Had a excellant day at croft asI do every year and think the lads do a cracking job putting on a good show

only thing i didnt like was the long delays between session which i know was beyond the control of the RSOC but hopefully next year will be better if they get the full noise day.

And 1 more thing i was told the 0-60 was a sponsered event with a prize for 1st place so i think it was a little unfair that last car of the day AG came on and done a 3.4 in a fully 1 off track car, not really fair for joe public IMO

I asked Dave but did'nt want to pester him. I had to go on and on last year to get out on track. Would have been nice though and made it worth while.
