Are we going to the circuit Friday afternoon ?
Qualifying is on until 8pm .

Also I wouldn't mind a drive round the old circuit .
Fancied doing it last time but didn't get chance ( It was just past the Masta kink we parked Simons car waiting for the recovery )

Weathers looking a bit iffy but really looking forward to it .

Cars running well , still need to put the headers on instead of the SSIs .
Got a couple of thousand miles on it now so revs past 7k although still won't be able to keep up with Peter no doubt .

Not sure what time I can get away Wednesday so probably best to see you all in the usual car park before the ferry .
Cheers

it's spa ... always prepare for rain or snow ;) anything else will be a bonus :drunken: I'm packing full waterproofs :shock: ..

At least on Saturday we have tickets for the undercover lounge area and a bit of moisture will make the racing interesting :cheers:

Does look like its going to be pointless washing the car before setting off though

CAN I SUGGEST IF YOU HAVE A SLEEPING BAG AND BIG TOWEL YOU BRING THEM FOR THE CABINS ALSO.

We have towels and linen paid for but they are not the greatest and it was a lot hotter when there last.
