I'll be there with the A105 in the Oldies but Goldies and Pre-66 Under 2 litres race. New, beefier front springs fitted in an effort to keep the inside rear on the ground, and bringing a bigger hammer to ensure the drums seat properly this time...
Checked with Masters, they have agreed with the MSA that the revised chicane layout does not constitute a "new" circuit so if you've raced at Donington before, no need to attend the new drivers' driefing. Donington tell me that blanket in-car video permission is granted provided the set-up passes scrutineering. |

So who is going to leave on Sunday with the outright lap record - it has got to be one of you. And also, for a future day, who will take the outright full circuit record in place of a Mr Senna? Regards Jim |

The access through the pits off the loop is still possible - or was not so long ago. I've seen bikes using it. However I doubt that the wet shortcut would work with pit lane speed restrictions ...! |

As the only professional racing driver I know I always suspected Terry as being the Stig - just shows how wrong you can be!

Not another one taking the mick out of my lovely overalls!!! You wouldn't believe how many people took the p*ss on Monday. Luckily they are falling apart (they were on the Demon Tweeks cheapo shelf) so a nice new black set will be purchased to save further embarrassment. Anyway, must rush. Got a meeting with my lawyer... |

Well with regards overalls, the key things are cheap and.....BLACK!! Should've realised only fast drivers can get away with white! I may be there on Sunday, so I'll keep an eye out for you when you aren't in the Beemer. |

I do tend to get dragged into working on the oily bits while I'm still in suit. Mind you, after my off on the exit of Shell I now have another reason to have darker overalls...
