try Fosse Way to Leicester - much more fun
Or turn off for Lutterworth and goo into Lutterworth Village and get Super ULG turn right opposite the filler station and follow signs to Bruntingthorpe.
Never seen a camera either way

Looks like everyone had a good time, although I'm curious to know what happened to Jon's screen.

Josh[/quote]

out of turn 1 (maybe 120 - 130 ?), bunch of pigeons lift off the track. Bugger. Not much I can do except put my head down... BANG

Anyway, cars in the dealers this morning to get a replacement - no real damage. If it had hit the bodywork then it would have made a serious dent, and if it had come into the car it would have been a very messy story... :0

Least it made my go and find some passenger rides which was entertaining (completely barking guy in an old 911 managed spin us so far into the grass we had to follow our trail to get back out... )

And apologies to the guy in the cossie who got sprayed with pigeon

Good day though. Whens the next one Don ??

Anyone care to post some details of the event? What was great about it, what was lacking etc?

(No doubt Don will read and correct any flagrant distortions of the truth... )
