Where's my invite?

Wouldn't it be embarrassing to be the one journo to stuff the GP into the armco right in front of the web cam?

At 12 frames per second we may miss the GP as it will be in and out of shot too quick

It's not if we could see much.

Unless Paul's trashed one and we're being punished.

Had a great time today, trying to get used to this crazy foreign keyboard just now!

Anyway, the day has been excellent, lots of photos and in car video to share tomorrrow, but the car is awesome on track, excellent fun. I was fortunate (the only one) to drive the red JCW S and the GP on the track one after another, and the difference was incredible, much more than it seemed driving the GP alone!
