Question York Regional Update???

Hi all,
Hopefully the 4WD guys will get this when they get home!
What's the news from York? Looking forward to 2WD tomorrow, hoping it's not as wet as Bradford right now!
Anybody got any track pictures?

Well I have just got back and given my car a quick clean to get the thick of it off. But all i can say is, i have never seen hail stones as big in my life, and it rain so much at the same time. The hail stones were as big as 20 pence coins, but it all had to happen half way through the final i was in, the C - final. It started raining so hard so fast that we were ordered off of the rostrum. I quickly though of going under the rostrum and did so until i saw how close the lightning was getting, then as soon as the rain started to die down me and Martin just plane legged it to the car as fast as we could. I was just unbeleiveable how much of the track was flooded, at least 2-3 inches deep at least.

I couldnt believe it. Literally 10 minutes before the storm hit, I was laying back on a towel and sunbathing! Then rain and hail of biblical proportions! Totally mad but strangely entertaining to watch. Until I slipped on my ar$e and got soaked!

Thanks to all concerned for a great day.
