I got to within 20 mins. of home before the rain struck in earnest. The spray on the motorway kind of focused the mind and went past one car that had struck the barriers in the central reservation but made it home safe and sound. If I could be bothered to sort out some image hosting I could post some photo's of the day. ;D Anyway must be going, I have to nail the car on the trailer for tomorrows trip to the rollers

Thanks VFJ. They presented each award winner with a photoframe & a photo taken by the event photographer ...... I got the frame, but not the photo. Unfortunately, he didn't take a photo of me as I wasn't spectacular & he hadn't realised I was making good times! There's a moral there somewhere!!
The only photo's I'm aware of are those taken by Caterman. See post above. 'Fraid this hosting stuff is way beyond me Phil, but when youve nothing else to do, maybe......? Did you get one of that Mk1 in a wild slide?

Here we go again.... I've sent off my entry for the Bolton AutoSOLO on 11th Feb. Anyone going to join me? www.anwcc.org/regs-070211.pdfIt's close to "home" so if you can't/don't want to enter, why not come along & watch (& freeze probably!) Actually the layout of the site means you can usually watch the action from the comfort of your car if it's really cold. See you there? And by the way, having seen John North throwing his VW Passat around the tests at Wrexham and ending up only just outside the top 12 fastest overall, the "my car's too big" excuse just wont wash anymore! ;D

Great, thanks Phil..... I think there are too many of a certain green Fiesta, but apart from that, they're excellent! Cant make the slideshow work though. Only way I can get single photo's bolwn up is to click on a photo then click 'Full Size' (one shot at a time). Have you had any more success?

It works fine for me, all I did was: From the index page open the first image then select "slideshow" which is towards the bottom of the page, the slideshow starts and the image should change every 10sec's. I think I resized the images last night so they fit the page better. I don't think I can reduce the time between images.

err....they were taken with a Kodak digital camera..... Oops, sorry.... Shows how much notice i was taking in between runs! Thinking about it, it did have a zoom lens didn't it? Now, I wonder if you use the zoom just at the right moment, will it speed up my car? ;D
