Not heard anything bad about them, and the track and all the marshalls are part of MSV, Jonathon Palmer's company, so you should have an excellent day.

Did you tick the box for the optional sunshine?

I'll be there. Black clio 200.

Did a day with opentrack at Cadwell earlier in the year. Really enjoyed it. Friendly bunch, well organised, good tuition.

Will be there, fingers crossed no noise issues as my car is usually a bit borderline. Forecast is promising, should be a good outing :-)

Nice one guys, it should be good. I even see the rain has moved back a couple of hours!

Oh I saw that, I do like those.

Day seemed to disappear otherwise would have said hi guys.

Good day for me and most of my friends however my mate's esprit never made it out :-(

Lots of cars out there however I didn't see any red flags which was good, generally some good driving though some people struggled with their mirrors!

Yeah, enjoyable day. I think the highlight for me was seeing the classic Bentley heading out, sadly it only did a few laps but good to see nonetheless. I think it ties with the company van for today's least likely track vehicle.

Missed the Bentley unfortunately but the van was hilarious and a little wild.

Skoda jeti I thought was a strange one but had some nice mods
