Not all of them :P :P


Glad everyone had a good day, as has been said the way the weather has been I think we got off lightly, the day before had more rain and as Tut posted it got a lot worse the day after.

See a few of you on FF6.

I echo that Mark. Not one red flag all day, and I never saw a yellow.

Very well organised, a great days track enjoyment, four tanks of fuel, and a lot more dry than wet. Track etiquette was excellent, you notice it even more in a S/C Honda.

However I did get lonely there towards the end, even finished 10 mins early as there was nobody on track.

The track was very quiet at times, think a few headed for home at lunchtime thinking the rain was there for te rest of the day.

Cadwell can certainly catch you out in the wet. Bad luck Phil! :(

15 days tomorrow since this, so false alarm.

"We then had a fast run back to Edinburgh, thankful to have lights to follow as it got darker and wetter. I dont really like driving in those conditions at night, poor lights and too much concentation, so after Andy split, I got hit by the Gatso under the bridge on the bypass in the 50 zone.

Was concentrating on where I turned off, torrential rain, double flash, checked the tacho, 3000 rpm in 6th which is 57tuts. Must have been right on the lower limit, which really would be a bummer."

Whats the deal with the forward facing ones that use a single white line on the road as used on the road to Silverstone?

They are designed to take a pic of your face so there can be no doubt who was driving! :(
