Lime Rock Park

[innit Geezer]

Tomorrow I'm going to Lime Rock Park for some casual road course instruction with my son on there autocross track. We're taking our winter beater, a 1991 BMW 325i.

I'll try to get some good pictures. It'll be interesting to see how my driving skills compare to my sons. He's a competitive young man but I'm no slacker, taking a best lap time (years ago) at a BMW X5 product launch. Poise, with throttle open!

Had a great outing dispite breaking and dislodging a few parts.

We broke a motor mount which moved the engine forward pushing the fan into the radiator. I also shed a brake cooling duct tube. All this happened late in the day but luckily we were able to limp the car home.

I learned a lot about high speed maneuvers, I apun out going 50 mph trying to negotiate a quick twist in a short straight away.

I'll post some pictures when I get them sorted.
