Just wanted to say hi and thanks to all the great people i met yesterday! It was a great day with great car's and some fantastic racing all under blue skies!
As a guest of Topcats a big thank you to Warren and the team for taking care of me and my friends also to Paul black and co driver who took the time to talk me through there racing experience's so far! A very nice car you have there guys.
Graham it was good to catch up again and good luck with the 500 hunt [get a Griff but i would say that]
Andy's Sag looked great as always but sorry never got to say Hi, looked like it was running really sweet as well!
Being a lover of all things 80's i really enjoyed some of the support racing with some great bits of kit on track.
Forgive the computer illiteracy and multi posting still not mastered that yet[shame on me]
And the camera's got no zoom so the cars on track are a long way off but better than nowt
Now if only i could reach the peddles smile Oh and did not look 7

Hi Christian, great to catch up with you and Chris as well. The search is widening to Griffs and maybe looking at one on Tuesday.

Your car looks fantastic. The engine sits in there perfectly, the colours look stunning and finish of the car is a tribute to all involved.

My favourte car of the day was the class D Nova racing against the minis and some of the high power turbo charged beasts of the 90's. On a pair of twin 45's webers and driven by a novice, that is good going. Great to be able to walk around the pits and garages as well.

The sun even put in an appearance as well!

The Tuscans are racing at Brands in a weeks time, but I cant get there unfortunately. The is a historic F1 cars there in a months time, supported by the touring cars of the 70's and 80's. Worth a visit.

ps, good luck with your back

Yes that's mine, Mr Black on the side through the blood and the classic reservoir dogs picture on the top with some more blood smile

Good to see you yesterday Christian, just a shame my car has such a bad day, having a car turn in on Clive ruined our race. Just doing my best to get the car home for an hour was the hardest driving I have needed to do so far - on the straights it felt like the car was trying to kill me but at least we got some points.

When was the day you are going to oulton?

Had a good wander round but didn't see ya - saw your car tho !
Wondered why Paul was down the finishing position... now it makes sense - racing a damaged car must be pretty tough for a hour !!!

Andy and Rod did super in their first Britcar race - 3rd in class and 10th overall - car had a minor fuelling issue meaning an unexpected pit stop prob costing 2nd in class but otherwise didn't miss a beat !! Well Done everyone - see ya next week !
