Default MICHELIN TYRE TESTER FOR A DAY - free place

The PH/Michelin/Porsche 'tyre testing experience' is being run in the morning at Silverstone. I have won 2 places and have one place available. A friend who was going to come along has had to cancel.

So, is anyone up for this? You'll have to be at Silverstone for 9AM. Complimentary breakfast and lunch in the Porsche restaurant. Leave after lunch

We can meet at Silverstone, or at my address (DY9 0JL) at 07-30 and both go from there

You MUST also be over 21 to drive. If you have had a previous DRIVING BAN this would exclude you from being able to drive.

Is this tomorrow morning (23rd)? I'd love to do it but tomorrow is the only day I can't as i have to be at Bruntingthorpe at 10.30 for a Jap Performance shoot.

I'll take it if it's still available, and it's on the 23rd.

In the end I decided to coin flip. This was the fairest method I could think of

You would say that - I think it should be last come first served

Anyhoo, his ticket, his call.

I did say that I was happy if it was first come first served but it was decided on a flip of the coin and if he changes his mind I am happy to step aside.
