A 1:52 round Oulton isn't half bad - shame about that little dip at the exit of Druids that unsettled the car in the race. Still, look on the bright side, could have been like this lot...!

Rob, there were quite a few places where it went light and I had to feather the throttle. I need to work out what changes to make for that.

I saw that video a while back; the luckiest marchall ever I reckon. Oh and much, much more expensive than my mistake, bits of CF everywhere.

Looks like the car will be fixed for Castle Combe for the bank holiday Monday smile

Dear All,
Motorsport is dangerous. It may look funny in the wet but.....

The week before Richard was there I think.
Be safe

Umm, that Ginetta crash... it makes you tighten your harness straps that just little bit more. It was very cold at that meeting and I think they even had snow during the day.

I wondered if the driver had assistance from behind or just lost grip. Either way he was lucky to get out with nothing more than minor burns, mainly to his hands. It prompted me to get gloves that better cover the gap between glove and sleeve.
