2013 / Re: 4-6 campsite passes wanted - HA, MB, BN, KN or EXPO

Had an email from just tickets today. All they have left are a few Blue North and Blue South at £63 each. You have to buy 2 gen entry tickets for each campsite ticket at £68 each. They then add a "currency surcharge of 10% on the order, which is nice of them!!

I had an e-mail from Select Motorsport yesterday and they are doing the same. I only need 1 GA and 1 Camping Ticket, I will be speaking to 1st tickets tomorrow.

I have to say Wales Rally GB is joke, I think the blame for this one can be laid at the door of the dear old FIA. The problems is that the team's had to tell them what tyres they where going to use back in September and they are not allowed to change them in anyway.

- Another race could be added, TBA at the prize-giving ceremony November 15th
- One of the races may be changed to two separate 500km races on the same weekend

I like the sound of the race in Portugal the track is only 70km from Faro airport and there are loads of cheap flights too.

General Discussion / Re: Embassy Racing shuts

I'm in shock, I can't believe the news. Embassy are (sorry where) my local team as there workshop is only a mile up the road from where I am sat right now. I have meet Jonathan France many times over the last few years and I know that he had big plans for Embassy Racing over the next few years. Hopefully this is just a blip and we will see them back at some point in the future.

And the icing on the cake at todays 1000 KM's at Silverstone , a fly over by XH558 at 2 pm during the race. I couldn't believe my luck. Waited 15 years to see her fly again and now seen her twice in 7 days.

I must admit I was there but I missed XH558. However I was told yesterday that she will be back at Silverstone next weekend to do a flypast just before the start of the Britcar 24 Hours.

I did find out yesterday that there is a bit of a link to Le Mans. One of the major backers of the Vulcan to the Sky Trust is none other than AD Holdings. You may or may not know that AD Holdings is owned by Mike Newton who drives the RML MG.
