Looking forward to it, I like the Silverstone track. :thumbsup: |
Free practice, but we put the timing on so you can hear your laps....
|
Just a heads up for any one planning on using the A43 Sunday, it is Moto GP at Silverstone, there are signs up saying expect delays, so may be worth leaving a little earlier in the morning to miss the traffic;)

Time for the Lazy goo to make an appearance!
:) |
The forecast seems to be a little better now

I think it must have changed again in the last 15 minutes :(
|
positive thoughts! it wont rain! :)
|
Many thanks today, even thought it got rained off :(
Can someone still post the results etc. or email them to me please? |
Correct decision by the organisers today to call it off because of the rain I think as the standing water was getting worse and effecting more and more peoples electrics.
It didn't benefit me in any way as I only had the one run LOL, but that's racing. I think the cost to the normal racer in the event of water damage is by far more important so cancelling gets the thumbs up from me :thumbsup: |
Indeed it can add up when it goes wrong / gets wet.
Also as someone who runs a club. Driver and marshal safety.. Chucking it down in Southampton with some very big puddles. |
I still had a good day despite the weather. Well done to the silverstone crew for putting on a really good even though it was wet meeting.
