Thought i would post up some pics from my track day at Cadwell Park.
The day started early at 4.45am, a short drive to pick up the girlfriend and then we headed off for a 2hr drive to Cadwell, Louth, Lincolnshire.
As we arrived the sun was up and a few cars had already made it there, most being trailored in. I met a friend who used to own my 9, he'd camped over night and was already preping his car (westfield kit car)
We quickly unloaded and swapped over the wheels to my spare track set wrapped in some lovely used R888 GG tyres, next was the noise test, previously i had tested 93 and 92db so was curious as to what it would be with the different manifold on...... 87db so at 6000rpm this manifold is quieter than the Mugen 4-1.
The necessary safety briefing took place, all the same subjects were covered, but to my surprise there was quite a few novices and people that had never been to Cadwell (They was going to be in for a treat!)
Parade laps followed, then it was back to the pits for the start of the open pitlane time. This is the time when we decided to walk around and get some photos, let the numptys go out and crash early on before risking putting the 9 on track!
Cool Ford RS corner
Monster Evo
Had some big stoppers on it!
Always has to be one that doesnt listen
May look silly but it was mighty quick!
Collection of ontrack cars
Series of shots capturing a crash
