was crashing. Must have been stood right next to me lol

Edd, driving standards at combe action days are always pretty shonky tbh. I wouldn't take the Nova out, certainly never the GT4. Which is a shame as I'd quite like to do a trackday.

I've got a bunch of pics, will post them up tomorrow.

Plug
27-04-13, 10:03 PM
ARHHHHHHHHH just got home !!!!!

Beemer decided to die on me on the M5 at cullompton :(

That red bmw must be down my way aswell as i seen it on the trailer whilst waiting for recovery

27-04-13, 10:11 PM

fingers crossed its just a coil pack, was cruising along at 60 and the engine just cut out randomly and wont start now.

bottom end turns over freely thou.


Like how people photo petes and alex's novas haha wheres mine should have bought that £10 pic now lol

Edd
27-04-13, 10:12 PM
What you need to do is drive the Nova there and stop fcuking about with trailers lol

Plug
27-04-13, 10:13 PM
the nova wouldnt have made it back it only made one session out without problems other than warped discs and no pads lol

well would like to say had a cracking day and good to catch up with some old faces. Roll on the next one

Edd
27-04-13, 10:18 PM
Sort your spanner skills out then lol

Yeah was a good day, didn't really know what to expect tbh but was a top day, enjoyed the crashes lol

Um, thats not a megane 225, thats a Megane RS250, fooking quick cars, sexiest recaro's ive ever laid eyes on, and they handle fantastically well, properly sorted chassis on them, so he mustve been lead footing it like a true hero to bin it :eek:

27-04-13, 10:48 PM
Again. Quarry takes no prisoners. Your hitting it at over 110, got a slight left kink on the brow of a hill then a hard right when the car is completely unstable.

As said, great fun. :d

Everyone spectates from Quarry! lol

Pleased my mates Damson (purple) S14a doesn't feature in this hall of fame!

Jack
28-04-13, 12:07 AM
There was a few hairy moments at quarry, an E30 and S14A did the exact same thing as the Megane whilst I was stood there watching but were lucky enough to miss the tyres by inches. Not to mention the skidoo which you can just see in the pic below where someone faceplanted right into the wall earlier.

Too many wanna be hereos out there yesterday IMHO.

IIRC - 306, Megane, Clio, and BMW all had accidents there. Plus one or two near misses.

The 306 was weird it was cocking a wheel through Quarry and the driver did not seem to be pushing it hard at all.

Great day though

Plug
28-04-13, 11:02 AM
shame benn was a good day and the weather held out although was cold in the shade.

there changing the name to Crash day lol

Dam jack was hoping nobody saw that but at least it was only a boost hose can live with that.

Good day. Have a few pics, not many will upload shortly. Was a PITA first thing as some confusion over access to the stand area. Not that it mattered as we hardly over run with cars! Which was odd seeing a 12 free passes were sent out.....
