I would stay local if I were you! I am.

Most the schools break up tomorrow so a lot of people will be starting there hols.
The roads will be a nightmare

Duxford is undergoing some serious development at the moment with the big hanger being extended.

Well if you fancy a good long run out there are Caterhams at Oulton on Saturday, all starting at a sensible 12pm ish.

Don't forget to go to Brands next weekend though, that's looking like a top weekender.

no, those are at Brands this weekend, the following weekend is the MotoringScrews 50th, but just having looked at the race card I think you might want to give it a swerve, it's not all i thought it might be.

having said that this w/e is the only chance, I think, of seeing the Caterham Masters and the Eurocup in the UK this year. The day looks like this:-


LUNCH
12.45 Racing starts
Race 1 Autosport Caterham Eurocup
Race 2 Lodge Sports Porsche 924 Championship
Race 3 Cosworth Caterham Masters
Race 4 D&DMC Northern Sports & Saloon C’ship (Classes B,C,D)
Race 5 Autosport Caterham Eurocup
Race 6 750MC Sports Racing & GT Challenge
Race 7 Cosworth Caterham Masters
Race 8 D&DMC Northern Sports & Saloon C’ship (Classes A,E,F) with Sports Car v Saloon Challenge

There's always the MotoGP at Donington. Not sure if it's a sell-out, but if it isn't I'm going to wander up there on Sunday I think as I've never been.

Hmm, just checked ticket prices - £54 on the day (would've been £37 in advance). Perhaps not...
