Derwent is heading for a stewards' enquiry!
There does seem to be a reluctance from some of the southern "elite" to come north of Donington. Croft and Oulton Park always get a thinner entry ands there has never been any success getting a decent historic meeting at Knockhill.
Living in the far north of England I am amazed at the lack of knowledge of geography of some of our southern friends. One fellow competitor in the GTS series suggested Anglesey was nearer to me. I had to point out that while for me it was 200 miles to Donington it was in fact 220 to Anglesey.
It's the same with the various TV series of so called celebs touring the UK at the moment. It would seem most had never visited the Lake District let alone Scotland. What a blinkered world they live in.
