Thanks Ajay and David for a well organised day. The instructors were great as well.
I've started pondering getting a cams license so I can do more track days....

Those photos are awesome Colin. Do you have any of the blue NB8A with a hardtop?
I got a few shots of others but didn't get any of myself as I was too busy driving! :lol:

Sorry I dont - I have some of the Getz, XR6 and a couple of other MX5 - but not many were sideways (when I took them) - (the instructor in the Getz was holding on for grim death)

Thank you to the guys at mania, had a great day :D

Between my friend and i, we took 1700+ photo's (of every one, in RAW format for those who understand) so please be patient with me as i edit them over the coming weeks. i can put together a cd/dvd (for about $5) of the photo's from the day if you are interested.

No worries Colin. Thought it was worth asking.

GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have finally sorted out all the photo's from the skid pan day. it took a bit longer than expected due to work commitments (ive been doing 12-16hrs a day since the skid pan day) and my internet is screwed at the moment.

i have around 1500 photo's in total, i have 25 to 125+ photo's of every one. i hope to give the guys at mania some of the better photo's on thursday night to put up on their fb.

how do i get photo's put up here as i will also post a few here if i can get my web to work??

here is the photo's i spoke of yesterday, they only have very minor editing using the camera's editing program. these are also low quality to assist upload speeds

i hope you guys like :-)
