I was glad to see that you faster guys didn't actually lap us slower 40's at the back, as I had heard rumoured. I 'pootled' around the first lap, but was then more confident (in the car & myself) to give it a bit more on the second lap, and actually ended up overtaking quite a few cars :-)

Seems we all suffered with huge amounts of traffic though, but maybe that is a deliberate ploy on behalf of the organisation to keep speeds down somewhat?

Also saw that the Ford GT slipped off before the end - so that's how to avoid sitting in the exit queue on the Bugatti Circuit! Think a few others could have done with that option to avoid overheating (not me this time I'm very glad to say).

Must download my pics from my camera tonight, then upload any good ones. My camera packed up half way through the weekend though :-( but can still get the pictures off the mempry card. My Brother still had his camera working, but was using film not digital so will have to wait until he gets them developed.

Must once again extend my gratitude to Roy for organising all the club stuff, and all the others who assisted, especially for the BBQ.

Cheers,

Max
