We went up to Thruxton on Saturday and Sunday for the qualifying and raceday and to cheer on our friend racing the porsches. So here's a few of the pics we took.

The Clios were up to their usual tricks and were very entertaining if not a tad scary as there was a 4 car pile up in qualifying and then again in the race so that was stopped...

Heres are mate in his Porsche that finished 3rd to Tim Harveys 1st so mighty chuffed for him (Y)

The Touring cars qualifying and practising

Was cool to see Menu racing

A couple of the new Seat Leon's

A few from the Vauxhall stands

On Sunday VXRonline were kind enough to let us park with them and meet up so was nice to meet a few of them.

Anyway............Here are my pictures from Sunday:

The long line of Monaro's we were behind:

Nice Ford on the way in:

Mad helicopter doing things helicopters shouldn't:

Touring cars:

Clio's:
