If you can't make the Mini45 meeting, the Mightys, Supers and Xtremes are at Rockingham on 18th July. Part of the Classic Sports Car Club meeting.

It's on a Tuesday...
Was thinking about it but will probably be at Brands for the Formula Saloons if I do make it out. |

I have just bought a copy of Ken Tyrrels's autobiography for the straights.
Our last three rounds included Oulton Int, Cadwell and the Rock (int) The national circuit is like the M11 with a bit of road works and a few cones. |

Yes there is some next to the old run way. Space will probably be limited as I feel this could be a busy one for campers!

The runway isn't too far from the paddock, there should be space to camp in the paddock...but its all tarmac/concrete!

Simes,
I'll bring along a copy of my footage from Cadwell... Got your scraps up ahead of me.. I did consider waving at Rockingham but was too busy looking out the other side window sawing at the wheel.. |

Evan, bring the video along.
The waving thing was probably not a good idea, the mood Nev and I were in. Forget the state of his car, Nev was not happy standing in the mud in his new diadoras! |
