Gordon

It would be a shame to give it up now, just when you've shown that you have some real ability. I'm getting a new car in a few weeks that should be okay for towing, I don't have a trailer, but if anyone else can help with that, I'd be happy to help out with transport some weekends, I'm sure that most of the fuel could be covered as a w**k cost aswell.

Just shout if need some help when you know what your plans are.

Wait a minute. Where the hell did he come from??? :? :lol: How about you crawl back under your rock again rich boy. Buy a trailor... or even better... just drive the car down south and stop interfering with my plans. :D

Nice banner Neil - I'll make sure in in attendance when they come up to Knockhill (or is it Lotus on (english) track?)

well, seing as the series is being run in conjunction with Motor sport vision, it'd be safe to assume that they'll use the MSV circuits of brands hatch, snetterton, cadwell park and oulton park.

so "coming to a track near you" should have the caveat "providing you don't live north of the border"



thought so.

why so bitter sounding?? LoT is run by Paul Golding in his free time, not for profit. 99% of its members are based in england. 99% of the racers will be english. The majority of race series in this country are in england.

If SE was to start its own race series, do you honestly think it would be any different????

Also, LoT run a hell of a lot of trackdays abroad, just because there not in scotland, doesnt mean they dont travel.
