I'll be up there on the Sunday, booked tickets and all...

Looks like a good program for the day anyway, I remember the last time Stirling Moss was at Knockhill - or at least I remember seeing him there some years back when I was a kid :D


I'll also be heading out at midnight for Harry Potter (although I may have been reading it since wednesday anyway...)

'98 Lotus Elise - Fun day car
'04 Maserati Coupe GT - Manual, v8, Italian...

I'm heading up on Sunday with a friend, hoping the weather isn't too bad so I can take the Exige. Not especially keen on Knockhill's muddy car parks...

Just back from the Speedfair.
Not a F40 in site :( . Were some nice early type 20 Lotus racing cars and a beautiful Europa Special though.

Did see a Titanium S2 in the car park though and a VX220 with stripes came blatting past me (I was in the family wagon) on the way up to KH chasing a biker. :wink:

Me too!
How did you miss the F40's? There were half a dozen! Any colour you like as long as it's red.

I took the hire car down over Glenshee - Focus which goes pretty well, I doubt I'd have been quicker in an Elise considering the weather!

Classics race was good. :D

Also a few Elises in the hill carpark.
Chased a few bikers over the cairn on the way home. :D
Also saw a Murkylarger, Fezza and Ultima in convoy on South deeside road when I was on the way down - maybe heading for Alford?

Chatted with our friendly Lotus (now also Aston) salesman. :)
