On a glorious afternoon, the end of season track day on 21/09/14 attracted the usual enthusiastic entrants plus some new faces and some different cars.
In a new twist (and many turns), a non-competitive auto test was available for anyone wanting to try something different while taking a break from running up the hill. As always in auto testing, it appeared that the machinery was willing but the memory was weak and it took a number of tries for entrants to follow the correct route, generating much hilarity for, and jocular verbal abuse from the onlookers. The irrepressible Scott Clements again tried unsuccessfully to launch the Clan’s pistons into the stratosphere with his own exuberant style and liberal interpretation of the test route. The four-wheel steering on the Honda Prelude was a definite asset and enabled the big car to demonstrate surprising manoeuvrability.
Everyone who tried the test finished with a big grin on their face and we hope that next year, there will be some new entrants for the club auto tests.
Thanks to Donald for the text and Trish for the photos.
