BaileyMex Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 Just wanted to say on behalf of all the admin team a massive thank you for all who came with us today to Ford Fair Weather held out and I even got a little bit burnt CHEERS Your support is always greatly appreciated
stevepeanut Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 just got back home, hard day, up at 5am to get there. Got a pass and had my car on the classic ford mag stand, and got to do 2 laps of the track with the huge convoy of capris, anglias and series 1s escorts. I went to the osf stand in the afternoon but didnt see anyone off here that I know, bumped into Dave (cortinamad) when I got there. Had a really good day, an excellent show
BaileyMex Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Posted August 2, 2009 I have alot of good pictures get them up then mate
samurai Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 Im uploading but it take so longggg! The photobucket bit will take for ever Stay tuned
Trevmk3 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 was a good day, shame there werent more OSF's but i know some people dont want to go as there is so much plastic but it is a show for all fords. i had a few trips round the autojumble and saw a pair of front wings that i wanted, that was until the bloke said he wanted £450 for the pair so i didnt buy them did anyone see the focus bin it into the tyres? made a right bang as me and my mate were over looking at the cars near to where it happened, then everyone rushed over to the fence. the driver got out alright and it was fully caged i think (rally style of car, new RS shape) although there were a few bits hanging off.
samurai Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 Yeah i expected more osf. I have never seen so many Cossy,Focus,RS T and Ka in my whole life before And every car had a Cossy engine
Trevmk3 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 think i totally missed the Ka's, not that im complaining or anything but i think the only one i saw was on the track

Mr Sam Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 did anyone see the focus bin it into the tyres? made a right bang as me and my mate were over looking at the cars near to where it happened, then everyone rushed over to the fence. the driver got out alright and it was fully caged i think (rally style of car, new RS shape) although there were a few bits hanging off. aparently a steering joint broke at about 100mph so he lost his steering a cossie rolled and andy harris couldnt stop at the end of the sprint

Some big sweeping bends and difficult to judge the turning/braking points at high speed... I'm not surprised a few lose it each year
glenbo Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 great pics im gutted i couldnt make it love the orange granny will be there without fail next year
immingham Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 That Focus came past me on a trailer on the m6 near Warrington, it did look in a sorry state someone's got a hefty repair bill
MK2Ed Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 That Focus came past me on a trailer on the m6 near Warrington, it did look in a sorry state someone's got a hefty repair bill If he's clever he'd be trackday insured - for mullering expensive mahinery it's well worth the £75...
