Here's the one pic I took today, showing a new generation (and occupants of my child seats!) enjoying the FCSS pickup truck.

Minimetaller in this pic does a fine job of representing the grumpy old man generation laugh

I consider myself still of the grumpy young man generation... But I suppose I am the oldest person in the truck there - scary.

Great day out my first coupe event lots of fun on the way up in the convoy with dan and the boys only downfall was my throttle cable snapped on the way home. The RAC got me going again though thank god only problem is finding a new cable now.

Good day out, if somewhat cold frown

Lovely machinery there, 288GTO, 3 x F40's, more 360's and 355's that you can shake a stick at, Lambo gallardo superleggra, LP670 SV, Aventador's, Oakley Design's Aventador.

Found some photo's of the coupe on track here http://www.flickr.com/photos/tonysphotos/page4/ and my apparent 20vt on the test hill laugh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQY9N8Ot2no

Was a good day smile

With a great turn out of coops.

Am proud to say that I worked on the 288GTO with the Barkaways plates & Sarah my wife went round the track with its customer tongue

Hope next year is warmer......

It WAS cold, and I took pity on my son about 3 o'clock - he also wanted to watch the Cup Final, and he wishes he didn't!

Great turnout - nice to see some new faces as well as old, and had a good chat with Barbz - a few pearls of wisdom there. Many thanks to Thunderbox for the pedals!!

The Lambos were just stunning - the Oakley special and the matt black were amazing. Nearly bought a lottery ticket on the way home, but then I would just have spent the jackpot on a few more Coupes cool

Good turn out once again but the coops seemed to be dotted around all over the place, weather was winding me up a bit too, but still lots of lovely cars there. Sorry didnt get to catch up with some of you, time seemed to go quick, plus spent some of my time in the boring brief for the track time and then queuing up for it, but I did enjoy it...

Not as many photos as last year as the drizzling rain was annoying me and it was pretty chilly too.

That Ferrari 458 Italia in Blue and Silver was bloody delicious! (Drool)

If anybody has any photos or videos of me on the track I would love to see them please! (Moonie Plus with 18" Azevs)

Thanks.

i dont know if it was just me but i found the marshalls really helpfull and polite

when i first got there i had travellled through some wet stuff and brought some water to rinse the coupe down and one of the marshalls came over and said if i need anymore water they have prepared a supply for people to use.....rather thoughtfull

Was a good day out, weather not great but it could've been worse!
Was great to see so many coupes there, and also to meet a load of forum members, some I already knew, and some I didn't smile

Aside from the weather, I really enjoyed the day, despite getting up at 3.15am! zzz hehe

Only my second Coupe meet, but nice to meet a few new faces as well as have a chat to those I met at the AGM - you were all sober this time ( I think! laugh )

Some great pictures and videos posted so far. I will get round to posting some not so god photos later this week too smile
