We've just finished cleaning it too, checked all its vital signs and we're good to go. Bled the brakes through with some high-temp fluid as well. We're heading up to stay with a friend in Coventry tonight so we don't have to get up at a silly time tomorrow.
See you all there, we're both looking forward to it a lot!

Jezza and I both had a really good day again, was great to see everyone and get a chance to go out on track in the B10 and get rides in other cars. I was really, really impressed with the D3 Bi-Turbo, the way it coped with Craner Curves and the rest of the track.
I'll try and edit some pics and vids tomorrow, so hopefully have them up in 24 hours time.

Fantastic. Thanks Chris for the ride on the D3 BT especially when he made the M6 lost on the corner. Good fun. At the end of the day, I racked up more then 100miles(25-30laps in the morning section and about 10-15 laps in the afternoon) on my baby and half tank of juice. Finally like to see everybody again.
It was a great day, the laps with Andy Bovensiepen was the highlight of the day, just a shame that my car came home on the back of a an AA relay truck.
Thanks to Jezza and Alex for towing me out of the circuit and James for the ALPINA escort, I finally got home at 11.45pm.
I will post a some pictures later.
