I thoroughly enjoyed today's racing at Stoke. This is exactly what we need in the NW *** VARIETY ***.

There are things that could improve, but we can say that about all our venues. In all honesty, I’d rather hit a tyre than a lump of concrete and I don’t really care that one is covered by BRCA rules while the other is not.

For those who expected perfection on the first 1/10th outing at the track – get a life.

For those who expected to finish early and went home leaving gaps in the marshalling – think carefully before booking round 3. It’s a long day, we know that in advance. Either allow for it, or next time help reduce the angst of your fellow drivers and don’t book in.
