So was I (a girl)

I have been dreaming about my line into the blind final corner and when to be flat on the throttle and even in my dreams I can't hold it open over the crest. As for my braking into turn one, a girly girl would brake later than me there. Desperate to go again as so many place I know I can improve.

Amazing place, you'll love it

PS - A little tip, don't tell anyone......The cafe by the pool is fine, but jump in your car and go to the cafe in the grandstand (where all the marshals and control room staff go)....shorter queue if you are there early enough in the lunch break and much nicer food freshly made...the tuna rolls are ace, (plus there is the gift shop, general store and the opticians.....yep, an optician, can't see why you need one!!!). Also nice place to end the day watching the sun go down with beers in very large fancy glasses....There were about 30 of us sitting round on the final day, I've never seen so much white lard before.
