The Monday will be better than Sunday as it is the finals & superfinals day.

Access to paddock areas is bloody good and viewing of the whole circuit can be found at certain spots.

Entry list here
http://www.lyddenhill.co.uk/documents/E ... y-list.pdf

the only Toyota we have to cheer is a super 1600 Yaris!

The new Volvo looks quite nice.

To give you an idea most cars are running 500-600bhp 4wd on a mix of tarmac and gravel/dust. Heats are aroudn 5 laps or 4-5 minutes each. The action is very fast paced.

Now i'm in a bit of a quandry.. do i bring the 185 (poor mpg, cramped, and no a/c exhaust hitting the g/box or underside somewhere) or do i bring the superb which has everything the 185 doesnt and more :? ..Answers on a postcard please :wink:

Indeed CDB - big thanks to all who turned up. The Dc camp had good food, company and some unusual drinks! Everyone mucked in it really was a pleasure.

Sorry to lewis/alex who we kind of lost on monday and I promise next time we catch up I will take you out in the m3 :-)

The racing was ace as always - sideways, damn close and sometimes too close. The action is frenetic with races only lasting about 5 minutes.

big thank you to all.
