Hello mate.

6.00am at the bp should be fine.
There leaving at 6.00 am so if we take a slow drive again we should join up anwhere along the M11/M25 jct. even if we pull up on the slip.plus aqua is also meeting us along there at that time.

Spec cameras all down that section so its only 40mph so we should catch em this time.

got a spare walkie talkie for yer...

Why were there so few scoobs on track, considering the number of cars there?

Track highlight has to be the drifters : , got some good pics and will post them later ..... Also got some good pics of Mike .

I would have gone on track, but would have been off after 5 minutes ......Noise !!!!! And I couldn't be foofed with changing the back box !!!

The drifters we're the dogs!!
However.... how the F*ck i managed to get out on the track at the same time as them i will never know... Any drifting on my part would be entirely accidental But i still managed to have some fun, blast a few bends even if i did have to keep slowing down for these nutters wanting take bends sideways!

He'll remember that for a long time!

Great day.. thanks to Phil & the SIDC for organising the show area... A very impressive turn out of Scoobs.... adn just a short sprint from the track side, to catch all the action on the bend!
