Just been watching an epic drive by Danny Winstanley at Brands in the Caterham R300 - it was on the box this morning.
Started plum last on the grid due to problems in race 1, overtook every lap to finish up second. Just goes to show what a difference the driver makes in identical cars.....

Thanks for the links. I have watched race one so far - what broke the engine?
Looks like huge fun. Is it very different from racing the TVR?
The one make format really appeals to me, as you are measuring your driving skill against your fellow racers.

The speeds are fairly similar to my TVR on a track day I guess - I am due a Brands day this summer, so will check. I was up to 120 mph at Cadwell Park last week, and cornering close to 100 mph in places. I just don't have other cars showing quite so much determination to eat my mudguards!
