Facts
We are next to Silverstone racing track that probably have the best weather predictions in Europe.
We ALL knew that it was going to be wet before getting in our cars at approximately 6.0am in the morning to go racing.
We all knew it was going to be raining from the moment it started in practice.
In my opinion this was the ONLY time we could of cancelled and re-run on another day.
Throughout the day we were rushing to avoid the big rain forecast for late afternoon so the decision to run was made in my opinion.
At no point through the day did we even mention that we may call it a day and abandon.
The track in round by round rules could of been changed to avoid any puddles if needed to be. (I thought the track was real good under the weather conditions anyways)
None of this was done and now we want to change it all.
From my personal point of view I decided to race and I waterproofed everything like one should under those conditions.
Darren decided not to race and that is fine too.
David Burton as you all know one of the most experienced racers around did not waterproof and paid the price. I can use his name with no one arguing!! LOL - some other possibly too did not bother - LC Lazy was offering stuff that helps - I didn't see many taking the option......
If people did not take the right precautions then what do they expect?

As for results Darren - they are not listed so can't make a comment.
Ps - I will also add that I had a new set of tyres ready for the finals as normally that is where the points are scored. If I knew we could possibly finish earlier I may of chose to use them and qualify higher. This is what happens when we don't inform everyone what may happen - no ones fault as such but just shows that everyone has a different opinion and at the end of day I just think finish what you strted - the F1 in Canada did just that and what a race that was - LOL

Spot on Tony...
