Sweet mate - haven't heard from you (or hat 'tinternet) since the weekend, so I was hoping it wasn't an ominous silence.... :lol:

Oh, and Kenwood - the only helmet I furiously polish is my own... how the hell you think I'm so skinny?

Post this in to your browser - possibly best to save it due to the file size - Race 1 from Silverstone.

Race 2 to follow :)

Nice video Andy. Bit of a nightmare being passed by Randy's car before the safety car board was shown, as it looked like you were shaping up for a good battle over the last few laps with the 3 Elises in front.

I notice Randy's car passed you under waved yellows at Woodcote just before the safety board was shown at the start/finish line. Did you not consider retaking your place before the safety car was deployed? I'd have probably risked that and argued with the stewards after the race if they saw it differently.

Suprised the observers did not pick up on this and wave you through while the safety car was out.

I did, the problem was i wasn't 100% sure and when they didn't wave me by, i didn't have an option. I was f***ing raging for the SC laps though, highly frustrated and gutted.

Still its all part of gaining experience - i wasn't sure enough to do anything, and did speak to the clark of the course about what the correct thing to do , but as no marshalls spotted him overtaking under the flag, so I was stuffed. Had i overtaken I was have been up for investigation :(

Was blinding fun till that happened though :)

Great drive mate - love the 2 wheels on grass :shock:

:oops: On the spin by me that class C car was the bain of my weekend just had enough poke to get a gap up to the next corner :(


So was it a wheel on the grass that caused your spin?

Was braking as hard as it would let me to miss Steve W - think i put my outside rear on the grass on turn in - made for good footage.

That Group C car features heavily in my Brands footgae from Race 2. Rapid on the straights, miss Daisy in the bends........
