Not just test days - they race in a mixed bag of cars at the SEMSEC meetings 'sports and saloons' or something similar. It's a pretty varied grid - radicals, Jades, Westfields, Caterhams, Cosworths, Minis, silhouettes of various things (metro, mini and imp), I think there was a BMW out there as well.

The rain on Sunday certainly made it interesting - the Jades and Radicals normally run off and hide but the wet weather meant that the saloons etc could play with them as they struggled for grip (it started raining on the green flag lap - everyone was on slicks).

Generally the radicals at SEMSEC meets don't get bashed up too much but I guess that's because they'd have to be stupid to argue with a cosworth.
