Following the "Pictures from ..... event" trend that's going along, i thought i'd post some of the pics from the Lotus Club Grattan Track Day (October 11th & 12th 2003).

Eventhough, there was just one ITR and maybe another handfull of Hondas (few S2000, Civic Si and a Caterham 7 replice with S2000 engine) it was a blast. Perfect weather both days and great time hanging out with many h-t members who opted for the Gingerman event the same weekend.
Now, onto the pictures:

Saturday morning




The track is somewhere in there

Few Porsches


This one spun while passing me. Did a full 360 during which drivers door opened. He saved it from the guard-rail too!


Lined up for the morning touring session - aka. drying out the track

 

Older RX-7


Three-wheeling Jetta


Old school

 

Surprisingly, Viper GTS ACR wasn't the fastest out there that weekend


Mustang (plenty of front camber - too much actually) - very friendly owner/driver - more power to him. He's looking for new shocks for X-mass btw.


I think he was the fastest ....

 

Fast little torqueless thingy


One of four that weekend


A black one for a change


And finally, a blue one

 

Another turboed car - the GT2




Home made mid-engine 911




Birkin (speaking of Birkins, how was the demo at Gingerman?)

Esptit


Another Lotus - a rare one i presume?


RX-8 basking (sp?) in the early Sunday sun


Fallowed by the M5


Honda power!

And finally, the ITR

If i remember correctly, the car is stretched 5" and is waiting for the bigger engine - it had a 2.4l ~210hp one so far.
Maybe those pics will suffice your curiousity

 

wow great track and cars
