Rubbish.

 

No real racing, saw 2 cars spin but they didnt hit anything else to cause it.

 

Some of the drivers weren't even attempting to go fast. coming on the power far later out of corners than other and not using all of the track/proper racing line.

 

Might as well had the cast of Eastenders driving.

 

Won't be going next year.

Nice pictures mikelskas

 

 

Thanks.

 

The accident I saw had just happened. Everyone had to come to a crawl to go around tarmac, gravel and bumper parts spread across 3 lanes.

Looked like someone hit the central reservation and bounced back into the path of traffic. :unsure:

Then to the side were the 7-8 cars all front or rear damage.

 

Forgot to add: to find my way I used that cheap Binatone Sat Nav from ASDA. £69. Perfect all the way down! Can only see one fault. The battery life seemed a bit short! But def worth getting if you want a cheap sat nav!

Well we had a great weekend. 10 of us in total, stayed at the Whittlebury Golf club, which was a 10min walk to the gate at Copse Corner, so no queing/parking issues!

 

We went up friday afternoon & camped over friday & saturday nite - which meant 2 BBQ's!

I know a few guys from here were going, and did look around the campsite for escorts, but didn't see any I recognised!

 

Took loads of pics, but most of my "Track" pics didn't come out too well, with a normal digital compact, (not like mikelskas, great pics!) so I concentrated more on the static displays.

 

We left before the last race on the sunday, walked back to the car, and drove straight home - no ques at all! (was a 400 mile round trip tho!)

 

we couldn't have asked for better weather, could we.. I got sunburnt!
