Some of my iphone efforts in the paddock.

What a fantastic couple of races, some of the best action on track i've seen.
Some of the back markers made for some interesting overtaking for the leaders!













and many thanks to Tim, Jamie and Jason for making the boys day, sitting in their fantastic cars

indeed the leaders in each class were using any advantage they could find, including using the slower cars where they thought they could get an advantage. Made it quite interesting all round. I think everyone fast or slow did a great job, whilst having an erm Robust race.. there were certainly no prisoners taken when lapping traffic.

One of the most frustrating, stressful & expensive weekends of my life but i learnt allot and still managed to have some good racing, gonna find out how much more the weekend cost over the next couple of days and hope engine 2 is OK then try and sell the wife to get the car ready for Snetterton!
My Video of race 1 coming from the back makes for some very interesting viewing with some very near misses smile Race 2 is not a bad view either so i'll try and get them up!
Major thanks must go to Darren D and John my mechanic + Rob and Boss who collectively went above and beyond to get me out clap
As the old man used to say falling downs easy its how you get up that defines you!

Hey I learnt a lot this weekend ,had no backup and still had the car out despite half a gearbox in race 1
Thank you to everyone who I have never had to ask for help and did so without question ...
Christian ..for lending me your gearbox ...I will never call you again !! Lol
Rob (boss racing) without you we would not have been out there
Dan and Leigh and Bro ..who without question got stuck in to get their hands dirty and get the car back on track
And to John Reid who has already rebuilt my box
What a fantastic series we have and so proud to be part of it

Despite the frustration of only completing one racing lap it really was a great pair of races. Watched the first race on Cooper straight at very close quarters and Tim and Dean were awesome. Race 2 was over for me on the start line and I was towed back to the paddock in time to watch the last part of the race from the bottom of Paddock hill. Again a great race. My guests thoroughly enjoyed the racing which went a long way to make up for a car that refused to pick up fuel.

A great tribute to Gary and so good to see Andy and Dave Bartrum enjoy the occasion. Well done everybody.

Hi Graham. I am not sure is the honest answer. Have had problems since Donington last year when the car stopped on the grid. Happened at Rockingham, after installing a completely refurbished tank with new pumps, foam, pickups etc, which we thought was due to running out of fuel but now appears not to have been. The car cuts the fuel supply randomly and at other times runs perfectly OK. Now going down the route of damaged electics, wiring, pump switch etc.

No problems in qualifying for 20 laps then it cut after one lap in race 1 at Brands and cut out off the grid in race 2.
