I really enjoyed myself yesterday. Went with Nelson92 and was on the tmf stand.
Really loved the track action specially when that red bini got towed off and everyone cheered (made my day). There was some lovely cars on show and some of the racers were just unbelievable quick.

Also meet acouple of fellow tmfer's for the first time. Kam, mdickson, gigner monkey, EatSleepJDM really liked chatting to you guys :mrcool:

I fell in love with Endaf Ownes auto grass estate,the one with TWIN hayabusa engines in the back ;) and also his yellow track car. That was just unacceptabley quick. Whats that car running by the way does anybody know?

Will upload my couple of pictures when i get time

Yesterday was brilliant! so many stands i was lost and didn't know what to buy!!! the minis there were awesome, i couldnt believe the speend of some of them, and yeah that grass track estate was mental! we were talking to him and he said he built it in 3 weeks which is crazy!

Ah man i missed the bini bit :mrcool:

also did anyone see or know the guy on the last session in a yellow mini, which looked mint and was seriously fast, who lost it in quarry corner and hit the barrier, man i felt so sorry for that guy! i hope he manages to fix his Mini as it was a MACHINE!

I did. I think it was for sale as well. I felt really sorry for them, they nearly held it and made it round Quarry on the grass, but caught the tyre barrier at the last minute which span the rear end into it, and did some serious looking damage.

I had a great day, lovely to see some TMFers here and there, glad to see I coordinated well with Huey's new paint job, he was looking awesome. Sadly Arthur wasn't ready to take in time as he's still being put back together after his gear box troubles, and didn't meet any new TMFers, because they were all too busy having fun elsewhere when I visited the stand (but I'm sure I'll meet some more of at Malvern if I make it, or next season).

ahh no poor guy, yeah the damage looked quite bad, i was sat quite far away and could only see the back but it was all dented in.

Also it was good seeing the minis beat some other serious fast cars at the end like the civic type R mx5 etc, but that maestro that was there was balistic!
