And they were racers, a couple of them were DP boys.
I'd guess we were running a tad under 2 min laps then, I couldn't get past you but you didn't drop me, fast thou boys run 1.32's. F400 lap record is 1.37.something

Even if you don't race (which you should) you should come up to watch. If there's a TD the day before this year we could do it and then you can stay and watch the races. There's always a spare ticket or 3 in the paddock (every racer gets 2 spares for his "crew") and if that fails you can either hassle MJ who's always willing to oblige or just keep a low profile, the paddock is rammed, no one checks that carefully and why would they? We're all spending money in the bar and so on.

Would perhaps be up for that, Fontyyy (the trackday and the spectating bit - too old, too skint and too busy for the other ). It'd depend a bit on timing and other logistics of course though as Cadwell is a hell of a trek from down here. Hard to beat on a sunny day though...

1.37! Hell's bells! That's godlike from where I'm sitting. Very big respect.

To get the thread back on track. I shall be very definitely attending Sam & Allan's excellent Cadwell shindig. And so should all of you NSR types. A 250 stroker is capable of so much more than you'll ever do with it on the road . And the always-up-for-it RGV boys reckon yer all a bunch of Mr. Sheen wielding pansies with dog slow bikes...
