I'll probably be up for the cadwell day.

Also, if anyone cancels on the walshy day, i will take the space.

Now that I have been assessed and allowed to join LOT

I have booked also.

Also booked the travel lodge so will probably have a spare bed if anyone requires one.

If anyone has a video showing the lap without edits I would be much obliged - this guy had fun with the video editing, but it didn't really let me see where I was meant to be driving

robin, have a look on the LOT site, there is also an excellent circuit guide on there! Obviously i couldnt cross post that one as its members only!

Thanks for the video links guys - appreciated - does look like hold-up-city though for most of the time - I love the guy in the old 911 - was it a 968? He didn't really think he could keep ahead of them, did he?

It does seem to be a bit of an elise circuit, but it's going to be a killer on the brakes - the downhill into tight left hander looks steep on film, so I guess in real life it's really quite steep! Braking there is going to eat the brakes, and I imagine there may be a few new-pants-please moments there too

Hoping it's dry, 'cos in the wet that is going to be a handful, and what's more I would be better off in the 2CV than the elise!

Cheers,
Robin
