Right.

Got the urge to get out there.

As in the title I am racing at Combe, the Metros have a 22 car grid.

The day also includes Formula Fords, saloons(pug 106's to Evos etc), Caterhams, Peter Best MG's, GT's like Radicals etc and a round on of the British 250cc kart Championship!..Looking frward to that race.

A realy good line up.

Make sure you tip your hat if you come along.

Blue Metro Turbo 16C, Race 4 around 14.45.

Not the best of photos but it's good to see that Jon still goes round Quarry on three wheels:

Wolfie, it was good to see you again, you'll have to get a Metty & give Jon a run for his money.

If you don't mind me asking what shutter speed what the Evo taken at? I was really playing with the camera speeds all day which probably explains why I shoot off 300 odd pics.

No that is it this year, enigine needs a freshen up and still need to get the car/driver down to the weight limit.

Was a good day out, finished fourth, would have been 3 due to an oil starvation problem out of quarry. The oil light stayed on out of Quarry until I entered The Esses, so I eased off giving away my 3rd place(excuses excuses!)

Good pictures, Rob and Niel...

My best laptime was 1.25.1 for those who get the stopwatches out for next Sat at Combe.

Thanks.

Leave off the pylon, sits there a quarry looking dramatic against the cloudy sky and I thought it would be wrong not to get a picture.
