We all had a good run back and with the exception of a bit of rain on the way out, we had really good weather and a REALLY good time. Looking forwards to next year

We were all quite sensible this year!!!!!

As for the racing the C12 won again followed by a ZR1 thingy and then a Viper thingy and then some more normal looking corvettes.

Followed Brett for numerous miles during the trip (my choice you understand - I could have overtaken him at will) and was very impressed with the sound. For some reason he seems to change gear and rev the car more these days!!!

Superb trip, with some great people - can't wait til next year. Thanks to everyone (even Viper Paul - nice car by the way)

Now that sounds familiar was you just feathering the throttle and playing with him.

The Zr1 thingy that came 2nd was I think the ZR1 Doug Rippie LM car from 94 or 95? I don't think it has the original LM engine in anymore as that was bought by someone in the US.

Yup, looked a bit rough and ready round the edges so it looks like it has been well used since LM.
