Are you driving or watching ??

I might have taken a trip if I'd realised it was on (been too busy recently to keep track of all the track days/nights!!).

Thinking about Friday night though...

Just watching i'm afraid..i'd be in the tyres at the hairpin after one lap with the discs and pads that are on mine.

My friend Caroline is taking her CTR up...may try and convince her though !

Silver wedding anniversary today, so no chance. Working on getting to Fridays, but just had a double header at Boyndie on Sat and Sun in the Scottish Sprint Championships, so not too hopefull.

What is it with these women, that thing that we just do these things for enjoyment?

Not long back from KH myself

Was another excellent Top Marques night - weather was even good, which is pretty unique for KH Good selection of cars on track - that red ECos was...er...entertaining... as was the Noble GTO Also full marks for the guy who took the SL500 on track, along with the nice looking M5 - which I overtook on the twisties (ScoobyNet TM) on the way up to KH and then ended up behind on the way back down again

Tons of Evos on track, but a distinct lack of Scoobs unfortunately

Can't understand why people pay to watch at Hot Hatch days and avoid HM evenings although quite happy for them to remain a bit more exclusive - means I can hear the racing without the rustle of shell suits

Yep, was a good night.

Although on the road through, i cpmpletely missed the obvious "ramp" sign...and smacked my wheel of it. Now i've got a knackered wheel.

My own fault though.

Plenty scoobs in the carpark, but didn't know anyone.

No idea what power it had.

Hard to say, one minute he was driving quick, good lines through the corners, then next he was chucking it about.

Good to watch though.

Kev,

Pretty much the same routine as Hot Hatch days, except there's nowhere near as many cars, and it's usually always an open session, so no queueing to get on.

There's more info on the KH website.

Yeah, but it happened on the way through to KH.

Didn't see Dougster ? Was he in his Wagon ?
