I've done Croft a few times now - great fun - Very tricky technical part just before the main straight and a huge long quick section which is great fun - fair amount of run off room if you get it wrong around MOST of the track

I've got lots of Elise / Cateringvan photos from 2006 - 1st March i think of East Fortune track day.

It was a freezing cold day, but dry.


if anyone was there, let me know what car you had & i'll see if i have got your photo.

I remember there was a TVR that smashed into the tyre wall......
