Any cars are welcome.

Of course Scot. There will be 11 to 12 cars there (10 to 16:30). I was planning to attend in the SLR but since it has died again, I will take the CR.

This event was organised on behalf of the Borders 7 club. But the next one will be open to everyone.

Do you prefer July, August or September?

I already really want one! I have 2nd car now so I don't need anything too practical! Only thing that is holding me back is I love my Elise and do not know if I could bare selling it on! Sensible thing to do would be to hold off a couple of years and go for one after we get a house but I am not sensible! Just have to weigh everything up I guess!

My son Cameron was taking photos today - he is hoping to study photography at college next year, so is putting together a portfolio - this was his first time trying to photograph cars on track. Most of you were running with number plates, and I think it is bad form to post images with number plates without permission, so I've only posted a couple of photos in which the licence numbers aren't legible. However, he has similar shots of many of those who were on track between about 12:30 and 2pm. If you'd like to know if he has a good photo of you, let him know your licence number or describe your car to either cammy12@hotmail.co.uk or c.j.ellam@btinternet.com. Alternatively, let me know that you are comfortable for your number plate to be displayed and I'll upload more images here.

Rob - I saw the two of you walking round taking pics, but didn't realise you were SE-ers! I have absolutely no problem with my car's number plate appearing in pics online/on-forum. Look forward to seeing if he got any of the Tomato (red Superlight). There were 2 red Caterhams today so to differentiate, mine has red rear wings.

Rob, nice photos.

The track was lots of fun.

I had a large screw in the OS rear tyre so the session was stopped early..... The screw came out on the way home so I had to wait for the AA for over 90 mins. Not been a good week.....
