HiAsAKite 0 Posted June 20, 2005 Aha... miles away from us..... We managed to negotiate use of our neighbours paddling pool for the sunday which was an absolute godsend... That said there were a fair few 'antics' going on in and around houx Annexe (not all of them good). where we were. including a couple of tents deciminated by misfired fireworks..

andycowuk 0 Posted June 20, 2005 cool pics.... I hadnt considered that there was more to the race weekend than the race! This pic is a bit dodgy, with around a 3.384% beavo quotiant. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris VR6nos 0 Posted June 21, 2005 g-man, would one of those pics be of an actual real life rare Lancia Stratos!? Like this one: There were copies made of this full blooded rally car and "the way to tell a copy from the real thing is that the panels on the copy line up better!" Quoted from Jeremy Clarkson- Top Gear. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corozin 0 Posted June 21, 2005 Also spotted around the circuit this weekend: Maclaren F1, DeTomaso Pantera, Ferrari 250GT, Ferrari F50, a 1930 Bentley 4½ litre race car, Ultima GTR, Jag D-type, Arial Atom 275 (that must have been a long & windy trip!), the Sagaris, and the EVO-owned Lamboghini Murcielago Also, more TVR's, Lotus, Astons, Cobras, Ferraris, Caterfields, Lambos, Nobles and 'exotic' Porsches (GT2/GT3/RSR/Speedsters) than you would ever believe were registered with English plates on them. That said, I'm not exaggerating in that the Corrado group, who were located in almost the centre of Houx Annexe got a lot of notice from the other owners out there. Seems 8 Corrados together in the same place was a bit unusual and interesting for them, as it's a "forgotton" car for a lot of people Great racing, great group of people, great party, great trip.

stevemac 0 Posted June 21, 2005 g-man, The way to tell a "real" Stratos from a kit is the wheel studs - most kits only have 4 stud wheels - original Statos has 5. Shame we didn't see you there - maybe we can all get together in the circuit next year.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted June 21, 2005 I was there too, got back yesterday, much more tanned than when I left. Saw Darren but had no idea who else was there! Three of us managed to get right through the security and the woods to the moulsan (sp?) straight at 4am. We stood literally 4 feet from the tarmac with no barrier and the cars going past flat out at just under 200MPH. The Corvettes sounded just awesome, plus I have the whole thing on video for proof! Top Top few days and I am just glad I have the rest of the week off! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
