I"ve already sorted that, there will be no extra cost to anyone, as alun says I think they would rather have 16-17 of us racing than non at all ! Having said that, they reckon they could have sold the spot twice anyway. Good job I know them well.

There are a couple of places left, please be there for 3.30 at the latest to get signed in. If everyone could see me on arrival in the pavillion area where we can finalise names and numbers that would be ideal.
Thanks

Tony..

OK, OK, we have now peaked on numbers, thanks to everyone for their efforts, give yourselves a round of applause... and thanks from me ! There was a moment when I didn"t think we were going to get enough of us to participate in this event, so well done.

See you all tomorrow..

Tony.

I'm just about to set off.

See you all there - hopefully! The directions on the Daytona website aren't the best and they don't show a postcode on their website so I can't zero in with AutoRoute or MultiMap either.

So wish me luck.

If anyone see this before the off, I won't make it. Thunderstorms in Chicago meant my flight took off three hours late and I've only just got home.

I'm not up to spending 40 mins as a rolling roadblock.

I'm not fussed about the money, I always knew there was a chance of this.

Have fun.

Just got back (well, about ½ hour ago). 2hr10 there, 1hr20 back.

Great event, thanks Tony! Obviously not on top form today - I came a fairly poor 15th.

Paul (I think it was) with the chin-cam, if you have any footage of the part of the race where you were following kart 19 (me) for a while before making a superb overtaking move and getting past me then I'd love to see it. Please mail me via my profile.

Cheers
Jon

Very good oggs but i think the not lifting was proved by the amount of spins. i did manage to unlap myself from a couple of people I think, gave up keeping score after 2nd lap :-)

I think dontlift had too much downforce from his fancy helmet and that slowed him down on the straights.
