Car & Trailer are sold.

Van is still for sale though!

I'm sort of glad that you've found a buyer but also sad that you're going. Will we still see you at Snetterton or is the sale with immediate effect?

Rob

p.s We never did manage to organise a proper multi-angle trackside video of the Brands race but i've got (a rather shaky) one of primarily myself, Matt and Jamie R if you're interested.

Thank you!
Car went yesterday afternoon, so I won't be racing at Snet. But I will still be there, mainly drunk! I shall be going there by train, meeting a mate with a motorhome and then going home again by train. No need to be sober at any point of the weekend!
I've not even had time to look at my Brands videos yet - so no surprise I've had to sell the car then! Roll on 2007 or maybe 2008.....
