Oh?

What is the age restriction now? :?

ISTR I had my son Calum when he was about 8yrs old in the pitlane albeit beside me at all times. He's 10 now, 11 later this year.
My daughter is just away to turn 11. Its 16 in the pitlane now - for insurance reasons they said. Unsupervised fair enough, but a bit harsh if you are with an adult. But thats the way it is so hey ho.
I ha Roobs with me again in the pit lane. This time he is 13 months :)

Another good day, glad the rain stayed away.

Who was the naughty person that got a row for dumping gravel over the track several times? :lol:

In case anyone isn't keeping an eye on the TrackScotland or PH sites and wants to see some in-car video, here are a few clips from the day. I've kept the footage to times with other cars on track - I guess there's not much interest in just pounding round an empty track.
http://youtu.be/Sxwz7UuemSM
Just after the warm-up laps and there's Clios, Scoobies, Elises, an Evo, a Mini and a Dax? in this session.

http://youtu.be/ZaD97z5CUps
This clip has a BMW, Ferrari (respect for taking it in track), Caterfield, Elise, RX8…ends with some drama with a Scooby, a marshal and a fire extinguisher.

http://youtu.be/btOyvp4AMqc
An Evo (smoker's cough), Elise and an MX5.

http://youtu.be/YKO8WbQub2I
Clip has a Mini, Fireblade-Caterfield, Evo, Elises, Clios, MX5. Highlight has to be the flaming Skyline from 2:30.

http://youtu.be/twWqoOjM5zc
A longer clip with Evo, 911, Caterfields, Skyline, Elises, Mazda, Clios, Exiges, Scoobies, Caterham and BMW. Startng to spit with rain at the end.

http://youtu.be/4fs_OASWoeA
Last stint of the day up to the chequered flag and relying on Rain-X and not wipers. Rain on now but not making too much difference to the grip on the tarmac, but being a bit more canny on the kerbs. Caterhams (R300 or 400?), Elise, Exige, Clio,

Erm...dunno about that. Tut did pass me and I stayed with him for quite a few laps but I think traffic was holding him up :thumbsup

According to go pro I didn't quite crack the 60sec barrier. Another couple of secs would do it. More right foot required :mrgreen:

Yellow SC = Elise SuperCharged, S2. Not Tut. He was pedalling well as usual but the tidy yellow S2 was catching my eye ;-)
