I'm coming over with a couple of friends of mine, one is really really keen on TVRs and would love a trip around the track with someone .. any takers??
oh don't let this sway you, but Sarah - well she's 16 years old, a body to die for, etc etc ... I know it'd be a chore but .....

Hi back to jonathan (cirks) .. loved your driving - very smooth... plus you can go to sleep safe in the knowledge that although you were passing tuscans and cerbies in your 450 it could be made even faster still .. cerbie SP12 in your sights now?? teehee.
also thanx to James at TVR MADS for the ride in the Tamora - great pit work putting the roof on half way through the session when the rain came down ..
good to see some familiar faces again .. Hi to Garth from N. Ireland .. hope the wipers worked better (I was behind you in the cavalier when you were getting soaked trying to make them work!! .. still you did have a smile on your face - cerbie that good huh?)
and lastly Hi to everyone else who knows me.

Thanks Jools - enjoyed having you along the ride. Worrying thing was that I think I got quicker later!

Um - I think I'll start with trying to catch Giles Coopers Tuscan! 150bhp more than me plus slicks I think gives a slight advantage! ....perhaps a few more occasional bits of tinkering with the 450 may be called for...Next stop is bigger wheels, improved rear suspension (which, as you quite rightly said needs sorting), bigger airflow meter and dumping of the EBC Greenstuffs...etc etc.

Hi to anyone else I chatted to on Saturday too, particuarly organisers and marshalls all of whom made it a brilliant day. SOOOOOO lucky with the weather too.

the photographer has some shots of you, he was limited to taking from the pit lane but the slight rise at that point looks great. In fact over 400 pics from the day.

David - great....send them over! p.s didn't get a reply re: any other shots of me at Combe other than the one originally sent as a sample? I'll get my order in as soon as I see the new ones from Sat and any others from Combe.

p.s - you should have come to say hi. Another person I could have put a face to name!

'rolled cerbie'? I didn't see that. Is that why one of the sessions was held up for so long? Sorry to hear about it - in defence of track days to the missus I was telling her I thought every car that got there under its own steam managed to drive home again. Oops.

Is the driver [and passenger?] OK?
