It was wet, windy, overcast and dull. Except for the racing which was was brilliant, very close and competitive with more than it's fair share of off's. Considering the weather was so bad it’s was a very enjoyable day.

A couple of pics:















Cheers

I was there driving one of the MR2s. Fantastic weekend, but unbelievably slippery! Glad it dried up for the final few races though.

Ah you're the guy who did the brilliant slow mos at Brands someone posted on another forum as well. Thumbs up to you sir thumbup

The start was pretty chaotic, and a few close calls in Camp corner as well when cars swapped ends. Just glad to have the car back without any dents!

Did you see anything of the fireball in the second MR2 race when Matt Smith's engine let go?

Pleased you got your car back dent free, the engine failure was a big one yikes I would not have wanted to be too close to that when it went, cant believe I missed it. Hope Matts ok although the repair cost might hurt a little.

Cheers
