Andy

Craig and I are going down on Friday night, providing of course that those tossers have not managed to close it down, and are booked into the Travelodge at Skeeby, just past Scotch Corner, nb not the one at Scotch Corner Services.

Paul will pass on any news that he gets, until then we will just treat it as a goer.

On a standard day, Croft's limit is very low at 98. When I took my 360 for the TD, I was measured at 105 so got kicked out :( The SLR went through fine though.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Don't particularly like throwing a spanner in the works,but here goes -
I did a sessioned day at Croft last year.
Each hour split in to 3 sessions, so no problems 20 minutes driving per hour?
Wrong - session was 15 minutes plus an in lap and there was a break before the next lot went out,so i ended up getting 15 minutes driving every one and a quarter hours - not very good value.

Regarding the court case - apparently it's the owner's ex-wife and family that are suing him - always remember -

HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A WOMAN SCORNED!

(I really need to get booked on for the all day session at KH soon)

I have down both sessioned and open pit lane at Croft and have to say its not too bad - more of the worry is the torrential rain that seems to always arrive when I do....
