...and I'll be at the Rallycross at Pembrey.

If anybody is at Cadwell say hello to my brother, Tony Kiss, who is having his first outing in his MR2 (bright yellow with grey sill sections).

I'll be at Cadwell. If you've been to one kitcar show you've been to them all. Plus my car's not on the road yet.

Was at Combe yesterday. Locost race was excellent - there was a pass to win on final lap (by Champ Declan I think) having been second all the way through. Also saw an accident at Quary where one ended up on the roof - looked nasty but walked away fine!

RGB was okay, but only 20 cars on track. Gordon Griffin won again having started from 7th. Rob Baldwin must be pi$$ed!

Hi Tim have you just ordered your full cage.

I think that Rob will have a win at some point this year. Possibly on a smaller tighter circuit than combe though.

Cheers matt.

Ps thanks for bringing the sunshine with you to a verry damp combe. Its not often the sun follows a welsh man.

Castle Combe 7th May

As a season ticket holder at Combe it was great to see the Locost Championship finaly grace the undulating tarmac at Combe.
I arrived 12.15pm after a long weekend in Wales, glad to say I was the one who brought the sunshine, cos it did'nt rain whilst I was there, bit blowy but thats normal !!!
It was a good race to watch with an excellent grid and a classic move by Declan McDonnel at Tower to pinch the lead on the last lap.
Hope you guys enjoyed it see you next year?

Hi glad you enjoyed the locost race. With it being a new circuit to the locosts it got a bit spread out and not so much of the ussual 10 fighting for the lead. But still some good racing further down the field.

Hopfully will have some footage to put a link to soon but suspect it will be a bit boring with only a few other cars in view.

If we return next year i think we will have to make the effort to do a bit more testing as we where under geared for combe but with brands next week and a full work load where a bit reluctant to change diff ratio for just the one race.

cheers matt

PS declan played him like a fiddle. I think will knew he shouldent of been in the lead for the start of the last lap.

Hi i do hope you dont try and use some of the spares lying around.

Slicks wings ect all though there is nothing in the regs regarding a team of 8 to try for a quick pitstop.

cheers matt
