Hi all,

Anyone else coming?

I'll be there with my old over-boosted Datsun accompanied by another of the same smile

It's with open track £139

Can't wait!!

Cheers,
Sam

Excellentsmile

Do say hello - what's your name?

I'll be in the grey R32 Skyline GTR that's getting lapped by everyone if it's not broken. Otherwise I'll be in the pits trying to blah some passenger rides smile

Speaking of which it'd be good to get a ride in the Boxter - they're brilliant on track!

Cheers,
Sam

Blue Skoda? Cryptic....

Is this an 'organiser' on track thing or some sleeper with a Judd V8 amidships?

Bought my crash hat today (had to retire old faithful when the lining fell apart) so all set I think.

Roll on Tuesday :-)

Absolutely!

Weather looking good, fingers crossed it'll stay that way.

Considering getting a gopro and suction mount.. Wills sucker it to the outside of the car and use as a flame cam. Sad I know!

Are suction mounts ok? I have many for my GoPro but I thought they weren't allowed? I also have one of those massive Hague ones but have yet to use it, just can't bring myself to sucker it to the boot or bonnet! :-)

Never seen such a busy briefing - 130 drivers!!

Still enjoyed it though immensely!

Great to meet you Sam and sorry I didn't get a chance for a proper chat - next timesmile

So apparently auction mounts aren't fine after all... Typically consistent Msv management ... Msv staff were ace though, if only the brands lot were the same...

Lots of footage to look through, think my flame cam got some good footagesmile

Good to meet you too Sam :-) I think we were both too busy enjoying the track to talk. The old Datsun ( ;-) ) looked mighty on track I have to say, blew past me several times, saw the flames too!

Was a good day, weather was lovely, didn't bin it or break anything serious (I might have melted my brake pad sensors!) and had a fair go, can't be bad.

All in all, a success.
