I kept going until quite late in the day last year. From memory the day was dry-wet-dry and was great fun. Miss Bert and I were sharing and got quite a few laps in. Called it a day in the end as I was getting too lairy! I'd binned my race car there the year before and didn't want the same for my 911!
Let me know if you want a session or two driving I know we didn't manage it last year but there's more chance this time.

I have someone booked in for the morning and space for someone else all morning but if not booked for that beforehand I could do the odd session, otherwise anytime in the afternoon is ok.

Thanks for the offer Marcus, but I've had to cancel as neither 911 is on the road at the moment sadly frown

I was never even contemplating cancelling just because of weather. I'm a st driver. You can drive st in the wet and cold just as easily as in the dry.

No such thing as the wrong weather, just the wrong clothes. And tyres. And balls.

Probably won't start in earnest until after 9:30am earliest, what with sign-on, scrutineering and sighting laps.

There's normally plenty of parking spaces for spectators in the paddock and quite a lot of Porsches turn up to watch, which is great to see. Just don't use the spaces in the rows near the pit garages like some of the spectators did last year, as they're generally in use/more useful for the cars on track.
