Yes, I'll write it and yes, it will be on at the usual time so do add it.  It's nice and low key - good stuff.

...and one year they might manage to spell all the drivers names correctly  :D
Yes, always nice to know I'm not the only cr*p speller on the planet.  I think they get the Grauniad to produce them.

I've written a piece about Mad Friday which is on the work PC should should wing it's way to Werner tomorrow assuming I get back in the office! I seem to be quite light on photos though, i.e. I can't find any!

Has anyone got any decent shots of Mad Friday situations? (Burnouts, Water Pistols, Cruising etc)

Some, but they're at home on the PC. We have "house guests" this w/e and I have a lot of stuff to do but I'll add it to the list.

There was one mad Friday pic (I think from Rusty) which I'd rather not see again, and I'm not sure would be suitable for the guide... 8) :o

Here's some water pistol action from HA roundabout before it got too stupid.

Werner, Championaudi asked here
http://www.clubarnage.com/forum/index.php?topic=7112.0
which end of the pits grandstand his seat was.  It occured to me that an idea of where the seats are (ie is seat no. 1 on the left or the right of each stand?) might be good for next year (too complicated for this.)  Between us there must surely be a member in nearly every grandstand on the circuit who could check it out and make a note for '08?

Good idea termie - so, you grandstand-ticket-owners, please let us know this for the 2008 edition...

The entry list is now set. No more reserves can be called if anyone else drops out.

Just be aware, Werner, that the list as published is full of errors.  Where would you say Jacques Villeneuve comes from for instance?  And I really didn't know that Jean-Denis Delatraz was Czech.  Who's H Warren (GBR) by the way? And Vincent Bosse? ;D

I had already started to work on the entry list, it's probably more accurate already than the A.C.O. list, see http://www.clubarnage.com/caguide/caguide2007/c05-entrylist.pdf

However: If someone sees mistakes, please post them asap, we want to be as accurate as possible on D-day (Download-day ;D)
