Chased again today. They promise to call me back when they get time.......... :o

Apparently they had a call to underwrite 15 cars for a rally in Finland this week. Guess that means little people like me get slung to one side.

I'll have it sorted by the middle of next hopefully.

A cold but sunny day, track car performed fantastically, just keeps getting better... Lots of nice metal including a couple of R8s and the usual selection of 911s.
Two incidents, a very nice track prepped golf ended up on its side and an S3 had to be removed from the kitty litter...

I really enjoyed my afternoon session. Seemed really well organised and a real friendly bunch of people. :thumb:

The lad with the S3 had driven from Hemel Hempsted for the day, so when he popped both his tyres off and had to be recovered back to the pits, he was a little anxious.........one of the guys from motorsport engineering (?) based at the track, took his wheels away and got the tyres back on though :grin:

He then had a few more laps and was there till the end :!:
