I think the point has been made! I’m as guilty as most when it comes to the finer details of English grammar, but the important point (to make a post easier to read) is to avoid writing as if texting or making a comment on facebook / whatever.....
As David says, we can always read back through and edit before pressing submit! Latest weather forecast for Barcelona suggests possible Saturday afternoon rain. Guess when the 2hr 60’s race is? Oh well, can’t have everything..... |

Didn't expect my little mistake to 'blow up' like it has.Think we should return to talking about the event which is looking pretty good!

Having checked the weather forecast yesterday and again this morning, the jury’s out. Meteo experts obviously can’t predict a week ahead in that area!

Euuuh, Mike if I tell you our experts say it will improve on monday after your race does it help? Bring you rose tinted glasses with and have a look: you can enjoy tapas, cerveza, flamenco, castanets and last but not least you can use your brand new rain tires!

Lucky you! Here the predictions remain the same but the weather brutally went from easter style to thunder, heavy rains and strong winds!

Eventually got let into an outer car park late yesterday afternoon- wise as the trucks arriving had blocked the local roads! Last year there was a car park open before the entrance where they made us wait until Thursday, but this year it is chained off. Must make sense to someone......
Anyway, as it was cold and a bit rainy I cancelled unloading scoot and going for grub. Fortunately I had enabled the warm air heating, as by time I got up this morning it was only 3c outside! Into paddock first thing and got some leccy at last. Team flying from UK almost missed plane due to Mway hold up (how unusual), and car owner flying from Faro had to wait while they fixed an engine on that plane. Let’s hope that it’s easier going from here on........ No rain today! A bonus. |

Ha lÃ*, lÃ*, Mike you must have French roots! La terre est sèche, les salades et les fraises ont besoin d'eau nom de Zeus!
The forecast found here for your actual area is rather fine giving very few rain drops end of the afternoons. Enjoy at take car with your Zip (could be considered as a super bike somewhere.) Dont let the key in the ignition! May be you can share a lock with Will…*But how to put together an action cam and a scooter I wonder ! |

So far so good...car through scrutineering with no problems! Interestingly the cobras are now allowed to run electronic ignition, as apparently it is difficult to get decent points for them now.... |

Will when you say decent points you mean overall classification?
Fast what? |

Been watching the Live Timing. How many Red Flags. I Think that's about 4 in 4 sessions so far.Some incredible cars out so far.The timing screen is very ood,easy to understand.Have the E Types in 60s always been in a different class?

I guess "very ood" means good in your words not "odd"… Yes Alkamel supplies a good tool, very clear and complete, really user friendly. I seem to remember that the classification can change during the same lap unlikely many other systems. This allows you to "follow" the race and the battles from your armchair. Using a PC or a smart phone is a plus… If you like to test you as team manager, consider to make as many screen capture as you can. If you ask why it could mean I'm not clear!
Mike did you see the GTA in 1300 form? |

@ the youngest Will. If for instance you missed an info when watching the live timing, after a while (depending on computer and regulation) you can go "results". Thats what I just did. I read that Sixities FP was said dry track while HTC was declared Wet Track. OK its nothing like being on the pit wall, the best being on the pit wall watching live timing with your own computer to make screen captures. Got it?

It started to rain just before CER1 free practice, so the B19 didn’t go out. Nothing to be learned.....
60s qually also wet, and SLR finished up fastest under 3 litre car, I’ve been told. That on dry settings! Fantastic result for Will and Bill in the 356 also. |

The 356 being very fast is not new, congrats. I was a little worried about the carbon roof and the Perpex windshield but apparently it works fine!
