Anyone else doing or watching the sprint on bank holiday Monday?
Entries are still quite low so anyone considering it still has time.

TWF?
My other half works shift, I have to attend ones when she is at home unfortunately which limits me.
At Loton last year a Westfield had a big off, tore off 3 of its 4 wheels, went home pretty much scrap even the diff was torn apart?

Tbh I'm a bigger fan of good competition that loads of runs, it gets a bit expensive on the tyre front with too many! Probably on site unless
the weather looks really bad. Going to be there for the Wscc trackday on Friday too.

They've squared the banking off to reduce the likelihood of any more airborne excursions.

Im at harewood on june 5th too :-)
Shelsleys great, scrutineering they check your old school tie and chocks away! Lol the hills more dangerous if you spectate, id much rather drive it
than walk it, you need to be 50% mountian goat not to fall on your ar5e!
In fact the paddock sheds are the most dangerous part of TWF, anyone over 6ft tall always clanks their head, just watch out for nails sticking out!
Re Wallaces accident, his car failed and its not great surprise he broke it up for spares and bought a Gould! Goulds a 'proper' big car
not a bike engined car on steriods with an F1 V8 shoved in the back. Wallace was a passenger before he hit the banking.
Lotons my local hill and if youve not been Dan youll love it! Very technical but great fun. The Jedi will go well there for sure.

Our championship was there, but i couldnt make MIRA. Usually do 14-15 events a year, but prefer hills or proper circuits rather than sprint circuits.
Think ive seen the Aston, will keep an eye out for you. This is my current motor
