I'm practicing U-Turns all tomorrow for my bike (re-)test so won't be able to make it
Make sure there's plenty of good video footage & pics

All the gear (At least I HOPE it's all of it ) is loaded into the Connect
Thanks to Steve for calling and offering to help, but I've just about managed to squeeze it all in.
I've also ripped the exhaust off the Pug loading it onto the trailer, managed to fix it pretty quickly, with a little assistance from Mick
. Had a re-think about how to load it, and finally got it sorted... only to discover that the van's electric hook-up was mashed. Finally got that sirted (After over an hour of fiddling by a mate) and so we're looking good to go.
Could maybe do with distributing the club stuff between a few vehicles on the way home, as my wheels have had to go on the roof
See you in the morning

Just a thought:
I passed Rallydrive earlier and it has been raining alot! Even if the rain stops now Im gussing the track is going to be a bit wet in a few places - like it was a couple of years ago.
I remember Dave did a good job of shifting most of the big puddle on the 1st bend in the diesel 309, but I know it was mentioned that a yard brush or 2 would have come in handy to 'sweep' away some of the big puddles.
I have chucked my big brush in the boot - might be an idea to bring a couple more if anyone has them? (obviously if it keeps on raining constantly then it will be pointless trying to shift the water in this way!)

. I was very close to putting my F1's on but decided to keep the slicks on instead. I won't have time to get the F1's on now as it's gone 9pm so it won't be much fun for me then

Be at the track between 830-9am.
110 miles is 2 hours running, so you can set out at 630 and have some extra zzzzz's
