A mate went to the Boss race at donnington a couple of weeks ago said it was awesome...

Just got to convince the other half to get up at 7am so we can get there for the start....

I went to this event last year, all I can say is that it better be better than last year!

The only, and I do mean only, interesting racing was in the EuroBoss, and part of that was because I know one of the drivers!

I wouldn't pay to attend this event again. Now the Ferrari festival... that was a different kettle of fish, 6 wheeled Tyrol, twin Chassis Lotus... WOW!!

Well, I'll let you know how it goes!

It had huge potential last year.

But I sincerely hope that it's a good event. I've seen several air displays at Brands including a Harrier that had people in the pits hanging onto their awnings as the downdraft caught hold and tried to turn them into kites.

Have a great day m8.

We're going to catch the Formula Ford stuff. Corporate day. We'll be in the Blue Tuscan (with any luck parked in the paddock), if the weather holds!

Are the morning sessions practice/qualifying only?
