Me and our Cameron are in Novice mate, 3 door and his Focus RS.

Should be a good year with over 75 cars on the track plus the Group B boys at dinner

That's why all the people who arranged last years are no longer the organisers this year. Seriously mate if you are a real Petrolhead you will enjoy it.
Full track, M Sport display, Group B cars and if all else fails you can wank yourself silly over Vikki Butler Henderson

I'm sitting it out cheers, venues never been the same since it was changed.
Wonder how many trade stands will fly off and damage cars this year...
See how well it does with support of non RS clubs...

Not doing it this year going to the uxbridge show instead fed up with being on gravel as a visiting club. Lets hope you got more trade stands this year because they was very thin on the ground last year.

I'll be going, be my first since 2007.


I'll be in with the novices for my first time driving on track in my E46 M3, hoping I don't hold anyone up.


Really looking forward to it, not looking forward to the cosworth crave returning tho, could end up driving back to scotland one!!

Had a great day lads, delighted to see some fantastic car on and off track.


750 mile round trip for me and my M3 plus 2 sessions on track, was my first track and and can easily say I'm hooked!!

I'll be looking into some more from now on!!
