Just in case some of you would like to come along and watch tommorrow is an official Toca BTCC test.
Toca have hired the circuit for the pre-snett race in August so hopefully we are expecting all of them here.
Its free to come along and watch and walk around the paddock area. Its usually a rather exciting and fun test day, ideal time for those budding photographers to get nice clean up close shots of the cars before the mayhem of the actual event!! :-D

Anyone pop down and have a look then?!
If not there are 8 cars tommorrow but not sure what 8!
Quite a decent day really, only one off but it wasnt half major.. will add a pic shortly.. Mr Jelly in his RAC BMW went into the tyre bundle at riches at a serious speed, unfortunately missed the gravel trap by meer inches.. he's fine though, car wasn't.

Not unless you were at my office mate! I was locked into meetings until around 5pm so I missed out on watching, hearing and absorbing all of that TOCA shaped loveliness because I am intolerant of shoddy behaviour. The more staff we employ, the less people seem to manage the aforementioned poor behaviour so the more disciplinary meetings I end up chairing.
What a way to make a living :roll:
