Castle Combe Super Car Saturday, was a great success the highlight of the day was Anthony Reid (BTCC fame) driving my car

for hot laps to raise money for the Stroke Association.

Thanks to Anthony for the feedback and guidance for the race car, and showing me how it should be done.......

I have a lot to learn.

Silverstone National

British summer time in full swing, we arrive with a busy weekend. Free practise on Friday with 4 seasons booked.

Peter Best Race, and 3 x 2 driver enduro races.

Friday.

Best run for the black car this season we put ove 2 seconds on the blue car, however practise 3 saw me having a little

moment as taking bridge flat did not go to plan. Luckily I clipped the wall on the rear corner damage was cosmetic and no suspension

Damage

However thanks to the help of students from Bedford for pulling th back of the car out on site Frdiay night let have 4 cracking races

with 3 guest drivers.

After the students had finished. The car is booked into the college for a full overhaul at the end of

season, part of the NVQ 3 course is custom paint work so we may have flaming hot wheels next season

New panels have been sourced so the rear end we be fully rebuilt and the car seam welded.

At last ahead of Jonsey until the next corner!

By the 3rd enduro race we had got the hang of driver changes.

Team Photo, thanks to Alan at Toyo for the support and joining us at Silverstone.

Cadwell Park August

Cadwell park, what can you say........ Awesome circuit. After a wet night setting up and morning practise was behind a pace car, so race 1 was in championship order. Race 2 was based on results of race 1. It was nice to be near the front of the grid for the start however by lap 2 the field had settled. It took me a few laps to find my way and get used to the circuit. Great reacing as ever, Kevin in the blue car got collected which was a shame as he was on a flyer.
