Are they out yet?

It's been bone dry and sunny down here in Somerset. Had been thinking of going with my brother Sketch as now he's on with getting his RST running today would have been good watching the cars run.

Any times then folks?

There would have to be a big change to go from a 10.4 to a high 9!!
Fucking quick in an escos anyway..on race gas and the spoiler removed i reckon a 10.1 should be possible and that would be awesome!!
