nice one.  track looked like it is drying off.

any incidents, offs, stories?

couldnt go cos i'm stuck in the office working on my dissertation [;)]

One guy in a single seater kit car wiped out on the straight.  I just missed it, but apparently the car swapped ends, race controller said it was because he had not warmed the tyres up enough.  Car was totalled, he went away in a ambulance.

I left at about 11.30...was just to cold, and I only had a denim jacket!  So dont know if there were any other incidents.

Back from an absolute awesome day at Knockhill but as usual it was the weather for up there it was blooming freezing to put it politely!!!!!!

Thanks to all the organisers for a great day,  loved the pax laps with Craig (Craig Mac), Stephen (st3ph3n) and Martin (scoobaru). All my drivers were great fun but I hope that Wilky and Peter get their problems sorted as I was looking foward to having a wee go in Peter's.

Unfortunately couldnt make it to the pub nearby for a cola as Derek my driver had something else organised.

My 1st time ever in a Scooby going around Knockhill and it wont be the last time either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spooks and Rosie forgot to give you a donation for the pax laps for Santa Cruise as it was well worth having those laps.

Also Spooks you'll be glad to know that your on camcorder as well as others and will get the connection for his camcorder and upload it when I can.

Once again thanks for a great day out. [y][y]

Thoroughly enjoyed my day, even managed a few laps before the end of the session. Hats off go to John S and knockhill for a good day out.

Seems I might have given Russ the kiss of death, car wasnt too well after we were out in it [:s], Graham was trying his damndest to crash when I was out in his car too, and I almost went for my regular excursion at the same corner........... ah great stuff. Apologies to Ian and the lad I took out on Pax laps .........yeh I am not the best driver in the world but im trying.[;)]

Fantastic day once again. Thanks to John for organising and to everyone who turned up. As always a good standard of driving and some great cars on display.

My tyres took a good melting, so I was qutie pleased. The car was spot on all day too. Couldn't get round McIntyres right all day, and I enjoy lining it up on the kerbs at the hairpin and lighting it up much more than taking it smoothly.

Best day yet and i wasn't even driving, good to meet some folks and had a few pax laps in this beastie

Westfield XTR2 which is nearly the same as the one that crashed, Bill the driver was fine just hurt his pride i think and car looked worse than it was as it's designed to come apart rather than break in such situations.

All my other pics are crap as i took them on zoom from inside the car due to the balltic weather.
