ShelbyFest 2008

Yes I have to congratulate all the organisers too for a good outing even as a by-stander. I'd have preferred to be driving but there's always next year!!

And thanks to you guys and gals on the track for behaving under the flags, this makes it safer for all involved and easier on us voluntary marshals.

Though I would suggest the club looks at getting some proper flags made up, cause the caution "fluoro vest" did get waved and seemed to get the intended message across but we'd look a bit more professional with the right shade of yellow flag.

I'd also suggest purchase of some basic form of communication devices to minimise delays and to also get quick feedback on problems and concerns. Again I'm thinking particularly of safety issues for those on the track but I'm sure this would help in other areas too.

I also loved the fact that there was a lot of track time opportunity. I know when I first manage a stint I'll need as much time as I can get to knock the bugs out of the car and my driving capabilities.

Looking forward to Winton in 09!

Cheers

Even without having my car there I still had a good time.

Great to catch up with everone. I think that's something I missed out on a last year when I had my car going. I was so busy running round working on the car or driving that I didn't get much time to chat.

This year I spent most of the week end behind the camera. I got some great video which I'm going to try to edit down and put on a disc.

I also bought a new digi camera on my last OS trip. It has a burst function like a motor drive on a film camera. You keep the button held down and it keps snapping pics. I took a bunch of these sequences from the marshals position at the esses.
