Not seen a thread on this - I see it's now full - anyone on here going ? I'll be there in my Atom 300 - will be the first track day of the year after car has been serviced - new upgraded uprights and rear bearings and some tweaks to the geo - really looking forward to getting out on track again and to finding out whether the tweaks make any difference

Hi Ian. I'll be there too. First time out for me in a hell of a long time.

Three of us will be there.

I'm in a modified M3 (Orange/Blk) and a couple of mates in R26R's (white and black). Watch out for the white one, R888 and a quick driver.

Sorry chap - not transferrable - I'm juggling a big fat list with a definite order to it no matter what sort of happy endings you're offering.

Readers: Speedy and I have now spoken on the phone and I ams till no clearer just how far he would go for a place. When it came to Happy Endings he was very, very coy. because he obviously can't breathe through his ears it'll be passenger rides for him...

Interesting day today - good to see the great Dave Edwards again of course (a legend) - pretty slippy for most of the morning and notable for a near locust like protuberance of Caterham - I counted 40 - all in all a good season opener

I lost my Caterham bet. Not a single shunt all day and of the 4 red flags only one was Caterham related. Very, very impressed with that. Thank you Caterham boys (and girl)

The Mission Motorsport soldiers were very pleased. They raised over 500 so thank you to everyone who donated and/or gave rides to the soldiers.

What a splendid day. Thank you very much all my clients. You rocked!

I rediscovered my love for my car yesterday. It's been about 18 months since I had a good blast in it and yesterday was perfect.

Melindi. Thx for your text "on the rear pls" but wasn't sure who it was from and what it was about.

Just the odd traffic jam (black Boxster) and a dodgy Radical driver but other than that it was spot on.

Would have loved a passenger ride in the Lambo towards the end !! Awesome machine. Had a bit of a chat to the owner, remember he had a 599GTO last time. I wonder if being a "collector" is a way to get approval from the wife to buy lots of cars ?

I'm not in your phone? Pah to you.

Just how many random texts do you get telling you it's meant to be on the ass?

Anytime you feel you have lost the love for your car just tell me. I can drool on it in under 5 seconds. Truly the car of the Gods.
