:withstupid

but then i would be with my Combe results last year :mrgreen:

Great effort mate - think the years of track days at KH really pay of when it rains, and the southern softies can't handle it :thumbsup

Look forward to hearing the de brief over a pint soon

Cheers everyone. :D

I agree that wet Knockhill days definately make a difference. :thumbsup

Sorry for being a pedant but my qualifying time was a 1.21.074. Half a second is half a second. :lol: :lol: Still not as quick as your 1.20 Neil. 8)

Don't think I could have improved on that unless I lucked a really clean lap. Was cutting the corners as much as possible to get that time. :shock:

Here's the Final results, the elise was slightly quicker than me in the dry. Think it's got the Audi TT engine connversion. :D

It's ok you aren't missing anything its utter gash so far.

10mins in and yet to show any footage of track action, just a crap soundtrack, sh*t production and a truly awful presenter.

Yeah I was gutted they didnt show any of your driving or I could have told you how crap you were too :P

Joking aside it would have been nice if they had spoken to or featured a bit more of the club racers.
