I was only able to attend the two sprint races - the real fun was on the Saturday where it truly pissed down!

Abbie Eaton got her first GTB class win in the Geoff Steel BMW:



The Gary Duckman/EJM Saker crashed at 140mph at Stowe when a suspension arm failed. Gary exited the car under his own steam - yet another incident where the use of a HANS probably saved a driver's life:



Jim Geddie took the #1 McLaren MP4/12C from lights to pole in Race 1:



Guy Riall lost it at The Loop in Race 2 - and waved goodbye to a GTB podium:



Phil Burgan grabbed two podiums in the United Autosports Audi R8 LMS Ultra.



Next races are at Snetterton on 25/26th July.

Nice pics. Did you get any of the PHer owned (Hollowpockets) Noble that bagged 5th in the last race?
I might have one or two - will have a trawl...

Think you must mean this car: fifth in GTO class in the endurance race on Saturday, fifth overall in the first sprint race on Sunday but it was a DNF (possibly a non-starter with zero laps completed) in Race 2. The wet conditions on Saturday appear to have been a significant leveller.
