Looking forward to it. It's like a crazy trackday. Everything from historic saloons to Radicals. Most teams fortunately don't take it too seriously. 9/10th's is the order of the day, along with eyes in the back of your head. Anyone fancy coming along to watch?

I am, for reasons not further detailed, staying in your country during a big part of the Saterday, so that's a good reaoson for me to come to the track. It sounds to me like great fun. I will try to come and introduce myself. I guess you are participating too?

Jack - it would be great to meet up with you. You will be able to get an entry ticket at the gate on the day. Should not be too expensive. As noted by Stephen our team is in pit garage 5C. The "race" starts at 11:00 and runs until 17:00. My car is the dark blue Eleven - probably the only Eleven there, so not hard to spot. I will be wearing a light blue race suit. Anyone in our garage will point me out. But they won't recognise Eric Tharg as it is just my internet name! Ask for Charles Best.
I'm sure you will enjoy it. Hope to see you there.

Damn, another season and I haven't been to watch. Where is the year going???????

Even the kids have said that this year seems to have gone quickly.

How did it go?

No problem. With a team of 6 there's no shortage of help if needed!

hi guys,

I wish you loads of fun!

I also wish I could have been there but due to a more-or-less unexpected funeral tomorrow I had to cancel my trip to the UK for this week.

This Birkett sounds great, I'll keep it in mind for 2013.

Rgds.,
Jack
