Travelled the 100 miles down south from Aberdeen to Knockhill today to go check out the famous Scottish Race track.
Once there i put my coat and hat on
as it was nippy to say the least. The paddock was surprisingly empty.
The hire car Slag was itching to get on track....
I went and watched some track action and soon saw Derek....
Once he had parked up i went over and said hello. The weather started to get a bit Scottish and wet... which was a shame as Derek was on new front Cups
We went for a cuppa and waited for the weather to pass which it finally did.
Derek went out on track and after a while came in an offered me a passenger ride which i gladly accepted.
I really liked the track and hope to drive it one day. It has up's and downs, blind corners etc. You defo need a good grippy set up to get the best out of it.
It was obvious that Derek had driven round there a few time by the way he pushed the car to find where the grip was in the slippery conditions.
All in all a good day and worth the 200 mile round trip. Good to meet you Derek and hope to catch up again soon.
A few more photo's.
