Leicestershire Mini-Meet

Post by D4 » Sun Jan 14, 2007 1:30 am

Since it seems all the rage at the moment - here are some pics from todays mini meet...

Ok so hardly a meet, Tony and Pet popped round to mine earlier and so speechless was I that they'd brought the B10 out for it's 1st outing of 2007 that I thought we should celebrate this rare occasion of B10 HOT hitting the tarmac by taking some pics...

thanks Neil.. we were trying to get a few pics taken before we lost the light... but got sidetracked watching a few Ferraris and a Porsche going round a track.. so these were taken just as dusk was upon us... so hence some of te pics seem a little grainy...

here's a pic of a 355 that was on track...

Andy,
Next time if you like a mini meet, don't forget to send me a pm. Then I may be able to attend as you know where I live.(But not exactly the address).

Glenn the plate was put on in October or November I think (have the receipt somewhere but not to hand right now...)

I'm sure I posted about it on here at the time...
