Reckon you're looking at a lesson in how to do Curborough if it's the same local mob as last year. One even ran with no rear seats and wasn't protested.

Too late for a D8 switch?

Maybe you should try a proper sprint series next year

May well have to have a dabble if dates don't clash

It would be great to see you both at a sprint. Double drives are not a problem. One of you gets to run on warm tyres

Gotta stay in B3 for points which may well be a waste of time as I got well and truly whooped last year. I think I was 4th - closeish to 2nd & 3rd but miles off the rear-seatless winner who could have filled the rear with prop forwards and still won easily.

SBD points are okay but AEMC waste of time as we will probably be way off pace and it won't figure in our 10 best scores. Ditto, if I recall correctly, the ACSMC.

Mid season maiaise makes me consider withdrawing and saving the cash but it is a great little track and may be soon for the bulldozer and Baratt box treatment so I may make the trip after all.

Forgot you were there last year Kim :oops:

Logan, if you get the chance, walk the course with 'The Grimes Brothers'

Roger did a track training course there and knows it very well. I'll certainly be hanging on to his shirt tail

It's not very far to walk one lap.
