I think it was bigger than that! Yes he's a special driver Will though! He's seriously thinking about racing a Unipower next year!rich@minispares.com wrote:i think the 1380cc engine helped as well..........

Anyone seen an entry list for Saturday? May well pop down seeing as both HRDC races are late afternoon so no need to hang around all day.

You could talk Ant Anstead into restoring your 'Errr..' while you're there!
Looking damp for Saturday, so a tiny racers dream!

Yes could have done with a bit of 'watter' on the track for sure. Nice day to be a speccy though! What happened to Colin Flynn?

I think that happened about 60 seconds after I'd pointed out to Rich that we hadn't seen an A35 fall over yet!

With the amount of them that go over I think they need to start fitting caster wheels to the roof gutters of the A30/35's

Re: a series race at donington this saturday
If the rate of rolls in "Academy" racing where repeated in any other circuit racing formula I'm sure the MSA would be asking questions about the formula regs. Is not an "Academy"about learning??

Re: a series race at donington this saturday
was a cracking day out with a proper mix of cars in our race
a real shame it didn't rain though
my only 'moment' was when a guy in a tvr jamacian decided that he could both outbrake me and take a tight line into the chicane.....
I had to take avoiding action as he span!
