latest on the knockhill website

"Skid Markz changes his colour for testing for Sunday 31st May
Mystery driver Skid Markz can change colour!! Seen recently out and about in Edinburgh with his / her son, Skid came to Knockhill late yesterday evening, when no one was about, to get in some early practice. No one knows whether Skid has raced at Knockhill before, but on his first flying lap, a 63 second lap time was recorded.

The secret to the lap time was a lap on the Knockhill dumper truck which obviously gave him a unique racing line, which proved immediately quick. No one knows whether he/she will therefore need to test on Saturday 30th otherwise the first sighting may be during qualifying on Sunday morning.

With Skid seen wearing both red and black occasionally, eager eyed Mini racers will need to keep an eye out for all different coloured versions on Sunday….. he could be wearing red, black or maybe white overalls…….. "

no idea


Bloody hot day! the evo was still on the rolling road a 12:45 getting set up wasnt even enough time to put the stickers back on after the time attack.
Car also had the standard rs box but didnt seem to like it ,was 10mph down on the straight! tyre pressures were hard to set to on the saturday i set the slicks to 24psi all round before a test session and coming back in after a few laps the nsf was at 38 nsr was 36 and both os tyres were at 30.
Alex managed 11th in the first race beating phil duncan by .040 ( biggrin ) and with one of the tyres flat spotted so much it was through to the metal and didnt finish the second race as he got pushed off at the restart and then thought he was flagged in.
in the first race andy gallacher managed to go round the hairpin on the last lap totally sideways which was great to see.

I am not Skid, dunno who "he" was though, if it was Gordon, Allan or Robin I'd expect them to be higher than midfield. Unless it was Sandy or Ian?
