Snett this weekend (7th & 8th)

[ginettag27]

With a veritable cavalcade of racing going on at Snetterton (they've even laid on an extra day of Testing it's that busy!!) are any other Ten-tenthers likely to be there?

I'll be there on Thursday Testing and then (wait for it.. ) Sunday Qualifying and Racing (Ginetta's), but there will also be Caterhams, BMWs, X-Powers, Westfields, Tasmins, MGOC, Mod Prod Saloons, Formula Renault *and* BRDC Single Seaters (is that all??

Now then EPS,

Is there any sign of a timetable for the weekend yet? DP and myself should be there for both Sat and Sun. Are you just going to be there for Sunday or staying over from Thurs? (apologies if you told me the other night, but you know how it was... )

Well I'll be there in the KG Motorsport BMW M5, number 16 on the side. Come and say hello if you spot me in the paddock.

Look forward to spotting you EPS/Ginettag27.

Actually I had a minor falling out with some of your Ginetta mob at Silverstone. The hospitality tent was parked directly across from me in the paddock and with Mr Jardine hanging around plus most of the Ginetta folks it was a crowded affair. An increasing number of non-racing folks keep parking their sodding cars in the paddock.

In particular 3 ginetta supporters/hanger ons etc parked their road cars absolutely bang in the middle of my race car work area. This happened not once but every time I moved the bloody car: Went for scrutineering, came back - car parked in my space. Same for qualifying. etc, etc

I had a sense of humour failure and a couple of Ginetta folks got some earache from me about paddocks being for race cars not road cars. It wasn't the presence of the cars that was the problem just the complete thoughtlessness of the drivers - I need access to my tools/trailer etc and I got some odd responses to my requests for them to move.

Minor rant over and I will be erecting 10 ft barriers around my work area at Snett

Oops, that's not good - will "have a word"

I was testing yesterday (Thursday) - quite a full day, plus loads of time still to find - curses..

Should make for a really good race.
