Would've been nice to have a track day on the Friday before, not viable to do 2 trips down there so the Wednesday's track day isn't an option.
The 22nd could well be a procession as I know I'm not the only newbie who's not been there before, some decent SOT boys are in the same boat too.
Think there would be any chance of a few sighting laps so we don't get in the way too much of people going for serious qualifying times?

Well my entry has gone in now i've got over a dose of gout !!!!...

....the pain of which made falling off a bike almost desirable.

Got a bit of organising to do if I'm going to do both double headers at Pembery and Cadders' though

Good idea Scott, a few extra sighting laps for making the journey. I have neither the money for a trackday or time to study YouTube, so it'll certainly be a learning curve.

Mine was sent in with my Cadwell and final Cadwell App.

Will i make it to the top ten by virtue of none attendances
C'mon folks, should be fun.

I was going to give CC a miss but I got persuaded to do it

At last .. a local circuit for Senna/Skids/Dalis and myself. Only 3/4 hr away for me. Saying that I have only ever done 4 dry sessions of this circuit last wed. So I'll be as new to it as most newbies.
If any of you fancy hanging around the area we have the Popham Megameet the next day Sun. Skids and Senna are driving straigt there to camp up in the van and a few others. so there will be a BBQ that night and a few cans. Its a great event.

As Steve says nice one Charlie, as for the pain from Gout, I'm glad to say I have no idea and would like it to remain so.

OK OK that's enough

Good idea about the extra sighting laps Scott. You're definitely not the only newbie, it'll be my first race since 1991 and my first at CC since 1986 (my first ever race in fact, and I crashed then), so can you all please give me a friendly wave as you lap me.
