Have put in an entry for Wednesday using my son's Clio 1.2
and he is also doing it with me by joining the club on Wednesday as well

It is the first motorsport event he has ever done so will be interesting to see
just how good he is up against his highly experienced (read Old Man) Dad

Any wagers? 18yo vs 50yo

Anyone will be welcome to come and see what it is about
and any PH support for me will be appreciated as well

Cheers

Good luck, would like to see this but won't be able to get over in time after work

Should be on for a couple of hours - usually until it gets dark!!!!

In case anyone interested then experience won the day (well the evening)

Seriously I was surprised how well he did for a first time (and an exuberaant 18 YO)
and he actually had a faster time than me on one test on the first round

But once I got used to his car I then clawed it back and ended having a faster time on every test overall

He enjoyed it so much he wants to do others and also bring his friends to race against
(who I am sure he will beat without much trouble)
