Don't suppose so but if you are then pop down to GulfAir Racing or Atlanta garages and say hi.

Will do Les! Fingers crossed for better weather this year though!!!!! But then again it is Knockhill where weather tends to be Knockhillish!!! Got home after last years GT's soaking wet and freezing cold to find there had been no rain here....only about 60 miles up the road too!

Last year was ok, if I remember correctly! It was 2001 that was bad. But then, it was REALLY bad!! It might have seemed like last year!! :D ;)

You're right racefan!! Getting muddled up with last years touring cars..... now that was wet! 2001 powertour was the day when the mist came down....then it lifted and the rain started!!!

Yes Les...thermals, waterproofs but throw in the suncream just in case!!!:D

well i prayed for rain but my timing was out. It poured down as they entered parc ferme! They had wind, rain, sleet, sun and clouds in the space of 24 hours.

The boys in the golf did brilliantly - 5th in the first race and only just pipped out of 3rd in the second. poor old david Addison must have gone home with a headache from our lot screaming when the Porsche in 2nd was dumped out of the race. So well done Steve and Stuart.

Also Rick was in the Clio - that was a monster to start with - something had broke and one rear wheel would suddenly point in the wrong direction and throw him off the track. They didn't finish the first after a misunderstanding with another car at the hairpin but did finish 6th in the second.
