Looking at the entry lists I have found our Tim, MGDavid and Simon Benoy entered. Anyone else? Timetable and those lists all on MGCC website.

On the 200 circuit, Event includes usual series plus the BMH 4hr Relay Sunday afternoon. Hope to get over sometime on Saturday to kick a few tyres. Latest weather suggesting rain passing through Thursday night into Friday, then mainly dry Saturday but cold at night. It is October.......

Brian A should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I've just put in a late entry for Saturday's Ecurie GTS race (can't do Sunday) in the Elite.

Following the disappointment of the clutch plate breaking at Castle Combe on Saturday, I'm hoping for better things of the little Lotus.

Yes - I'll be in the relay race with a team of Imps. The MG CC relay will hopefully be more suitable for our cars than the Birkett so looking forward to it.

Cheers - Simon

Thanks for the offer David. Very kind. Truck loading for Portugal will influence when I can get to circuit and guess will be pm!

See you there.

Mike, make sure you pop "upstairs" and come and say hello - you know you are always welcome!!! Even more so when you've not left those big thick black lines on JP's nice smart pitlane tarmac!!

Looking at the forecast this morning for Thetford, it is showing fine weather for the weekend.

What does the local knowledge say Mike?

I'd really like to finish the season in the dry

I'll go and check the seaweed and see how low the swallows are flying...

Used to use the Motorsport Weather App but seeing as they can't get it to work with IOS6 some common sense and local BBC instead-

Rain tonight, dry but cloudy Friday, sun and possible shower Saturday, windy (ha, never windy at Snett!) and more likelyhood of rain Sunday. Low pressure system predicted to be over south of country then, but obviously path could be different to what computer is saying....

Our first event with the MGCC and we were made very welcome. The relay race was just as we had hoped it would be - a nice mix of cars, a few of which we could keep up with and very enjoyable. All our team loved the event and hope to be able to join in again next year.

There were a few 'very moderns' but they gave us room when whizzing by, especially in the wet where our Dunlop crossplies are struggling a bit and they are cooling their soft wets in the wettest bits!

Hopefully there will be a few pics posted...

Cheers - Simon
