Silverstone - A Lasting Memory

[EnthuZiaZT]

What an amazing, incredible weekend. From meeting everyone at Horwood on Friday evening, to the 'Hell for Leather' lap round the circuit, the pace didn't stop from Friday Lunch time 'til Sunday Evening. It was great getting to know all the people and their partners that you have chatted to for so long, including Snoops & Seasurfer, Swamper & Boysie, Ragtop & Gookah and all those names that are so familiar on the forum.

Snoops & Seasurfers cake & Hornels Griddle scones went down a treat and despite the kettle whistle blowing constantly, we still came home with over 600 teabags, so out of 312 Zed owners and their passengers, either the majority are quite shy or just dont drink tea, which is probably just as well as we only had about 8 cups!!

Can't wait until Christmas, when hopefully, we all get together again

All parked up for the night at Horwood.

An early start on a beautiful Zedfest July morning.

Mora - all gift wrapped and shiny.

More great pictures, thanks for sharing, some very memorable photos for all our collections :ymhug:

 

[GazHyde]

Nice write up :-bd

Seems so long ago now, but the memories came flooding back!

 

[Snoops]

It's great looking at new photos - you just re-live it all again... was it only a week ago

I'm surprised you had so many T bags left, the kettle seemed to be on a constant boil and we managed with so few cups !! Speaking of which, I seem to have acquired a plain white one :-\

Glad I didn't wear my daft hat for the parade lap, you may have ended up wearing it coz it would have blown off for sure

Speaking of Christmas - the new Christmas thread is up and running Here s

 

[Ragtop]

Mike & Sandy many thanks for sharing your pictures, it brought back memories of a top weekend. :-bd

I just hope none of you heard me giving both barrels, in my best Scottish, to the Lotus driver struggling to get up the grassy bank and spraying mud over some of our cars :ymblushing: :ymblushing:

I did speak to some of you early on, but didn't manage to get back for tea & cake

It was great to meet you Nero

Was that the guy who drove up there then put a "for sale" sign on it ??

Fabulous pictures and have saved some for the collection. At least some of us had a hangover, persil paul indeed

 

[Zteve]

Indeed was a great weekend, even if I did get a telling off for driving too fast on the circuit, if you listen closely you will hear my Mrs nervously freaking out... :ymblushing:

I am sure you will see one or two of you guys heading out in line, I was parked up very near the gate so was with the last of the Z3's to roll out...
And my phone did survive, just... )

Likewise

There was a red Esprit? that first sprayed the mud, then as the cars were being cleaned, an old guy in an Elan did the same L-) L-)

 

[Snoops]

There they were, GONE!?

I've just realised that's me chasing an ///M - being chased by an ///M

I want to go back (

 

[Ragtop]

Enjoyed the video Steve, I saw my other 2 Dakar comrades, BrianH and TWO, plus many other forum members.

That is quite a dramatic picture actually, Snoops, an angry sky and the smoke trail from the plane, not to mention the rapidly disappearing Zeds!!

Did you watch Zteve's video where they dropped the phone, but it still kept videoing the dash!! ) If you keep watching the Zeds going by we both go past followed by Ragtop

 

[badman gee]

you heros

snoops, you can catch an M.

if he leaves his handbrake on

Oy you.... don't underestimate the Zippy/Snoops combo if I put him in sports mode and floor it, there's a focus RS in Bolton I have upset twice..

I did, didn't we all look good and stood out with our yellow ribbons I had to laugh at the "show must go on approach" priceless
