BMW Car Track Day Photos

englebert · 25-11-2008, 08:10 PM

Great day today, nice to get the car back on circuit after my last shunt! When i arrived there were a few too many chavs around for my liking, but everyone i spoke to was actually really nice. Only problem for me was the disappointing Ferodo pads again.

I got a few snaps in between swapping over with my dad, here they are...

Hope to see you all again on track soon!

Cheers,

Rob

Nice one mate - looks like you had fun in the 'dry'!

Who was the other CSL in the pics?

englebert · 25-11-2008, 08:39 PM

I'm not sure if he is a member but it was a guy from Leeds, it was a standard car but with Brembos all round. I think his RTABs were shot as he was struggling a bit round Brands.

I only took photos for a few mins, but there was the WTCC style wrapped CSL, Tom Houlbrooks, one which was S7* CSL and maybe another one. Also a Turbo'd and Nitrous powered M3 i missed out!

Looks fun, shame that old E30 is kicking your ass

Looks like you had a good day Rob.

Good pictures. You got lucky with the weather!

Car is looking sweet!!!

I really like the last 3 pictures, seeing 2 CSL's on the track in action!!!

Y, looked like that...I know Jags had a chat with him about some of his handling issues and I think he may be dropping the car in for some work in the morning.

Your car went well Rob... certainly well peddled on some of the laps I witnessed.

Nice pics, love seeing pics of classic BMW's....especially the E30 M3's. Looks like you had fun.

Yeah, always liked the E30s. Curiously i think the fastest non-race one was in fact the convertible one. It also sounded almost CSL-esque!

My favourite was the 2002 though.

Thanks Tom, well done to you Piers and Stephan for taking out people on free rides. I would have charged a fiver a pop myself

Had a text earlier to ask if I was ok as someone had an 'off' on this day.

Unfortunately I didnt make it but apparently there was an incident with a CSL.

Hope whoever did is ok.
