That is one of the best photos I have seen in a long time :) Plenty of lock and a little flame, just for morale :)

Best of luck for 2010 Steve :thumbs:

We had a great day out at Brands, a wet start with one unfortunate casualty (car, not driver!) but only three red flags all day, very little queueing and great behaviour on track from all the drivers. We had everything from Porsches to Peugeots and Skylines to Minis out there and all going very well indeed!

:smilielol5: We mostly do the northern circuits so it's about five years since I was last there so I really enjoyed it even though I didn't actually get to go out until after lunch :toetap05:. Would like to run one there again next year.

I need to keep mine roadworthy for sprints but do envy you the luxury on longer trips

I wasn't convinced that towing would suit me TBH so I borrowed a trailer for the first couple of runs and then tripped over a very old Brian James tilt-bed for
