Well that was probably one of the best races I've ever been to. The last 40 minutes, watching NcNish reel the Peugeot in was just fantastic.

I'll be there Thurs, Fri & Sat.

I met Steve at my first LMS race at Silverstone many years ago.

RIP

I'll be there

We're in pit garage 9a, so come say hi

Is anyone going to the Britcar 24r race at Silverstone in a few weeks time?

Following on from our successful début in 24hr 2CV racing earlier in the year, for the Britcar race I have two Porsche 968s running in PS1 Class 2 under Team County EMC Motorsport.

The entry list looks quite good at the moment, with some of the usual heavyweights all set to battle it out across most of the classes. If anyone is going to be there, feel free to come say hello. I'll confirm what pit garage allocation we have once I get the final list from the organisers.

Three chapters are proof read now and only have a couple of very slight changes, will mail them back tomorrow.

I quite like the new layout, was a little bit of a shock when I first saw it though!

The Sebring entry list has been released. LMP1 & GT1 are looking a little sparse

I was at Prodrive last night for a tour round their facilities. I took the opportunity to ask about whether they had any plans to enter the ALMS campaign (especially seeing as at the time we were in the Aston Martin Racing garage and 007 & 009 cars were in pieces) and they said that as of yet they do not have any sponsors lined up for anything bar Le Mans itself.

Their race program is funded from sponsorship with no contribution from Ford or Aston Martin.

They expected that any decision to participate would be very last minute, including Sebring.

How about www.speedchills.com?

Last year they had their formula absolutely nailed, the food was always good and the drinks cold.

Thanks, you have a PM

I bought a CA flag last year and never got it, this thread just reminded me!

Let me know when you want me to start proofreading sections for you.

I'd quite like to do this too, promised myself last year that I'd do it and then didn't get round to it.
