For those amounts they must be some kind of series cars so probably all modified, positive thing is usually they are all decent drivers. I do find weekday events have much less idiots (that said there are 10 BMW's)

Will be some interesting tussles with the RX8's+VX220's

TVR S2 7 seconds to 60 and 130mph top speed, one these might be a nice match for competitive fun

RX8 (192) 7 seconds and 139mph
RX8 (231) 6.2 and 146 mph

Hi.
Most of the cars on the list are better at going round corners, S has a poor back end when it comes to hard racing on a track.

Looks like I have left it to late for this one I have put my name on the reserve list hopefully some of those foreign cars will drop out.;)

I have been on reserve lists a few times and always got on the track, for a full day the afternoon session always has quite a few drop outs, so worth going.

[trev4]

That sounds promising

[trev4]

Many thanks to Peter I now have a place for Monday can't wait be good to see an S on the track Barry is coming to watch perhaps you lot could talk him into having a go

[NickOrangeTVR]

I seem to remember someone talking about a Sunday night get together? what was the plan?

[mk1fan]

atom111 and I will be having dinner at the Brekland, a few drinks and an early night - separate rooms.

Fantastic Day.

Managed my 1st ever off.....video currently processing and also chased a couple of Chims fairly hard.

Barry's brother couldn't quite get rid of me 4:-)

[MPoxon]

Yes another great day. Good to catch up with all the regulars.

Fantastic, I shall look forward to seeing the footage. I was really impressed by your S, you were lapping really quickly.

[mk1fan]

Managed 150-miles on track at around 13.9mpg.

Great day, great weather, some good chats. Wanted to chat too more of you guys but was caught up in getting on the track.

Tamy was great all day - tyres took a beating!

Got home with no dramas.

Roll on the next day (Oulton Park in November for me).

Post some photos tomorrow.

I have to agree, a great day with great company.

Car ran faultlessly all day but my tyres really are shot now.
