Default A nice gathering at the track

On Wednesday a bunch of us went to Oulton Park and had a great day's track driving. One of the lads (Hugh) grabbed a few shots that I thought I'd share.

Kev's 964RS lightweight:

The happy owners after a great day;

Thanks for sharing those... great cars in some great colours. I always enjoy seeing our cars on the track as I think it's where they really impress.

Can anyone shed ligh on what roll cages are in them. They all look to be fairly similar in configuration. Are they the standard "Matter" cages and are they a full cage?

Thanks,

Neil

The best I can do for you Neil is;

The NGTs (the maritime blue and mint green ones) have factory cages that have been welded in and yes I believe they are made by Matter. The RSR is a bespoke car built by Jurgen Altzen using an RSR shell and therefore I believe has a bespoke cage too. The RS lightweight has a bolt in cage (I'm not sure of the make).

Damn.

My mate Paz (blue 968) kept asking me to come along to this, but I didn't have my 964 and I spent the day fixing a toilet.

In the fourth picture, what's the red thing behind Kevin's RS?

No, not the bin...

Nice track and beautiful cars. I'm starting to think that unless I am going to climb Pike's Peak anytime soon, I really need to drop mine a couple of inches. I like the pic of the motley bunch too.

Looks like an S2 Elise to me John.
