Lakeside Laps v.8 - 18 August 2012 (breakfast)

[THE_EGG]

Do you mean me man? Sorry if I was holding you up, but I was stuck behind a group in front of me. I thought about doing a hero overtake manoeuvre down the main straight to get past them all but it didn't seem in the spirit of the day....

What? No way man haha. If anything I would be holding you up . It was a light blue classic beetle.

I noticed the XR5 got held up by the beetle as well, but managed to get past eventually.

Assuming from your pic you were in the M Coupe? I was in that group too and was definitely holding you up (black XR5) - sorry mate! I tried letting you past a couple times but it was crowded & would have been easy to trip each other. I think you were stuck behind me, I was stuck behind another car, and he was stuck behind the car in front of him so there was a bit of a train going there for a bit. Good fun though...your BM looks/sounds great btw.

Yep that's me! No you weren't holding me up at all. I was clueless about the racing lines so I spent 5 laps or so copying yours! cheers re the car. I only got it recently and I'm really happy now it's finally out of the workshop. Need more of these happy laps days tho

I won't get a chance to upload my footage but it wasn't terribly exciting as i was taking it easier out there.

That's a shame. You were on my tail for a couple of laps at the start and I was hoping to see how much body roll I was getting. Felt like I was in a boat!

Ahh I got the cars confused. You were up with my wife in the JCW. I won't mention who knocked over the cone because she wouldn't like it! hahahahah

Great day!!

Thanks very much team v for not only holding the spot for me but organizing a great event.


Sorry if I held any one up the car felt terrible on the worn shocks could only do like 50 through the cones . Great day none the less

[QUOTE=tremolo;846923]Great morning! I'm uploading my GoPro footage now, it's 3.5GB so might take a while, but will post later on when it's done. I was only ambling along at about 6/10ths just enjoying myself but it was great fun.

Hey dude... Ummm why don't you re-encode that video to something more reasonable?

Ah, what an awesome day!! First time taking my car out for happy laps. I definitely was happy

30 minutes at average speeds of 100 km\hr gives you a solid 50km's or so of driving, which I thought was really a good amount. I was quite satisfied and enjoyed just cruising on the way home!

Here are some photos; I have a cheapie $100 camera so please don't expect much.

Also Clay; Thanks HEAPS for organising, and thank you Ben for holding me a spot!

My Clio decided to break for the first time after Happy Laps. Missed out on sprints (was hoping to break into the 1:03's ). My friend Trevor was driving and the car just stalled when idling in the pitlane. Could be a fuel pump, TDC sensor, coil pack.

Who was in the Integra - thing sounded mean from the outside.

Stand outs for me were the TTS and the Abarth.
I really only saw about 10 cars maximum as everyone was about the same pace.

Thanks clay!
Yup. She is a very brave little cute box willing to take on anything. From the C-Class AMG on QR to Polo Gti, I actually very impress for what she can do when she is still "pretty" stock.
Today with all the clear laps that I could get. I got my best time at 1min11sec
