Copied an pasted from another thread

The NMR (and welcome guests) Stand

Starter for 10







Hmmm



Can you spot the Join



I see with my little eye (IC)





I like fishing too



Don't think he got it....

This is why I painted the Merc rather than wrapped it





Big bang theory (well expensive and probably terminal)



French Fancy



Seems sensible



Plenty of E30's



Nice tidy Manta A



Engine bay was very tidy



Unfaded 924



The Saab Bonnet acted like a mirror (No I thought about a selfie and then thought better of it)



Busy engine bay



I think After-market Hard top on this E30



A Monza - had some nice little touches when you looked closely



Obviously I and a few of the NMR are Monza fans



Sorted 3 door



Must stop looking at MKII Escorts - I can't afford one



Tidy little Micra (was on track latter - I have some pics)



rob0r 730



One of his group's E30



I love the club signage at RRG but I left this one behind - a picture was enough



TR6

[bstardchild]

Some more

That TR6 (three years had work in a single prefab garage - body off chassis full resto where the owner did everything himself and that included rebuilding the mechanical injection as well as painting it)



stuey Z4



Nice Ar5e



Not such a nice ar5e



And a slight over exposed front



Heck of a roof aerial



Another rob0r mates E38



E30 Rims



Tidy Honda



rob0r Jag (also went on track - Twice) may or may not have had issues



Rena 5 (I liked the wheels in the darker grey)



MKII Golf with a much later obrut engine - nearly 400 bhp according to the dyno print



Ronal Turbo wheels - still a favorite



Period accessory



Astra GTE in more valve format



One for Nigel spottedlaurel

[bstardchild]

Dustbin exhausts



Quite a taper



Time attack 205



V-tech yo



Mazda RX





E30





Outrageous Aero (I asked one of the support team how many times he'd caught his ankles on them and his face told me a lot)



Of course all that front aero needs balance at the back





tuxman (nice to meet you fella)



Business end





First of the public track sessions (not taken from the pit wall - it was a different pit wall)



Hudzoyne ? with full compliment of flaps



DTM replica (or tribute)



rob0r Dad?



MKIII? Fester



And from the other side of the Pit wall







Nissan 300ZX



That Jag again







Fester



Datsun or Toyota - not a clue really sorry not very knowledgable in that marque area



That Merc



I wonder who this belongs to?

[Hudzoyne]

Cool pics man! Really enjoyed the time on track, its actually made me want to improve the lada's handling and braking so I can try and hold a lead not just on the straights haha

[bstardchild]

MKII Fester



Colour co-ordinated gearbox on zetec on carbs



Kinda disappointed it left on the back of a beavertail transit - But I guess when you've spent that much effort on getting it super clean you hardly want to drive it......

Wide Arched MKI Escort (ish)



Engine well set back and low



Nope - just a battery and some cooling hoses - boot was empty too



Clutch of Cossies



Challenging drive on UK roads



MKII Goof



Because Racer breadvan



Vento missing VW Scene assesories on the roof



Probably slipped off and onto this bluebird



Hit and run



Probably more that once (number plate wasn't very well mounted)



Nnumber plate wasn't very well mounted



I thought Fisher Fury (Fireblade engine I could see that from stickers)



But I'm probably wrong



Reflecting on that subject



Minty 2002



DTM 190



Banded or reverse rimmed Vauxhall steels



Staggered fitment



jack (wheel envy)



Merc Cougar (always people round it)



Keeping with the big cat theme - Puma

[bstardchild]

When a mud flap bids for Freedom it's fine - when it flaps about for a while - not so fine



Usual comments from people around this Nova



More E30



Last public track session

Stately Progress from one the NMR guests





OK so he got braver



Dab of oppo



Capri





I was guessing kent on carbs



Driver and passenger looked happy







Nailing the apex



That Micra again





Not the best place for a picnic



Maybe 20 cars max on track and it still got crowded



Micra going round the outside of the Merc - great move



Off to take pics of tuxman - damn my tardiness

[miaspa]

Shameless self whoring- but I was there, found evidence on Facebook!!

[tuxman]

Nice too meet everybody who came over and said hello , we had a pretty good day :-)

[bstardchild]

Some F1





Some panning











Seemed like I could have picked a better place for flame out shots





Nice facilities provided to the F1 cars



Expensive issue



Followed up by quick response by the marshalls (prompted by the public to put the fire out)



Back to F1

So a smidge smokey



And at last I got the shot I was after



That's all folks thanks for looking in

[Colonelk]

Fantastic pics dude, that red Manta A and the Peugeot 205 with the honda motor are distinct favourites
