Shaun · Jun 11th, 2008, 07:17 AM

Nearly as bad as Croft and tha'ts on Sunday maybe its the credit crunch eating into peoples "going racing" budgets?

That would be the safety car then? I was at the opposite corner.

Great day yesterday some good close racing Thanks to Mendip Minis for the parking space and well done Kieth for two 3rd place finishes. Pics to follow.

Great pic, missed the incident itself as over nr Westway chicane. The MINIs were doing a fair bit of grass mowing at Westway ttowards the later stage of the races. Great to watch!

Kept an eye out for you guys over at quarry but couldn't find you unfortunately.

Shaun, nice to meet you, look forward to the pics.

Ade1986 · Jul 21st, 2008, 08:57 AM

Just uploaded my pics (hopefully this works)
