Lydden Hill......6th oct 2012

Big thanks to lez and all the guys and girls involved to sort these days out, especially the marshalls and medical guys with out you none of us would be skidding!

Mega day had a great time with stiggy and meat head tom, plus a few others. I found the grouped sessions worked really well and was actually miles better than the last open pit lane format!

I was gutted when my diff blew up and I missed the last two sessions :( Other than that it was probably the best day I have had a lyd :)

Big smiles all round :) :)
 
Hahaha!!! Stiggys gaaaaay!!!! I kno we cuddled after a love tap,so much fun twinnin wiv stiggy meat head tom and jason,i havent had that much fun since 09 drift bruvvas loved rockin it up,tom u got all that kitty litter out of ur letterbox yet ;-)
Stiggy bangin gonna happen look at teamburst they do it daily and its what we need more of bruvvas,thanx boys for makin it awesome

To the organisers and staff marshals amazin job and a really well run day with plenty awesome seat time,like stiggy says kids follow the flags i saw loads of u ignoring flags the times i saw ppl on full lock goin into a corner when just round that corner was a stationary car that had just spun or got stuck.....

The marshals aint coppers watch out for the flags its for everybodys track safety....

If ppl dont listen they will only shut this track down for driftin and that would b bollox cos its an awesome day,welldone everybody that did adhere to the flags,kool crowd kool track kool vibe lets keep it that way,c u all at the nxt 1 when ive rebuilt the general yo....send iiiiiiit!!!!!
 
What a day, I hope Lydden now run drift days every month or every other month as its absoloutely amazing well worth the two hour drive. Sessioned worked brilliantly as it gave people time to change tyres and chill out. Day was perfect and the weather was on our side! Great day. Cheers Lez and all the team.
 
Oh yea, i lost my onboard camera on the last lap of my last run lol it was a stick on ebay jobbie attached to my rear quarter. Not too bothered, but if it does magically turn up, id like the memory card for the videos lol!
 
First thing, Thanks to Lydden, Lez and Royal for sorting the ticket transfer from Royal to me :)

Day went really well, it was a pleasure! Massive thanks to EVERYONE for making that possible!

Liked the fact it was wet in the morning, gave me an Opportunity to test my car out in the wet- really pleased with it, drives the same in the wet or dry, steering and turn in feel great, loads on confidence in the car now :) the smokey fun in the afternoon was :smokin:

Sessions worked well (against what I said in my previous post- I know..) and as others have said, gave a good Opportunity for some friendly banter in the pits: stiggy' and the other 'Bruvvaaaas' cracking laughs! I think some managed to bring the banter onto track which was exceptional fun! :D

Roll on the next day, fingers crossed ill have my few teething problems with the engine sorted by then :)

Seemed a few cars got a wee bit mashed! hope all made it home ok!

Thought I'd say thanks to all the people who made yesterday possible. Had a great day all day ,had some great runs with Stigy, ciappa,urban Tigger nick. And especially Clive in the v8 powered s14 had some real close action with him ( u should a hit me ) lol. Can't wait for the 3rd now !!!!! Sessions worked really well to was a truly fantastic event..

That was me in the matte black 540i the quiet one !!

Tom, respect to you, it was a pleasure man :) you sure could pilot that 540 exceptionally well!!

Nose and smoke of it was :smokin:
 
I had a really good day passengering! I never used to be a fan of the sessions but it really works well at Lydden! Can't wait to get the ole beemer out there :D
