Default Weather for the Fair?

This is one of those threads you wish you never have to post up, but then again it won't stop the inevitable. Crap weather promised on Sunday, but still looking forward to my 210 mile trip down to Silverstone

if its wet the only downside is the 0-60 will be having slow times lol

if the track is wet then its 4 wheel drift time lol

i was at silvertone last weekend for the classics & it was rosting hot i had to sit in the car with the aircon on for an hour to cool down we found the covered seating at the bottom end of the track on sunday & made the most of it
