Yes I span, but not on the first corner, it was the 3rd corner, it was slippery as ****. They just seemed completely unprepared for recovering road cars out the gravel, it only went in about 6 feet. The little damage to the front lip caused by sinking into the gravel (it was only a temporary repair to a previous crack anyway) was completed by the muppet getting it on and off the flat bed ("oh that's just the gravel you can hear").

Went much better with the track tyres in the wet, the tarmac was really very poor for a "race" circuit, probably very long lasting though.

I only sayw 2 other Subaru's out on track on saturday, so well done to them for getting through the tricky conditions.

Maybe it's only 300hp, but how many 300hp scoobs do you know that do 0-100 in 6 seconds and a 1/4 mile in under 10 and a half?

I can't believe they are still unable to recover vehicles properly and the place has been open a few years now.

At Rockingham a few years ago I watched the tow truck rip the bumper off a Ferrari that had gone into the gravel. The driver was really annoyed (but luckily a race team were present and had equipment to help repair it).

Do the recovery people forget these are our pride and joy, or just not care?

Your'e name has come up in conversation before Tiny! Heard a few stories of jaunts to essex and Southend, also seen the pics and vid of my poor Scooby on the rolling road event.

Mine has a cat on once again as the de-cat system doesnt really suit the motorway mileage I clock up (250ish a week for work + my private miles!!). Still pretty noisy but I like it like that!

Parked at the top of the driveway at rockingham on the right (the other side of the fence from the Essex Scoobs).
