I know it's short notice, but if you are a member of Club Lotus and take your membership card you get discount on entry and Club Lotus Staffs have 6 passes so you can park your car in the paddock. PM me if you are interested,
Cheers, Phil

Hi Phil, You have PM.
Martin, if you would like a lift there and back on Saturday, let me know where to collect you - I forgot your new address.
Cheers, Chris

It's about 190 miles for me. I,ll probably set off around 6. Fancy meeting nearby around 9.30 or is that too late?

Hi Phil. I just got back from climbing at Calshot. I slipped on one of the climbs tonight and have pulled some muscles in my right calf. It was pretty sore driving back this evening and I don't think I can drive for 6 hours+ tomorrow, so I'll have to miss out. :( Sorry, Chris

Sorry about your injury Chris - may be next time.
Weather was cold but dry until about 3.30. Some interesting cars. Clive Chapman was there with Classic Team Lotus. Out on track was a Type 76 1974 car as driven by Ronnie Peterson. This car had an inovative clutch and four pedals. Also a Type 92 1983 with active suspension as driven by Nigel Mansell / Ellio DeAngelis
