If anyone has a long way to travel and wants to drive down the night before, you're more than welcome to crash in my living room.

And if you've got a fit sister feel free to bring her along.

I am with you 100% wolfie, I have heard a few horror stories lately occuring on track at this kind of event, it seems people are too tight to pay for a full days trackday, and so instead they buy a cheaper 15 mins session and then go berserk trying to "make the most of it".

Personally I will be sticking with proper full day trackdays, you generally seem to get much more aware and sensible drivers on these (apart from me, who managed to roll.....)

I got some reasonable video clips at quarry but have no idea who was who.
There was a quick black clubman, a white vtec rally thing, a white car with blue stripes and 13" wheels (seemed quick), a burgandie one, I seem to remeber a yellow and black one that was quick...will have to check the video for the rest.

How about those of you who were there posting up a pic of your car and I'll see if I have you on video.
