Great news. K is by far the best circuit in my opinion.

Actually that is a valid point. SDT don't run K because of the speeds involved, I wonder if they will accept, "hey, its MX5's we are not that quick' :)

The first part of the esses on circuit E are great fun in our little cars, I've never run circuit K so looking forward to that too.

Yep, I've got my postal vote kit, filled out and posted off. Never done that before. Very convenient actually.

Brilliant, isn't it? I've been doing that for a while, more out of wanting to avoid the gamut of how-to-vote cards being handed out on the way to the booth.

But they get cars that are very quick, and don't have the same resourcing as what will be at the club day, so fair enough I think.

Can carry an extra set of tyres if required. Will leave Burpengary Friday after lunch to beat the traffic.
Anyone else staying Friday night in Warwick? Should catch up for dinner.
