Scott,

you will be missed if you cant come on. And as Hugh says, a big welcome when we see you next. I hope all stays ok for you.


Snetterton time I am aiming for is a 2min 20ish lap.................

Mallory is 1.4 miles and a 1.04 is respectable. So with a 3 mile track and a tight hairpin and far more bends, it is certainly going to be well into the 2 mins bracket. IMHO.

Do you mean mid 2 20's or are you just feeling very fast right now?

Well, no-one has guessed right this year even for the tracks we had already been to... we will know by Sat night... or maybe not, judging by the weather!

It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.

No worries chap. We all realize we are only here once... Part of the reason we race while we can. Sometimes though, very occasionally, something is more important than racing (very occasionally). Joking aside, I hope things work out for the best.

Hurry back though... I need someone to occupy Bradders before he gets too fast!
