Good man.

Really looking forward to this one. Not done Oulton for years, so I'll try & get some laptop revision in beforehand.

See you there.

I'm looking forward to it too. I'll be trying to learn the new race car whilst watching someone else learning my old race car. That will seem really weird!

It'll be a treat being on track with some TVRs again.

I think so but I'm not sure if he will be in the orange missile or not.

Just checking my car over & found a dirty great screw head sticking out of my rear tyre banghead

Luckily it's in the tread centre, & they're new tyres with loads of tread.

My plan is to find a tyre repair place early doors & then head over to Oulton.

I've never used a repaired tyre on track. Any thoughts?? Will it be ok, or is it a big no no?

Simon, sorry I did get chance to have a chat with you today. Had a few problems throughout the day and then ended up packing up early after my poly windscreen inexplicably shattered yikes Came to your pit garage to say hello just before I left only to see you just leaving for a session. Hope you had a better day than me!!!! smile

Apologies Dave, we didn't get to chat in the end. I did pop over a couple of times but I could you were heavily involved so thought I'd catch up later instead.

We had a good day thanks, didn't need to be any warmer though biggrin

Hope to catch you on the next one.

And I spotted this in the parking area with the PH smilie:

Paul, thats my Cerbera you saw. I was there when you came back in the Lotous and then you went out in the Porker.
You missed this Pistonheads smiley, mind you, you may have had other things on your mind smile

Sorry I missed you! Was literally grinning and like a big kid all day in the different cars!

The only reason I went over and met Simon was down to the PH smilie on the Exige!
