Default National day... Big up to:

In no real order....

1) The organisers... a great day, and largely without hitch for me, apart from the 18 bottles of water i drank at £1.50 each (Joke.. i know it wasnt your fault)

2) Porkie... the passenger ride was really impressive, fook does that old girl go now!! I am glad she finally plays your tune

3) Mike R... What a car and driver, very impressive in an all round kind of way, it does more than it says on the tin.

4) Clare... Great ride out with you, shame we got to see the Nova roll live in front of us but hey, it keeps it all real... good lines girl, proud of ya

5) Gary at APT. Incredible ride from what is essentially a standard car with a few mild upgrades... very very impressive car and top lines from the driver too.

6) Everyone who took Nicole out, but she can do her own topic.

And onto the NO BIG UPS....

Only 1.
No big ups to the AM Sport driver who decided to undertake on the grass/gravel at corner 1 and shower Garys £20K Evo with fooking litter by keeping the power on in the gravel.... nice!!

Stu,
Very kind of you to say so . Once I have resolved the water temp issues, will be able to run the normal boost and mix it with the faster cars .

I'm getting slicks for next year . I think 90% of all cars in the experienced session were ex-race cars on slicks or stripped out track cars . I can't believe I got doored by a shonky road-going STi Subaru - well done Rob, your car is well quick .

I had a great day, and was nice to see so many of you again.

Richard Pon was offensive on the track with his Pirouet on the first corner by the stands........!!


I thought he was going through the grand stand wall and out into the field behind.....LOL

A turtle head moment for you sir......

Robs Subaru is VERY fast, he is also a very aware and experienced driver.

Mike your car was very fast as it is! It will be MENTAL on slicks I think alot of your cars speed at the moment comes from your driving ability
