I hate driving on high tyre pressures-makes the steering feel really vague...but they're the professionals so follow their advice I will.

Cheers for the tip Nick-I always keep a digital pressure gauge and footpump in the car, but will take my compressor...

I know I thought the high tyre pressure was a wierd idea, but apparently if they are too soft on that part of the course, they can (and have) ripped off the rims of some cars ....so I happily did as they tpold me! It makes the drive to the pub interesting at lunchtime .
Have a great day and make sure you get some film of your 'laps'.

I've suggested to my other half she comes along and watches...she just so happens to have a reasonable camera.

I'm gutted-I'm starting a new job next week and I bet I can't now get time off either for North Weald or my trip to Paris which also happens in mid February.

Damn, damn, damn!

Did I miss something? Have you left the Merc world? What are you doing now?

I'm leaving next week-it can't come soon enough...

I'm off to one of the Vauxhall dealerships in Luton as a Service Advisor.
