I am tempted Tim. Never been there. Need a gearbox rebuild to make it worthwhile.

I entered that race a few years ago with Darren I think, as well. lucky for Darren he only lives a few hours away . I rushed to get car ready and watching the weather forecast on the run up to it every day I decided it was too far to go and thought I wouldn't bother as the weather looked really wet, not a lot of money lost. I called Darren a couple of days before to say I wasn't coming and to wish him luck. He called me the day before the race when I would have been nearing the end of a 9hr drive and he told me it had been cancelled because it was snowing heavens hard and he was sort of lucky as he had only just got passed chester before he was told.

hehe I remember that one Perry ,John Seery was racing too - we got as far as Norh Wales when BRSCC rang to confirm it had been cancelled - so we stopped for a brew in Prestatyn and came home.

Every year around this time, i think about throwing an entry in - although my sensible head tells me to get a couple of Tarporley based , track or test days instead.

Hi Guys.

As much as I like Anglesey after my first visit I find this whole conversation a bit strange. My calendar show that the 1st December is a Monday!!!

That is not to say I am interested. I have battened down the hatches for the winter and am busy installing more insulation in the loft in North Devon.

If body and soul remain reasonably intact there is a good chance I will be out next year but I think Anglesey in December would be pushing my luck even if the car were raceworthy.

Hui.

Hugh.

It's actually 30 November (Sunday) - but a long way from Devon, admittedly

for the older ones of you out there, does the film 'Quadrophenia' spring to mind where he goes back during Winter after having a fantastic Summer there!tim
