It was also my first Scottish Elises meet :oops: :oops: :oops:

They have put kerbs on the corner I had a little incident on so wouldn't like to come off there now. I was very lucky as there were no marks whatsoever on my car despite it ending up quite a distance from the road. Walking to a meet and asking if folk could help push your car back to the road is not the best way to start.

If you like the Dukes Pass I run a rally over it every year called the Dukes of Hazard Rally, It's usually in November but I'm not organised this year so will be in the Spring hopefully if I get any weekends off work. 20 cars last few years and no competition licences required.
