thelastbandit Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 My **^&%*&^% Camera started playing silly buggers in the afternoon, I took a total of 89 photos and only the ones you see here: http://www.edturners.tv/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=115 came out anywhere near half decent, what is odd, however is the fact that ALL the pictures I took of the Old Skool Fords came out fine, the ones that didn't were other Fords like Sierras and Focuses etc. Maybe my Camera was trying to tell me something Anyway normally I charge £4.99 for a Hi Res Version of any photograph on the site, but if anyone wants any of the ones featured on the Ford Fair page, just PM me and it's yours for free. I have to say that this is not one of my better albums! C''est la vie! Anyway on a lighter note, I really enjoyed the event and it was great to meet you guys and in particular Tony (Petrolhead1), Darren (Posse) and Ian (Driver) Videos coming soon (including Tony's Spin off) hehe Cheers Geoff
petrolhead01 Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 nice pics geoff!!! bring on the video!!
DEP Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 Nice one Geoff, it was great to finally meet you, will look forward to seeing the rest of the track time video
thelastbandit Posted August 6, 2007 Author Report Posted August 6, 2007 Hi Guys. I'm sorry to say that the Track Video is not as good as I hoped it would be, and it is 100% my fault I'm afraid. However in my defence I'll remind you that it is the first one with my new toy (Roll Bar Bracket) and some adjustments will be needed. It's not terrible, and the problem that I thought might happen hasn't (wobble), the main problem with it, is that the Rear View Mirror obscures quite a lot of the track, next time the roll bar bracket needs to go either to one side, or further back still. Anyway I'll do what I can with it and hope you won't be to critical We all learn from our mistakes, and I've learn't a big one from this vid, the rest is all good though. (But I warn you now, there's a bit of Plastic Fordie in there too) Gotta keep everyone happy. Hoping to have first Video upload by end of day today, if not defo tomorrow. One thing that struck me as quite funny is that you, Ian, look a hell of a lot like Vinnie Jones in your Rear View Mirror, you'll see what I mean when I upload the vid. Tony, I spoke to my bodywork guy re the Project 300E and he's much happier with the Cross member and Mounts as you described them, so good times all round! Cheers.

Gonna get that awful paint sorted soon tho its better on the other side but will soon have respray!!!! Mate, in my book anyone who chooses an old Ford over a new one should be proud of whatever they own, however it's painted! Look at the state of my 300E, it ain't even got paint on it, just lots of dust and surface rust! But I'm still really chuffed with it and PROUD to own it! Enjoy your MK2! P.S If you want the big version of the pic let me know

Gonna get that awful paint sorted soon tho its better on the other side but will soon have respray!!!! m8 my mk2 escort is about as ruff as they come with a mot on it. the thing is it makes great daily transport and everyone loves it they dont have to be mint to get a good reaction

bronze4door Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 i wondered why that white rs was behind me for so long with it being much faster
PIG Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 good vid there m8,spotted my pass on the wrong side of ian on the parade lap
thelastbandit Posted August 7, 2007 Author Report Posted August 7, 2007 Aha! So it was you in the yellow 'scort! The Track Vid is actually longer than that, but I cut the bits out where nothing but track and Ians face in the rear view mirror were visible, if anyone wants the full vid let me know.
DEP Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 i wondered why that white rs was behind me for so long with it being much faster I was trying to get as many cars as possible in it , My car might have been a bit faster than yours mate, but i was struggling in the corners, think i had the shocks too hard, and i deffo need to get that slipper fitted good vid there m8,spotted my pass on the wrong side of ian on the parade lap You naughty boy Paul, no tea for you. Geoff, as i said in the other post, it is a shame about the mirror, I d like to do more track stuff once the cars sorted a bit better, maybe we can hook up again at some point and give it another go
DeanMk1Capri Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 Shame I couldnt get out on the track (misfire) looked like a good crack - cool vid
