for me probably HSCC Donington, Silverstone International, Snett 3 hour, Castle Combe and possibly Spa and British GP if we are lucky enough to get a support race again. Ironically more than this year but less than normal

Nice line up Simon,I really would'nt mind a crack at the Snett 3hr,did it twice before and really enjoyed it.Commited to the 6hr anyway but not certain of any time table at present,that will depend on what I'm involved in work-wise.

I'm waiting for the Masters calendar but I'm told the first Top Hat/Masters event is 19 March at Snett. This may prove a bit difficult for me but we'll see.

Whatever, I'm hoping to get to six events, same as this year.

Next year will be my first full year racing. I have decided to do all rounds of the MGCC Peter Best Insurance Challenge and selected rounds of the CSCC Swinging 60's series. Plus lots of spectating.

Having moved the GT6 on to its new custodian I will be mainly wearing safety boots and building my TVR Grantura. For a little light relief I will be assisting building Jon's Falcon. If I'm good he may even give me a drive in his GT. So it looks like a quiet season as far as driving is concerned and lots of scraped knuckles in the garage.

Hopefully I'll do the Marathon and the 6 Hours again.

Hopefully Peter will enter the D-Type at the S'stone Classic.

After my Britcar efforts there is an opportunity for me to do some modern GT4 stuff but I'm still waiting on that, and it will be expensive. If that doesn't come through then I might get the F2 car out of mothballs for the DBT. Either of those last two options mean getting properly fit. . .
