Hey Kev, sounds like you'll be out then

MSA have it as

0825 sign on, followed by Scrute 0830-0900
Q 10-1020
R1 1305-1325
R2 1655-1715

which is a bit more "normal".
Bet they still won't let us into the Paddock until late on Sat...AND there#ll be no power points!

Got my list from the fun cup series who still email me with timetables for all their races ( i dont know if its the final one).
So the paddock will be open on saturday for the other series if anybody wants to get there early. I wont be going untill late sat evening as if i see some of the fun cup muppets i will lose it and get my licience taken away. ( dont let any of them near your cars if your testing they all have far more ambition than talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I used to get my car hit every time i raced with those idiots most of which cannot judge braking distances at all let alone corner speeds and proper lines through them !!!.

I spoke to Brands this morning about setting up for the weekend if we want to test on the Friday.

If you want to test and not have to shift all your gear then they are happy for us to set up in the lower half of the outer paddock on the Friday and either stay there all weekend or transfer into the garages on Saturday after 6. I may do that as it makes a weekend out of it, it would be good to test Friday, watch a few races and have a couple of beers on Saturday then be ready for the off first thing on Sunday.

Saves setting everything up then shifting it all again.

[Obiwonkeyblokey]

BTW - Is anyone else planning on testing on the Friday?

[TVRleigh_BBWR]

I've just booked, only Am and all day places left.
And may stay over the whole weekend, or at least leave the truck there, may pop home in the car.

[itsallyellow]

I'm testing Owen.

Although being only 5 minutes from the track helps!

BBQ round mine Saturday night everyone??

[NTEL]

I'm there testing all day on Friday. Depends on the weather if we decamp and move to the pit garages on Saturday night. If its fine we will probably stay where we are. We'll be getting there on Thursday evening. Anyone else there Thursday night?

[TVR_owner]

All being well should be there Thursday evening.

Let me know if you want an early call Friday...

[kg55]

Spent my testing budget already!!!!! fibreglass, paint, wishbones, dampers, wheels. Hopefully i can finally get to start a race this season.

[TVRleigh_BBWR]

just got the testing time table, and looks like we are going out with the fun-cup, that will be fun (NOT)
