Well, another storming result for PHers in the dark! After Henry F's victory in the night race at Snetterton 2 weeks ago, Scuffham's gone and notched up a win in this weekend's event. Great stuff, well done Simon and to Chris 'Randy' Randall too. The PS3000 looked awesome; love the colour scheme BTW, shades of a Sid Taylor T70 I thought you did especially well considering your headlights looked like they were powered by a pair of 40w bulbs! Oh, and Randy's Nissan was luurvly.

Another good showing from Henry and Pete in the 911, a pair of 6th place finishes giving 2 third-in-classes, interestingly sandwiched in the first race by TopCats racing's TVR Tuscan and Marcos Mantis. Warren was great entertainment in the Tiv again; long may it continue!

In Britsports, it was good to see Chris Setters back out again in the Jade. Last time I saw you, Chris, was at Brands in about May. Nice to see the car and you back out again; looked like a bit of a trying day from where I was standing. It didn't sound great and looked like it was smoking a bit?

Well done to all PHers involved in the EERC racing this season. I will be watching and supporting the series again next season, how about you?

Pictures to follow.

Some lovely photos on your website. What makes you think the Dockerill / Greensall had engine problems !

Henry

Thanks Henry. I was chatting with Andy Allen after Iain's blow-up and he told me that they had just had the engine rebuilt along with their other GT3 (that wasn't racing at Brands). He also said that the motor definitely wasn't 'buzzed' prior to it letting go. Hmm, a word with the tuner is in order methinks...

Excellent pictures as ever, Trackside. Didn't make it to the race myself. Does anyone know what happened to the Falcon?

As far as I could tell (from Druids) it had a coming together with the Griffin 307 at Paddock Hill Bend in race 1 and then fell foul of the noise Nazis in race 2. Shame 'cos it sounded bloody awesome hammering along the start/finish straight in the evening. I couldn't belive that the Nick Padmore BMW got a rollicking too; I thought it was quite quiet, epecially compared to some of the others (O'Brien/Seldon's M3 for one). Their solution seemed to be to ease off the gas as they went across the line each lap!
