Just thought I would put this up as my gf has laughed at my sunburn.

A few tips to avoid this in the future.
1. Wear suncream. Strong factor
2. Don\'t wear a vest, go topless or wear a tshirt
3. When your friends wives say that your sunburn is really bad, don\'t use the excuse that "I\'m hard" and "I\'m a northerner" to not use cream or put a tshirt on.
Post up pics of your burns too.
Oh and btw I\'m not wearing a white vest in the picture that\'s just my pale skin. Lol
Wow! :2eek
I did see you showing Steve you were getting burnt and I thought you were going to put some cream on - nearly offered you my factor 50.
Another top tip - spend most of the afternoon under the club gazebo! :Thumbs-up
WOW that makes me feel better. Me, Shaun and Marcus chipped in on a bottle of sun cream. Guess I missed my nose and forehead off though cause Its red and sore now!

Steve gave me some factor 30, but I fear it was too late:( never mind. We don\'t have much sunshine in this country so best to enjoy it, and enjoy it surround by a great bunch of people. Great day.
4rotor was way cool but Carl\'s engine in the rx8 was my favourite of the day
yep pod tan strikes again.....classic
To be honest it\'s not painful, got my gf to cream me up just incase though :D
Hopefully be able to even it up 2moro with a bit of gardening, providing its sunny

that sounds rather ominous! :Giggle
just wish i didnt stay so far away otherwise i would have been there
bananaboat gel is the answer - apply liberally to affected areas - reduces \'baboon bottom\' and other redening ;)
Was pretty dam hot though, shame I didn\'t get to hear that dutch 4 rotor :( Anyone get any video footage of it ?
4rotor was cool, Carl provided the pp housings I believe :D it was a little quiet though, probably Due to the rear back box which was rather large
I too have caught the Sun a bit & my face feels a bit taught today :(
Can recommend sitting under the Club Gazebo though :Laugh
I thought the 4 rotor was a little tame sounding, however I reckon if he intends to actually use it on tracks then he\'s got to keep noise in mind. It\'s a shame though. I\'d love to see it when it is fully finished and being used hard.
I got caught even with the sun cream we bought from the shop. Missed a bit on my chest and its bright red !
Even the wind was warm when stood watching the sprint circuit !

Another Pod Facer here.
Yep got myself some pod face as well, but it was well worth it :)
Glad we managed to eventually convince you to get a t-shirt on and some sun cream on Grant, it was bordering of blister haha
Next time I\'m going to wear a hat as my necks stinging with a tshirt on. Just a hat that is. Lol
No pod face here, jist a good colour (that should turn brown eventually) still its matches Velocity Red.
been and got some bannana Boat stuff today... i forgot all about that stuff. smells so good too
Crissy has what i have names Pod Bod... its pretty much the female equivelent of your Pod Bod Grant... (dont get too excited people)
My face look like smacked a**e lol even with the sun cream at least it\'s not wind burn like last year.
face like a farmers arse here...

Sorry form missing you on the way down we drove through Sandbatch service about 7:50am and could not see you.
I got seriously burnt 1 year, it was a mix of sun and the windburn, massivly painful face, it went the colour of a dark red tomato, back to work the next day....working on the counter at a bank....great....*sigh* I now always get scared when going to the pod as it was soo painful :( factor 50 isn\'t enough for me it seems.

I got there about 8, and a few lads from fduk arrived about 830ish, so you were long gone, thanks for having a look for us :cool
