[FONT=verdana,geneva"][FONT=verdana,geneva"]Colin McRae will race in the Porsche Carrera Cup. The former World Rally Champion said: "I know the Knockhill circuit well, which gives you a bit of extra confidence. I'm sure there will be plenty of local support! I've driven lots of stuff at Knockhill, including motorbikes. It's a fairly tricky place and you need to qualify well, so qualifying will be very important."
WHY DON'T WE GIVE HIM SOME TIPS? .... GORDO ..LINES... HA HA

Defo Mike _ i plan on going on Sat & Sunday to c porsches. Elliott would like to meet up with the boys so is that a date?

Half thinking of camping o/n - or have i had too many G&Ts?
 
Hadn't thought of camping for us but we will be there.
Possibility of an overnight if available, how big is your tent!!!
pm me for mobile no. etc.

Mike
 
Seems reasonable given the fact I have had several beers and a bottle of red tonight.
So unless I see things differently tomorrow organise a site and get back to me and I will share the costs and beer.
I will arrange a few Filipino and Brazilian female colleagues to join us for the evening but they are a bit fussy Ricardo.. so don't get your hopes up!!

Mike
 
So anyone def going for the carrera Cup / Touring cars weekend? Camping is a no no now that Ricardo and I are sober
Note unless you put the kids in the boot they are charging over 8s
Still some car park passes avail at 10 pounds

C u there Mike> spoke with gordo this am 7 meeting up at cbnauld shell 8ish & then driving up>

im also going up in an hour or so to have a butchers
 
Quick update ftom KH. As Brian suggests, boots were a good thing today as v muddy. But, touring cars qulaifying was surprisingly good and the Porsche race was just fantastic - the cars looked and sounded superb & the boys were just drifting them thru all the corners _ best bit of MSport sine Le Mans earlier this year[;)]

re parking - bit of a problem. No cars allowed "in" circuit by duffers side and all parking on left as u enter is taken up by racers gear. They tried to direct me to the field on the other side of the track but a marshall took pity on me & let me park nr circuit entrance _ doubt thatll be allowed tomorrow.

Went to see Sacha to try and blag some paddock passes & in fairness she tried but none left> tomorrows parking looks like a new field on the right as u enter the circuit?

c u all tomorrow _ Mike - ny mobile is 07775 543269< whats yours??
ricardo


 
I have a parking pass for Sun , cost a tenner but hopefully will get me behind the Railway straight. Otherwise for the non park passes it's a field and bus job , the queue last year to get into the field was mega[:(]
I have pm'd you my mobile no. ricky If you dont get that I will call you between 8.30 and 9.00 am
I am patheticaly excited about seeing the cars tomorrow

Mike

PS had THE biggest skid ever at a roundabout in Kilmarnock today in the 911 , probably diesel spill, I would like to think all the sessions at KHill helped correct it but it was probably just luck [:D]
 
Well guys a pretty good day out was had .
Touring car race 2 was magic with some robust action taking place, I'm sure I saw a certain Bully boy taking notes during the clashes....
We managed to get the wing mirror from this car..
