Thank you for your kind words Richard, I certainly enjoyed the race - it is always fun to show the big boys what car be done with only 1200 cc under the bonnet.
I had originally entered the Innes Ireland Cup race, but when the AMOC switched the races around so that became the final race of the day I opted to move to the Jack Fairman race as the car is eligible for either. If I'd stayed with the Innes Ireland race, I would have been on pole (we had a shared qualifying session) and as I had beaten John Andon (the eventual winner) only 2 weeks earlier at Snetterton, I think I would have been in good shape for the overall win.
I'm back at Brands at the end on the month on the GP circuit, a rare opportunity not to be missed for any driver.
