Does this replace the Club Lotus Donnington bash normally in March ? ( although it looks to be a bigger event )

Hi Leigh,

I've not booked yet. Really just testing the water to see if there was a group heading down for it. It looks like a cracking weekend with lots of track action.

:cheers what a weekend :shock: .......brands was epic, bri and i had a great time….weather was roasting :oops:

bump into colin who was in good spirits with his 340r …..nice to see a familiar face and some new one on Saturday night, for that mater..

Managed to get a free rally with an instructor from the LoT guys…..cheers boys and girls..

Cant get over how cracking the track was, you really just don’t get how much elevation and drop, bump, camber etc the track really is in pics, the run down paddock hill then up to druids was crazy, loads of cars were grounding their splitters big time….…great views all around the track ….the commentary was really good and whole set up was fab……..highlight was seeing the porsche 911cup on fire…the whole rear end was engulfed……..it really was a Kodak moment.

Just a shame that there wasn’t a bigger SE possie to hang out with, maybe next time…
