For those that like race-Vipers out there, about time I shared a few of this years pics with you! It was Castle Combes 60th year of racing this weekend and we had the pleasure of putting a Viper on the GT grid. Some racing legends came to compete for the weekend, and the partying was almost as good as the racing beer Just to give a big thanks to those Viper Club members, Neil who did the cars stickers, and Colin who made some of the panels, and those that gave support by phone and email etc. I have nearly 900 emails to get to, so I'll reply soon-ish!

With 2 ruptured discs in my spine, I was warned if I go 'off' I was facing life in a wheelchair :-( We had a puncture testing and no where in Bath could seat my tires, so had to run on old used ones that have been standing about some time. Keeps you awake racing with only a little front-end grip! See you next weekend and catch up there.

Let's pray for decent weather. Don't fancy the 350 mile trip down in the rain. Especially not with 'the missus' coming, who dosn't even like a half-hour trip in the car in good weather!!

P.S. Take it easy on your back - I'm paying these days for not letting my first herniated disc recover properly 15 years ago...

Just be careful with your back, You only get one, look after it wink Its always nice to go out and play but sometimes a little self preservation should come first wink
