Well it might have been a bit snowy (couple of inches on the road to start our journey) and somewhat freezing, but well worth taking our life in our hands and crossing over t'borders to the west. Had a very nice drive across once we crossed the snowline, cold but dry and sunny makes for a nice crisp throttle and the odd pop and bang smile

Met up immediately with Saj & crew from Lambo Manchester & Guy H ( beer for the passes fella), was a small but select parking area, Bentley, Maser, Veyron, 360CS, Gallardo SL & us smile



Had a good look round the chad 430, tech9 lambo & team modena lambo smile
Don't ever recall seeing so many incidents at one meeting, am normally at the other side of the circuit if there is even a minor spin! A full on days motorsport with every weather condition and every type of racing incident you could think of. Not sure how many lambos will be running monday after today's carnage though

Tech9 (t'other was missing from the race due to an arguement with the arnco in morning practice



Guy H's F430



Team modena before, during (practice) and after the 2nd corner of the race...








Got a stack of vids and pics.

Had a nice chat with Mel C who was there to support her brother, what a lovely person she is angel

After a cracking day we rounded it off by a swift detour through Leeds for a tunnel run.

Epic day, SimonC, good to talk to you, hopefully meet you next time! smile
