PascalM 42 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 13 hours ago, Steve1 said: I've already put a post on Facebook on the Lotus 70th page. Basically me and my misses decided to take some pictures and videos of everyone entering the track, you might have seen us standing there as entered the long straight(Mansell strraight if I'm correct)Where everyone did 15mph... I've started uploading them on YouTube under "Lotus arriving at Hethel test track 70th". My misses was taking pics as well which she said when she gets time she will go through them and edit them. The first pic and video we took was at 08:23 and was a red Esprit SE high wing and the last car we shot was a yellow Evora 400 at roughly 09:21. If you did arrive between those times there's a good chance we've captured you. My internet at home is a bit slow so I'm uploading them at work, I've still got some more to but I should be done by the end of the week..... @martynv I definitely got you.. Any chance of seeing the video and/or pics “somewhere else’. I’m not on FaceBook... Yet I know that some FB pages are public and thus accessible, even if you don’t have an account. Could someone provide me the link to the viedo/page? Would love to see my entrance, I fit in the recording time. Many thanks in advance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post SJP68 52 Posted October 8, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 It was a great day, from being in a queue of lotuses on Potash Lane in the morning to driving round the test track for the record attempt. Yes, I have played 'Find my car' and my car does appear in a couple of the drone shots as well as on the video taken from the grandstand, that was kindly uploaded. So I have attached some of my pictures, including one looking back at the grandstand. Like other people I took a lot of photo's, so having difficulty choosing which to add, guess I will have to create a gallery. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
