Need some spills or I won't get on telly.
Am doing the BTCC at the beginning of October too

 

[lotusmark2]

Jammy Jammy sod!!!
Must get to the BTCC at Outon next year, did not get there this year.
Going to do the F1 next year as well (as long as they sort the regs out a bit)
Bound to get your mug on TV with that lot

I've just read that website. £10 for Friday, £15 saturday £29 for Sunday! 23 cars of 550bhp 3.4 litres sounds fun and hopefully more fun than F1. I really hope this series works out. Grav what days are you there?

 

[R2D2]

The Austrian team looks good! Run by Keke Rosberg and Niki Lauda and Mathias Lauda is their driver. ..........Jos Verstappen for Holland. Might have to go to Brands hatch this weekend!

 

[GrahamC230K]

Didn't know about this. Thanks!

 

[saorbust]

Pity you didn't book up earlier - you could have pit lane passes and grandstand seating........I'll have to take the camera.

Spot on
Saturday
Sky Sports 3 2pm - 4-30pm qualifying then Formula Palmer Round Eleven from Silverstone 4-30pm - 5pm

Sunday
Sky Sports 1 1pm - 5pm then British Super bikes 5pm - 8-30pm

I'm glad the Super bikes are on the same channel otherwise I would have been watching the two wheeled racing.

I just hope the new A1 formula is not spoiled by drivers taking each other out! Identical cars with identical power trains can be a recipe for disaster, not like good old motor bikes

Didn't make it mate.
Had a rush job come in for today and the rest of the weekend.
The way things are ATM, I had no choice other than to take it on and blow out the A1

Oh well, looking forward to the BTCC (TOCA meeting) next month, the BSB next month too and the A1 next year.
BTW, I have 1 guest pass for the BTCC if anyone wants it.

 

[R2D2]

Oh No Grav!! It was like the old days of f1 at brands. loads of people and "that" noise. 25 cars screaming through the woods in the rain was eerie!

At end of Practise team GBR was 2nd to Brazil whose car was driven by one Nelson Piquet Jnr!

 

[GRAV888]

Anyone want the FREE guest pass for the BTCC on 1st & 2nd Oct before I offer it to some work colleagues?
