Yes. I'll be there with my girlfriend in her white 991 GT3. It was new on Tuesday, so she'll be learning the car and finding out how little grip the car has in the wet!

Count me in! Blue 997 C4S - its first time on track.

Currently on lift in my garage in preparation, just need to get the front suspension back on & new PZeros fitting tomorrow morning!

Fingers crossed the forecast will change and be dry.

Come say hello.

That was a pretty testing day. Very slippy, lots of traffic and varying abilities

Managed to grab a few pics on my down time

Good day out, but very slippery. A few of the old cars obviously have very small mirrors, but the weather was pretty bad, so understand it to some extent!!

Cup tyres (Dunlop sport maxx race) made life hard work - 100mph 4th gear wheelspin anyone?! No grip anywhere really, but I was doing a few cheeky slides instead of trying to be neat in certain places...

First time out in the car and we both agreed that those conditions weren't the best for a first try.

Sad to see the yellow 458 sat in the garage next door all day with ECU issues.

Good to meet you briefly 355 - I was the guy that sad hello to you and Adriano.

Couple of laps here from me... Was pretty wet and greasy but still enjoyable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5tuzq3AgjQ&fe...

Yes, I need spot metering enabled on the GoPro..

As some of you have noticed, was only out for the first couple of hours before an ECU fault had us scratching heads for the rest of the day. Subsequently traced to a loose fuse!!
