In a Dragon's Den stylee - I'm out. We'd only get a hour or so of running before having to head back for the GP.

Gosh (there it is again) my attendance is nearly as bad as RM - Then again he is now based Darn Sarf.

See you in Feb 2008??

p.s. would have loved to see the GT3 (only seen briefly) and also the GT2.

Well shame on you.

I'm thinking of cutting out the southern loop, Steve, and heading for an early lunch, so folks can head off early if they so wish, or take some pics, have a ride in the GT3 or whatever. Still time to change your mind.

Henry, et al, 11.00am ususal place.

Anyone who fancies coming, give me a call on 07802 805 725. You'll be most welcome, but bring something to eat.

Steve, you're a lightweight
John/ Paula good to see the two of you again (and a pleasure to meet Paul and Baz too)
(BTW your car looks absolutely stunning Paul)

Some thoroughly enjoyable "spirited" driving on superb roads (and with Johns customary stunning weather thrown in !)

I hope the old girl managed to keep you honest today John (I think I she may have a few more stonechips on the front now. . . . . ) She makes quite an efficient overtaking tool too !! Though I have to say that new toy of yours is mightily impressive, if a tad slow in a straight line ;-)

Yep sure was another good day. Thanks for organising the day John and of course, booking the sunshine.

Good to meet you Henry and one crackin' motor you have. Great photos Henry/John. Great to be seen next to your awesome machines

Hopefully we might get another run out weather permittin', hey John :-)

It's a shame to find out after the event because there was a pre-hibernation sprint on at the new Anglesey circuit on the Saturday and Sunday. I had the RSR there for a final blast of the season (I'll load the movies on the website soon) and Roger Moran (of single seater British Hillclimb Championship fame) had his beautiful new white 997GT3 out for an airing. I beat him by 4 seconds, but I guess that's another story....

Hmmmm, stripped out and caged 1995 993RS CS Speed Yellow, 4.0 litre 450+bhp n/a (no doubt with some suitably sticky rubber) weighing in at what ? 1200kg ? and engine rebuild intervals of what ?? V's 415hp 1460kg ? luxury sled with air con and two armchairs for seats ? along with more sound deadening and gizmos than you could shake a stick at I'd imagine.

Not exactly comparing apples with apples are we Mr B ?

Perhaps if you were to beat one of these :



or one of these :



by a similar amount, the comparison would bear some further scrutiny . . . . . . . . . . .
