Lakeside Happy Laps 24 Feb 2013 Part 1 of 2 - YouTube

[guile]

thanks to clay for organising the day, had a quick chat with him, really nice bloke and hope to catch up again at another event.

shame about the weather but pleased to hear only one minor mishap and happy for everyone that we didn't add to the recent record of incidents at lakeside.

keen to get out on another happy laps, preferably dry this time and reckon i might bother to swap my wheels.

thanks to the usual suspects and anyone else i spoke to on the day!

apologies for holding anyone up but really wasn't that excited about having an off in the wet on sheet tyres. deffo made sure i pulled right over on the straight and braked to let people pass though

[guile]

Also almost 200 photos taken by D300S DLSR and quite surprisingly most of them are of good quality.
Uploading them on our facebook group
Email me if you want yours in super HD or you want to delete you from the photos all together

nice work, would like to look at these but don't have facebook. i could check it out on my gf's account if you don't mind telling a fb retard how to join / logon to the group etc, cheers

^ I like those numbers. What's the weight of your car? FWD ya?

Nice videos, Clay. You're pretty quick. And smooth, fluid driving. I like it.

Didn't realise you were that close behind me for so long near the end

Being limited to 120-ish along the straight will level the playing field pretty well, there were a number of cars i never saw (Audi a5, Sean's polo, Gav's polo etc).

Having said that, this is the 10th time i have done these at lakeside so i am starting to learn all the best ways to push the car through quickly.

In the dry your R would absolutely hammer me.

It does stand out, half the photos i was like "Oh, blue car with black headlights, that has to be mine" then it turns out it's a Golf R haha.

Love these shots. We'll definitely be getting some. They have the angles and lighting down pat. Were they the ones with multiple shooters?
