Did the race in 2009, totaly crazy event start to finish, scrutineering is an old sports stadium, the cars then get driven into the town centre for a drag race in the shopping street and as for the circuit......the hard shoulder is the pitlane, you use the regular motorway service station and about halfway through the race the tarmac starts breaking up and all the apexes dissapear!!!!

Did it in this year, lots of fun and great atmosphere. Conditions were difficult with heavy showers throughout the weekend and during last four hours of the race, which turned temporary paddock area into mudhole.

Some pics about our team efforts, which ended with 9'th overall and 2'nd in 3 l. class.

Giles you probably will recognise the car, if you were in 130i.

Just watched the re-run on motors tv, absolutely hilarious ,the snoras spyker did the latter half of the race in 3rd gear only coasting round steadily,the ferrari f430 with its broken rear valance removed, revealing the gearbox dragging on the tarmac, various BMWs crashing into the armco, re-fueling involved utilising the motorway service station pumps ,the dodge viper being towed off the grass verge with no safety car on a live circuit,with all the other cars racing by. Can't wait for next years race. biggrin
