And so to Prescott and the last but one meeting. Full fat Briotish and Midland Championship rounds, all to play for.

Saturday, so practice. First run and the track was very damp with overnight mist and drizzle, so krept up to the top like most.

It all changed for the 2nd practice, and the track was good. Did a great run and achieved 3rd in a class of 7, and only 0.08 sec behind Roger in his second rally Skoda..
The Norma was light years ahead. Mike got a late entry and a few more in the class of 7. I've never known the class to have 7 drivers/6 cars.

My first run was 45.44/2.14 start. That's ok.

PB is 44.15 set last year on nice new tyres, and i was a year younger.

3rd practice run came round after the Spitfire had rumbled pure Merlin over head, and went a touch faster, 45.44/ 2.10 and actually faster than the Skoda (45.62)

I'm sure that will change tomorrow as the temp will be a bit higher, but I will be pleased if these results repeat tomorrow.

Car is going well, clutch is superb!





Sometimes a real race sports car arrives, a Chevron with a very deep past, right back to the Targa Florio. Fabulous!
