Camping, hope it does not rain like last year and remember to keep it under the target time with all extra power this year.

Looking forward to seeing the podium pictures

Cheers all

Think we are better shape this year to have a serious crack at the top spot on the podium. Just need our share of lady luck, we know the car is quick enough after the win in Zandfort

Its all about the marginal gains and strategy during the race

And lets hope all that cycling in stupidly hot weather pays off smile

Another win for the 120d this weekend, we led the race for 18 of the 24 hours, finished 28 overall which is no mean feat with 68 cars on the starting grid. It was not the easiest win as someone(me) decided to put the car in the wall during practice on the Friday. I dont think I was the mechanics favourite person as they worked until 4am on Sat

All worth it in the end though, especially as we have raised about 5,500gbp for charity

Some pics from the weekend
