I'd guess this meeting isn't going to help with entries for the Masters on Good Friday at Donington!?

Will, second in the GT2 category, wet track, I'm correct? Comfortable for tomorrow's race?

I guessed it was wet track too. Seemed hard to get a couple of clear laps in, constant yellows at Turn1 presumably mostly spinners who got going again. And a red flag to accompany the two in free practice in the morning.

60s was on a drying track. We were watching from the top of the race block, and there seemed to be a steady stream of spinners at T1. Iain and Dr Bob going well.
50s was on dry track, although oil was on the racing line through the last sector. Car was going well, until I missed a gear…#&@#!! We will check valve clearances in the morning to see if we have got away with it. It is nice not to be constantly leaping out of the way for faster cars though!

Hope your over-revving is not fatal for your engine, Will. Depending on how much the tach recorded (if it had time to record anything!) and the valves/pistons clearance I guess. Weather forecast gives some thunderstorms but not during your race. Be safe, be good!

Will/ Bill just lost the second place in class at the end of the race. Two very fast MG B's there.

Sorry for you and the team. Was it fun in spite of this DNF? Good start for DrBob it seems.

Yep! You're classified, better than nothing at all. Iain did a short relay and Drbob two, right?

Nothing for your car on the provisional classification sheet, David. Which should indicate the time of display… And this is an FIA sanctioned event!

Seeing an E Type as winner is a suprise to say the least. Very fast. Very very fast.
