Swift F.F
 Just want to say thankyou to all who supplied advice for my car problems i was having, Had the car setup and raced today at donnington in F4, Although the race was shortlived (red flagged because of high winds) i had a great time and the car was changed completely since my last outing, now its just a case of counting the days until the next round!!Thankyou to all who took the time from there own cars to come over and say hello, My team are really happy that we have finally found a genuinely relaxed and friendly class of motorsport. Highly recommendid to anyone who is thinking of starting racing!!

Basically everything , bad tyres, bad setup , corner weights where all over the place, shocks all at different settings, and one rear shock has decompressed! but we didnt have time to do anything about that.

Good luck with your car we passed you on the way to Don and on the way back ,do you live near Snet!! The 750 MC and the Monoposto club are the best for fun relaxed racing,and as you learn you will get better and better.

G Halls, So will you be out at Snett on the 10th for the test day ? We are hoping to actually have a working data logger by then, which I am sure will only go to prove that there is nothing wrong with the car that a decent driver could not fix.
ComtecRenault, I think you have got some competition from Lee this year - he looks to me to be a very useful driver. |

Does anyone know what is planned to happen about the cancelled Donnington F4 races. Will they be able to be re-scheduled ? Will we get our entry fees back ?
