Here you go

I hope The JPS Octy recovers. It was being towed away last I saw of it!

 

Towed Byran down to Main entrance, Throttle position sensor seemed to be the problem, Skoda Assistance were called, a 45 minute wait, be interesting to see what time he gets home.

 

Had a good day, 5 seconds quicker than last year on a circuit supposedly 2 secs slower, happy with that, roll on the National meet :clap:

When I got home and scanned the Golf  -  Of the 19 VCDS scan areas I recorded 16 Malfunctions after a massive hiss fit during familiarization session.

Luckily after a rest the car recovered enough to do the timed laps.

 

Having got home and cleared all the fault codes everything seems to working fine so have no idea what went wrong

 

That's progress for you

[Jonsen]

Had a great day out guys thanks. Good circuit, definitely need bigger brakes on the car though, came off at the chicane see video below. Pressed the pedal and hardly anything there :(

Thanks for your tow, Andy

RAC guy arrived quite quickly, checked to see if throttle was sticking, then towed me back to Grantham services, then transferred me to another truck - got into Horton Skoda just before 5.20pm and will have to wait until Tuesday before 'damage' can be assessed.......

New pedal usually when the TPS goes in them.  Not a common failure and not something usually associated with track wear and tear either.

Car drove like a dream going down there, but only took a couple of laps for the 'coil' light to come on, then lost power temporarily and came into pits

Switched off, Andy ran a scan and id'd the throttle problem, I then started up and tried again and had the same issue

Didn't run on the timed laps, went to start her up to leave and it just fired up and died straight away.......sad times :(

[muddyboots]

Didn't get official timings, but going off my video, I reckon my first timed lap was about 1m42s.

 

Biggest problem (not unexpected for a fairly standard Yeti) was massive amounts of understeer and ESP cutting in!

 

Great fun though.

In the past has anyone organised a 'Briskoda Group' purchase of photos to get the price down?  I might be interested in 1 or 2 pics but not at £7 or £10 - for a digital download???????.

 

But an order for 10 a or 20 pics could be an option but I do not know the logistics of downloading and distributing the pics, if they allow such a purchase.

What a good idea, I'm sure we'd get away with it lol

How did you get all those dials,

Thats cool.

Thanks Brimma

Well the photographer didn't like Taylor in the fiesta.....

Sorry, did I miss something there?

Not you Bryan, the MSV photographer. I think he may have put Taylor in the next session, as that was a mountune/ford session.

[James I]

The official MSV photographer didn't take so many pics really, also does Bedford really slope that much? I don't remember driving up Au Rouge.

 

Nowt wrong with Brimma's panning shots, sharp and with nice wheel blur to let people see where were on it!

Got you........surprised he didn't do the same with the Focus

 

Half of the MSV lads there don't know their Fabias from their Octavias, they clearly think Skodas are the seed of the devil

As I came there as a passenger with Richard I had no car. The lad with the list looked at me and said "what are you driving" I said I come on the bus, and he looked at his list for a moment and then realised what I said...

Had a great time out on track, won't be joining in on a group buy of photo's, Yetikent and Brimma took the better picture's :clap:

No printout's at the end, or Trophies for the top 3 drivers this year, slightly poor show from MSV, staff were polite enough if lacking in car knowledge.

[octavia5]

Agree, the pics Brimmas has sent me will do nicely - many thanks.

 

Pity the 'official' photographer tried to stop pics being taken from the pit lane, guess he works freelance and was trying to protect his revenue stream but since these sessions are not cheap it was a bit much to try and stop attendees from taking pics which would obviously only be for personal use.

 

Not seen Yetikents pics yet, would be interested is he has any of my silver Golf

[KaroqKent]

See post #423 in this thread. The quality is not as good as BRIMMA's but it's only a point-and-shoot compact which is probably why no one bothered to stop me taking photos.

Being from a 'gangster' part of North London, I would of just simply said "bounce mate" if he tried to stop me.

Well, the big screen wasn't working, the printer apparently wasn't working and no trophies...

Very unusual for them.

 

I believe Trophies are being sorted out, but for the top three drivers in Skoda order only, as it was a Briskoda session with guests.

 

So

 

1. Yeti (Fox)

2. Fabia VRS (Jabo)

3. Octy VRS Estate (Noisy Dave)
