Yeah, really nice day today with the usual assortment of cakes and snacks from Dave. Really quiet, at the end I was out (in the white 7 with black stripes) for 20 minutes and I think I saw maybe three or four cars, it was like I had the track to myself.

The file was huge and I logged out of gmail by mistake and it crashed, my misses said you were one of the best drivers we followed:

This one didnt, but uploading the other one now.

gav you can be seen from about 1.44 onwards.

Camera angle is poor as I normally use a mount but left it in the other car and used this camera.

I lost the back end about 2.46 going on dirty side of the track:

It went really well and looks awesome, me and a mate share a 328 and i love it!!! Have you done any engine mods.

Also any chance that the person that borrowed my Sealey 17 inch wheel socket and never returned it can get in touch with me!!!

My fingers are still bleeding!!!

Had a great day, awesome weather, some pretty good driving and some lovely donuts!

Pictures are up, although I think there maybe some more added as it's not been made official just yet.
