Have a great time, and be warned they are addictive, be prepared to become permanently poor funding this addiction.

You'll enjoy it for sure.MSE run very good days, and Hullavington isnt too bad a layout, 2 longish straights and then a twisty back section.Fair on rubber to.

They are quite tight on noise tho........

Can get very windy down there, so take plenty of jumpers even if it looks sunny.

Have fun.

Bit wet wasn't it! Practically no afternoon running, one session then they closed. I gave up about 3, and by the time I got home it has brightened up and I could hear the track was open again...still too wet for a caterham though....shame.

Bring on the next one!

Yep it was soaking!
After running to get more fuel (TomTom didn't find the closest Shell!) we managed to get quite a few afternoon sessions up until 5pm.

They shortened the straights after the downpour - didn't notice until I got there a bit too quickly!
A good day though, would definately go again.

Never seen it quite as wet as that! The long rignt hander on the back section was pretty interesting - negative camber + wet + some ham-footedness = big spin. All a learning curve though!

Anyone booked for Keevil on Monday 9th?
