Anyone else going on this one (week on Sunday)? Looks to be sold out - I'll be there (red Caterham 7 with black stripes) - hoping for decent weather!

I'll be there too. Hopefully in a Blue Porsche 944 but since that's still with the mechanic... I'll be in something!
Be nice if the weather is like the last couple of weekends but I fear there is talk of rain... It'll pass by Sunday I hope.

Good stuff guys - come and say hello if you see me. I'll be sharing a garage with a mate in a purple S1 Elise. Looking forward to it!

I was there (blue Alfa)! Didn't relaise there was a thread. Great day, weather was spot on, apart from a brief shower and nothing fell off the car.

Really great day, thoroughly enjoyed it. Well-run as usual by Javelin, good standard of driving, nice atmosphere.

Only slight issue was that the alternator on my Caterham packed up on a dark, cold M11 on the way home. Not fun.

I was there in the red Fiat Coupe, put loads of laps in so had a good day!

Decent turnout, and driving standards were pretty good.

It does look more silver, I'll give you that but Alfa insists on calling it blue!

I have the next splitter painted up and ready to go as I have worn holes in the current one, not sure why!

Couple of sound clips here - coming past me on the back straight (if you can hear over my brother's chat) and then as it pulls out of Murray's (or Russell's).

Did anyone capture the Coupe at all? My GoPro was slightly too low on the rollcage, so you cant really see anything!

Excellent, I never get to hear it from the outside so that's a bonus. Got told off about the noise though, have to have it sorted before the first sprint at Blyton next month apparently ...

It is supercharged, and there are no cats either. The primary ones have just been 'removed' and we replaced the secondary ones with a straight through 'pipe'. Sunday finished off the suspension though, new KW's in the post now.

The Max Power fiesta was Matt's, he had a brilliant day, although he did spend a large part of it facing the wrong way and/or on the grass!

Excellent mix of cars on the day, I wondered about that "1.1" silver Fiesta. Was it quick? Does anyone know what was actually in it? Never saw it on track..
