I'll be there Jay - few old school faces from Blackpool making the journey as well i believe!

Really looking forward to this - been as a spectator for 3 years then was working in the pits last year - massively took the edge off!

Stav can remember why...

40mins sleep the night before after mending the car after an 80mph off into a wall and driving down from Knockhill...

Yeah, that didnt look much fun

Tho 40mins sleep is usually good going for me pre-TOTB too, but thats usualy as still blowing the doors off till whatever time

Just how far down is TOTB then? All these folk saying they are heading down ect.

I thought it was about 3 hours south from Glasgow. Is Warrington not near Alton Towers? I was there last week and it took us just over 5 hours each way.. Is it further than that?

Yep, I'm going UP!

Our Skyline hasn't been driven in about a year and needed lots of work. Collecting it from Reyland tomorrow and test driving properly on Sunday in the competition!

Reminds me of the first ever test drive the Sierra got all those years ago: on the way to Dover and then to the Ring!
