Good to see new and old faces again.

Stu, I am sorry but I am sure I will be able to take you around the track soon :D

Mark, hope the dry track was better for you. :mrgreen:

DJ, did you managed to see H&T? Sorry I did not have a time to talk with you after the track close. May be next time.

Meatball, PM me about what we talked about.

Andy, fast as always. Fully committed with the tyres smoking!

Frank, I will find out more about what you told me.

There were some powerful exgies out there. White 240 Cup and Orange 255 Cup. The white one was going well.

Sat back from that Imp a few times as he had some highly amusing cornering lines! Didn't fancy confidence over taking talent and him collecting the fast charging Atom behind him though :mrgreen:

About to run a poll on the general chat session for feedback to Glenrothes about that red flag, let the single seater out fiasco!

Yes, felt a bit short changed on that paying £60 for two hours and then getting 25% less time. The session finished at 7.40, just as I was getting ready to go out for a few more laps before the supposed end at 8. That along with the 10 minutes earlier was just not acceptable!!

Apart from that it was a good night, great to see so many SE'ers out.

Agreed. It was out of order!!!

Hope they don't do it the next time.

Some vids, all about 50mb

some interesting lines, and boost problems, esp over carlube... could not get power down on the strights as boost was just hitting the warning at 1.3bar and cutting, so lift off, try again

Fee.... taking out a cone, being very brutal on the clutch/gearbox too :shock:

havent timed any of the laps, but dont think any will be sub 60s as there was heaps of cars! 55 or so in a two hour session!
