Anybody else hear it!!!!!!!
Jeeeeeeez it was shifting!!!!!!!

I woke up desparately trying to remember what day it was as there was obviously a Judd V10 on a warm up lap. Having realised it was 6AM and after listening for a bit it was clearly a single bike really going for it!

I managed to hear it the WHOLE way around the circuit!!!!!!!!

The Tivs got their fun as well.
Surrey departed en-mass at 6:30AM and Bristol soon followed them out. We had a lovely quick lap of the circuit followed by a divert up past Houx where the majority of Tivs were camped.
I suspect they might have heard us

Stupidly early - Yes.
Worth doing - Not Half Mate!

Yeah I heard it. He was caning it though the first four gears past Houx Annexe so he must have been doing one hell of a speed.

I take it your fizzy had been breathed on somewhat?

I heard that too and remember laying there thinking the cars had started already.
Then I realised it was very early and the wrong day and so went back to sleep.

I liked the 8:30 alarm call on Saturday morning.
One bonus of sleeping metres from the track!

Ear plugs, that's what you need.

I heard about it when I was woken at 11 by some bint worried about what she was going to wear that day, I ask you no consideration for others.

Apparently this bike had been tw@ting it up and down the road that runs past Houx and Houx Annex, right past the wall I had my tent against.

Like I said ear plugs and a slab of beer does wonders for sleep.

It was indeed a great drive out, early morning, fresh air and the shattered silence of TVRs heading down the track, loverly.
