I've not had any official info on this yet, has anyone else? What with work and house purchase I'm still 50/50 if I'll be able to make it but in case I can it would be good to know what to do and when....

How many Cerberas will there be?

Cheers

Won't make this.

Not got the car fixed. If I get the car finished early enough I may travel up in the morning.

I'm afraid I'll be a no show too, only just leaving work now, and with a two and a half hour journey from SE London to get to signing on in time it would mean little sleep. I'd rather for everyones safely I wasn't driving my Cerb on 3hrs sleep...another time....

If I had a pound for every track day I'd not made it to I'd have enough money for a track day, which I then wouldn't make it to....

Enjoy the day, looks like the weather will be good too.

Cheers

You can sign on at anytime during the day.

I've turned up just before lunch on some days.

I'm out anyway. Gout flated up overnight so even if I did finish the car I couldn't drive.

Wow what a day, big thanks to Nev and Richard for organising and letting a lowly BMW M3 join in thumbup

Apologies to anyone I held up, especially after lunch where I’d developed a knocking noise and limped back to the paddock, transpires my NSR wheel was loose eek (yes I did check them before leaving home) No wonder turn one felt weird and loose before we had the lunch break, don’t want to even think about the consequences if it got free for either myself or someone trying to dodge a 19” alloy at speed yikes

Anyway great day thank you all

Great fun today, thanks to all involved in the organisation. Only one spin and one red flag after losing my splitter, just needed a black flag and I would have had the set.

Yes, it was good day.

Thanks to the organisers.

More importantly, really nice to catch up with friends at a good venue which sadly will be lost.

Unfortunately I couldn’t bring my Chim today which was just as well for you cerb guys wink.
I left the high speed jinx to QBee who was flying.

Really happy with my 900 quid Skoda which was, cough, quicker than some..........
