I know when Tony first started up Planet Hampshire people were in uproar that it was SO FAR away and over an hour for most, now with the current lack of tracks a brief jaunt to Basingstoke would seem a stones throw away for some good racing.......

It took me 2hr 35min to get to bloody Silverstone last saturday which is in our current region (admittant the M1 was crap all the way and then the A43 was stationery for the first 6 miles too, normally it is under an 1hr for me) but my point is NOTHING any good seems to be 20 mins or so away at present everything is 45mins plus and NOT in abundance too....
