Graham Wood is doing it in the HSR Chevette so I may end up spannering. Doubt I'll do it myself as the car's not really suited to tarmac. It tends to wave front wheels in the air a bit too much.

This is looking promising as I'm working over Xmas/New Years so I'll be in the area. Never been to Croft before so it'll be another circuit to tick off the list and what finer location to finish off the turkey & mince-pies.

Doing fine thanks Blot.

I dare say 90% of our usual crew will be there, all the hardy Northerners at least smile

Oh yes, and I'll also have a nice hip flask which I picked up in Vegas in case anyone requires their coffee to be 'Irish'.

You jammy sod, oh I can only dream of such a ride biggrin

My money`s on young Bogie for the win and on Procter for the entertainment.

biggrinbiggrin I've written a nice letter to Santa after that run out smile

Think the 6R4 of John Stone may have a shout too, should be a really good event, just hope the ice goes away.

Forecast for Saturday is for rain and snow up in the north east. This should make the event pretty interesting but the 2hr drive from Sheffield a nightmare.

Will make a decision later on this week (Saturday morning) but it's not looking good.
