Eh? It's at 6am. We'll have been told every hour on the hour on the radio who bloody won, as we drive up.

And it's going to be a Red Bull 1-2 anyway wink

You'll be fast asleep before the race hits the first corner.

Don't be so harsh on yourself. Driving a convertible doesn't necessarily make you a wker.

Its supposed to spread the impack over a wider area, you still feel the impact. That first right hander after the start/finish straigh I was taking it flat, there is a little dip near the apex which was making the kart jump, when it landed the seat was slamming into my ribs.

Thanks for sorting it all out. I had a great time, even as the wooden spoon winner. (I'm considering changing my name to "The Chef".)

I was overtaken on the M1 by some bummder in a knackered E36 with numberplate more appropriate for a sideways M3... I kept an eye out for bits flying off it!

Cheers for organising Gerald. Great turn out and a great crowd. Followed Ferris' donkey on the way back for a bit, that engine sounds absolutely magical. Oddly, it made me want a Maserati Quatroporte (the old, square one) really, really badly. Very much liked Louie's 540i Touring too, looked a proper tool

I am absolutely dying again from it, my shoulders are utterly destroyed. Off for a very cold/very hot/very cold shower to try and sort it out. Pain killers have been deployed.
