You'll have to tell us all about Saturday!

Practice on Sat starts at 9.15 , and the proper timed runs on Sunday start at 10.00. (practice is a little bit less structured than Sunday, and may not have any commentary)

Could you run that by me again in English?!!!!!

We should hopefully get three practice runs on Saturday, I should get my fisrt run around 10.15ish, hopefully another around 12.45ish, and the last around 15.15ish - these times are all dependant on no incidents (me included!!)
Sunday runs start at 10 so I should be running at about 11.00, and then again at 15.00. Lunch break is religiously taken at 13-14.00!

See youse there!

Arrrr - Roger is a bit swift, so is his lad Scott. I must say I like the way Roger drives - he might not always be the quickest, but he is smooth and his car control is top class (sideways and all!! )

Does anyone know if Matty B is still alive?

Good to hear you're still around!!!

Can't say I'm looking forward to the weekend. Been down this evening to take the car, and the paddock is like a giant muddy sponge, and there's only a dozen cars there that have moved about ten feet. What it's going to be like tomorrow afternoon, let alone Sunday evening, I don't care to think about.

For those that haven't been before, the paddock has tarmac isles, but where the cars actually park is grass. The main spectator areas are also grass (which has been freshly cut, so gets everywhere now it is wet!!), with a few stone walkways

Bring some stout shoes peeps, I hope wellies won't be necessary , but you might like to

We will make a decision whether or not to go in the morning depending on the weather.
I dont fancy a muddy field if its peeing down with rain.
I have spoken to t5nyw and wrx rich, and both seem in agreement.

How did it go in practice today then simon.

Hmmmm! Yes!

It started to pee down just as I was going for my first run on slicks, so that one was a waste of time really, and my second was not much better. A failed start, but I stopped before my rear wheels had crossed the line and was alllowed to restart. Very wet and again not brilliant.

I hope tomorrow goes a bit better - from the point of view of the weather it can't be any worse!
