if you knew the answer, why did you put a question mark then?

I'm not... but every year the same questions is asked, and people put on here YES, or NO, which is what they think is the right answer, then people go the show and find that they are allowed to runs slicks, yet people on here say you cant, and then there is another moan, "i wanted to run slicks, and was told i couldn't" blah blah blah

when all they needed to do was ring in advance and ask.

hence, why i asked you if it was a rumor you had been told,

and if you go back and read my reply, i wasn't being a smart arse, i was mearly asking you if the information was FACT or FICTION

i'll help the next person as much as possible, as i did with my first post

maybe read my reply, without taking offence it all makes sense



i'm going to PRAY it rain now, with all these big powerful cars, so it give me half a chance of catching you all

I'm probably going to be on track in my new Turbo Clio, sadly havent got round to sending the turbo off for new seals yet though, so might be a bit of a smokescreen behind me going into corners, so I should be easy to spot, lol
Its mainly my mrs driving that day though, I will probably only have one or two sessions, so if you see it being driven by someone with long hair, thats why, lol

Hi mate, They are sessions of 12 laps, you go out and do your laps then join the back of the queue so its sort of sessions but not

Thanks, Joe

As Joe says, its basically sessioned but if you are paid up you can join as many sessions as you want.
