Goodto see Mrs McMurdo back out. Lets hope she has a good year.

Freezing cold day but a good grid with some new blood.

Gutted I wasn't out for the first one but will see you all in May!

And wasn't there a good crowd thanks to the discounted tickets.

[datapost61]

Fantastic crowd, 2-3000 I'd guess - queues for hot food/drinks were huge!

Lets hope it continues but with better weather.

Just in case Knockhill are reading (they get the gate money, not SMRC):
If you got the same revenue (2 people at half price) then the atmosphere was far better!
PS - about time kids 12-16 got a discount - still have buy an adult pass for my eldest (or use a full competitors pass if I'm racing)!

Rebuilt engine coming together - it'll be out on 5th May!

Can I ask, where did everyone get the half price offers?

My pal and I recon we were the only ones who paid full price!

I've done my share of KH historics Mr Datapost but like many became fed up with the lack of rule enforcement. You only have to look a the number of Scots in the various historic races elsewhere to see I was not the only one. I don't do HSCC by the way.
When the winning classic is lapping faster than the winner of the modern sports/historics then you know something is wrong.
The early KH classic festivals were goign in the right dorection but the poor organisation meant that the visiting series would not return.

Scottish Classic competitors will need to try harder if they are to match the times of the modern sports and saloons -fastest classic lap is 58.1 seconds - modern cars lap time at Knockhill has been as low as 52.7 seconds.

Spotted that - I'm going to be there to watch the Alfas so I hope there's a good turnout from the Scottish Classics to add some variety!
