Did anyone here go, and if so how was it?

I was there on Sunday with my good lady. Was good to see a few people that we had not seen for a year or two. Motor racing in the snow was a new experience! The G20 and Junior racing was good as always. The G50s were impressive, but they perhaps need more room than is available at Cadwell to show off some proper racing. Not as many road going Ginettas there as I was anticipating, but the weather forcast perhaps put some people off.

You should have come and said hello, or did you see the work going on and didn't want to get roped in wink

The second G20 race was very good, the first was a bit of a non event apart from one driver climbing from 22nd to 10th:

I watched a little bit of the G50 race and would agree, Cadwell is a bit narrow for them but they still put on a very good show.

I was suprised by the lack of road going Ginettas but as you say could have been due to the weather forecast!

I did stop by for a chat, but everyone was under the car, except for Racing Pete who was a little preoccupied by re-designed rear end of the car. We expressed sympathy and moved on.

I was at Cadwell in the Silver G33 and it was a great event. It was nice to see G33 WOO again too as it used to belong to a Mate.

I couldn't go, I was in Cyprus enjoying warm weather and wishing I had the G33 with me.
