Petrolheads for Pets @ Red Star Raceway 25th July 2015

Here are a few pics I managed to snap inbetween sessions

I heard that there were 65 cars on track, and as far as I know there were no cars bent, nobody hurt out on track, everyone had a lot of fun, and the charity did well.
Can it get better

Big thanks to the sponsors

I subsequently heard there were 67 cars - even better!!

Thanks to everyone involved in organising, it was a great day.

First time round RSR, the opposite way to what I was expecting and in the wet, was one of the most hilarious things I've ever done in a car. I hadn't a bloody clue where I was going, even with someone telling me But it allowed me to post a really crap lap time that could only improve!

Your "crap" lap time equalled my best for the day!
It was a great day though and the softness and I would like to add our thanks to everyone involved as well.

Ditto.

So what was the crap time?

seems like so much fun, wanted to come around, but had other plans unfortunately.

Times for the 4 sessions were:

1) 2:57
2) 2:47
3) 2:38
4) 2:31

By session 3 I kinda had an idea where I was going. I had the Stigworx Box on the car which helped hugely in terms of comparing lines and seeing where I was going wrong

[GeeTee86]

2:31 is good!

My best was 2:47

Still for our first ever track day it was huge fun and my good lady would also like to say thanks to all the other group A novices for not giving her any stick because her best times were 3:20 (albeit in the wet.)

@CWP68 - very nice.
2m31 for your first day at Red Star is wonderful in anybody's language.
Well done!! and well done StigWorx!!

Red Star is a big leveller. BHP means so little there.
You gotta get the corners right, and obviously you're well on your way there.
Where we going next?

How about Midvaal? Also a very safe track, but different and faster.

WOW! What an AWESOME day!

Thanks everyone for attending... Hachi's ruled the pits!

Also a huge thank you to @JouMaSeHoes and Imperial Toyota for making this day possible, as well as to everyone else involved... All the hard work payed off, and the day was a HUGE success!
@Fish Eagle, you are the best... for taking all those people for hot laps at your own expense, and putting all the money raised towards the charity, that is really really awesome...

Pro Life Pet Rescue is over the moon, and so thankful... The final amount raised on the day will be posted once finalized.

The appearance of Leeroy Poulter made the day so much more special... and how cool was it to see him drive one of the Tokyota Crew's 86's...

Total of 67 cars entered on the day! Here is some (to many to post ALL here) I snapped on the day:

Awesome pics,
@Alang what time did Leroy Poulter manage to set with your 86?

I actually have no idea at all!!??
But it was wet and he was being very respectful and gentle. So incredibly controlled though, beautiful long slides with very little drama.

Absolutely fantastic day out, thanks to all!
