Sorry to hear about the shunt. Hope Jim's back injury isn't too serious.

thanks Mike, great weekend all round. Did the last 4 laps of heat one with no brakes and a leaking rear wheel cylinder, P21 out of 28. New pads, shoes and cylinder plus Iain's magic touch in bleeding them meant heat 2 was better, finished P14. Got a good start in the Final and finished P12, lots of american muscle up front so well happy in the end.
Seeing 3 GT40s, 3 Corvettes and a couple of Mustangs being thrown around a short, tight and narrow street circuit lined with concrete walls is a memorable sight not to be missed!
Hard on brakes though - several accidents caused by brake loss, including my pal Nik who organises the Sixty-Fivers grids, cracked a couple of ribs and his Midget is a write-off :-(
Hope FJ Jim is well enough to be allowed home to UK very soon.
