Pink Ladies – Charity Sprint

Shane — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 10:14:22 +0000

We took part in the “Pink Ladies” Charity Sprint last week-end. There were quite a few BMWs at the event and I am pleased to report that we did very well on the day. Grant and I had the fastest E46 M3′s on the day beating even the CSL. My car was the 6th quickest overall too which was an excellent result. Somehow, I even managed to have the overall fastest 64ft time at just under 2s!

This short video shows a few of our runs including Dave (Golf R32) and Tony (Vauxhall Monaro).

Here are the final results from the day for all competitors.

Just a rough version- I am playing with new video software so learning.

At Le Mans last year we had great fun, and here is a video of my M3 being followed by Tony in his Monaro. Once again we had cameras in both cars so you get two views. It always looks so much slower in the videos!

This clip is from the Le Mans trip in 2007. We used two cameras- one in the Monaro looking back and one in the M3 looking forward. We have plans for this year to get more organised and Shane has all sorts of plans to get more footage this year. Camera brackets and all sorts are being planned, but back to the video…

Lap from second trip to Bugatti Circuit Le Mans

The fourth track day I did was at Le Mans and it felt fantastic driving in the gates into the famous circuit once again. Had a fantastic time and here is a lap later on in the afternoon when the track was quiet. The next track day at Le Mans is on the second of August so cannot wait. Keep checking the track days section as there are more videos to be uploaded and they will be online soon.
