Hi Gav and Ian

Definitely got a feeling of déjà vu wink

I'll be there in my caterham. Last time I looked the forecast was for it to be dry. A lot can happen in a week though.

Will be there in the dark purple E36 M3.

Any suggestions what's the best way to get 2 tyres changed at the end of the day - any local garage or mobile fitting van?

Hi Chris,

I am going tomorrow (cant wait)

I live in the area and there is a guy I use for tyres, his details are,

Paul Stapley Tyers 01474 700400 he has about 3 or 4 mobile vans on the road, dont know if this will help but its the best i can think of in this area.

See you tomorrow

Scott

Thanks Scott. Will give it a try, otherwise there is a local garage that can do it. What car will you be in?

I was there today in my Jagaur XKR
A bit damp to start with but dried out during the day

One chap lost it down the pit straight just in front of me.
You'll see the marks down the pit wall.

well that was a pretty good day, sunshine in the morning
mixed with a little sleet/snow in the afternoon.

Not too many red flags either !

Did everyone enjoy it ?

First thing this morning it was a litte wet but the line soon dried out and
it turned into a nice day.

About 3.30pm there was some sleet and hail which made things interesting.

There weren't any major incidents, a couple of trips into the gravel but that
was about it.

Yes, really good day. Plenty of track time available even forgetting that it was booked to capacity.
