I hang my head in shame! Haha!
Thanks to all the guys behind me to being quick thinking and not driving into the side of me! Turned out that if you drop a cog while cornering the back end steps out!
Would someone possibly thank the guys over on the RX8OC as well? I presume some of them were from over there as I was the only 7 out!

Opps soz for posting...we all spin means your trying! Anybody know the driver of the rx8 that went into the barrier exiting camp? Got out and walked so hopefully ok.

1st session at quarry.

Well done Jon - thanks for posting those up :Thumbsup!

Nice spin Daniel - well held. Great to meet you, even if right at the end of the day. Sorry we didn\'t hook up earlier so you could have gone out as a passenger in 1st session.

My car may have been in the 1st video, but I can defo identify it in the 2nd! Shame about the wind noise at Quarry (and the rain towards the end!), so rotary sound not picked up, but great you took the trouble to film and post up, with wind and rain lashing at you

. Really enjoyed seeing cars from the trackside viewpoint!

Did you get any footage of the 13.06 session with (mainly) the Mazda MPSOC cars, plus two grey RX-8\'s (mine and Dave-B\'s) plus the Top Gear cars on track?

I never, in my wildest dreams, thought I\'d share a track with Jezza, Captain Slow and Hamster, let alone be in a position to easily outpace them, given they what they were driving :Laugh. May was fantastic - gave him a wave as I passed him and he smiled and waved back :Thumbs-up

Awesome Video\'s Jon
I was driving the Red and Carbon RX8 with the big wing and bodykit.
Your comments have made my day..
It was wet out there and it felt like I was at half speed at times.

Thanks..fair play for driving in those conditions. Very easy to lose grip and damage your pride and joy.

re japi · May 12, 2014, 03:32:59 AM

Ya, looked at Boosted`s vids and noticed those few Rx-8Â´s. They sounded and looked awesome!

Yes was very easy to lose it hahahha had bit of a brown moment and upset the mrs because I apparently nearly killed her I was only doing 70 wish when we started to spin

we stopped literally a foot away from the barrier! Plus I was out with the top gear boys so you never now it might be on tv there was a camera guy right in front of were we stopped

Was a great show as always pity I was late and only really got to speak to a few people

fair play thought there was some very nice rx\'s this year can\'t wait for next year already
