Some brilliant photos there!!



A very, very enjoyable weekend!

Thanks Neil and Mike for arranging the great weather and all the other fun stuff too

And of course thanks to David too (that pearl coloured D2 really is a beauty when the sunlight hits it) and to everyone else who helped to organise the weekend.


Back to work for me unfortunately now, so I'll post some photos and videos when I have time to go through them.

The cheapo Chinese GoPro clone worked better than I expected (this was the first time I had used it). The video quality is superb but I think maybe the mic needs some sort of windsheild ...

Similar to most dashcams, the camera saves the recordings as a series of short clips, so I'll string all of these together when I have more time, but here's a couple of the clips for now:

I think this is probably one of the better clips, showing a few of the cars as I overtook (from about 1 minute in):

A nice V8 roar on this one, after about 2 mins in (before the wind noise drowns it out) as I stomped on the loud-pedal to catch back up with David:

Our temporary parking spot (were we waiting for someone?):

EDIT by IT : Mirrored also to the forum site for speed and longevity, hope you don't mind Mark?
