Passenger laps for KH TT

Post by haggis catcher » Tue Jun 15, 2010 2:55 pm

I am looking for a few volunteers to take two RAF Airmen from 111 Squadron. for a few passenger laps this Friday for KH TT weekend. 111 Squadron have twice helped out big style with the VIP RAF Leuchars visit, and i would like to think a few SE members could return back a favour.

Can you help ?

I would think this a bloody honour to take out the guys who put their lives on the line for us. If I was taking part in the TD, I'd be first in line. :thumbsup

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

But it sounds lurvly.. I'm quite taken with the darn thing :D

First impression, not quite as responsive as the SC but just goes like a train through the gears. More than enough for me..
