A big thanks to Marc for his stills and to Andy W, Gareth and Mike for shooting video when the camera was thrust into their hands
 There are loads (80+) of photos of the day - some mine, most Marc's - which will be up on Photobucket in the next couple of days. Here are a couple that didn't make the video:   -------------------- |

That video is the business Andy
 The editing really captures how hectic and exciting a day it was. Chuffed to see so many of my photos used, I was a bit worried when I handed you the card that there would only be a load of rubbish on there but looks like I just got away with it, apart from the presentations. I think ho came out of the day really well, people were blown away with how fast our cars are and Andy's demo track was rivalled only by the BSCRA layout, frankly the manufacturers present need to have a look at themselves. And we just do it for the love of it! you should be very proud Deane and well done to all of those who made it happen.

That's really nice work Andy.
Great to see a bit of the afternoon's racing that I missed too, especially Jim's lucky escape! -------------------- |

Well Andy, you have once again excelled yourself, that Video really does capture the speed of all the cars especially the Pro Mods.
Yes I was surprised when I saw I had won the Mod Final, as I was too busy having a battle with Tony to even realise, so a good result for me. Really glad to be part of EAHORC and the HO scene, and proud to tell anyone that will listen about our fun hobby. Thanks to everyone that made the event happen and to the Head Master Deane for keeping us all in line and getting us in early for practice. The last time I had to join a queue and line up I was 12 years old and on a school trip, but they were never as much fun as we had at the HOGP. See you all at Worthing for the next round, I believe we are upstairs this time so set your cars up for racing at altitude.  John F |

QUOTE (stonemanPJ @ 24 May 2011, 09:02)  I believe we are upstairs this time so set your cars up for racing at altitude. Loss of engine power due to thinner air, aero not working as well when flat out....  -------------------- I miss racing!!

Damn,
That was a lucky escape, a couple of inches to the left and it could have been the end of the day for me! Jim --------------------  |

Yes, as I said the best slot car video I have ever seen so putting it there was a total no brainer...

I'm sure all the pics will be up soon on the EAHORC photo bucket and a slide show on the website.
Here's a couple more from the F1 A final to keep you going
