Your lucky. The BTCC doesn't start for 72?

days and I'm so excited to see the new formula racing.

Trust me this year is going to be quick, if you are the same age as me (15) then it will be quick thinking this is the shortest time at school.

It should be good. While at Wakefield today they said entries were already up to 30.

I agree with Larsen-forget my GCSE's, the BTCC starts before them, and the BTCC is much more important!!!!!! It will come quickly around!

Elephino: Indeed, if you have a gander at the Silly Season over at Accelerate (http://www.qrda.asn.au) every man and his dog if running in the Konica Series, and I'd image they are going to have trouble fitting them all in to some of the circuits....

By the way, how does Wakefield look after their Christmas working bee??

Who's going to go to this forst round at Wakefield ?

We should try and meet up as a group perhaps ?

Crash,
Wakefeild is looking pretty good now.Ive been to about a dozen meetings there, but this was the first one where I actually went as just a spectator. This would have to be one of the best spectator circuits in the country. You sit on the hill on the opposite side of the pits and no matter where you sit you can see the whole circuit. the hill could do with a bit of shade though, got a littlre bit burnt.There are trees planted but they are a bit small just yet. Sorry for answering your question elephino, but i would also like to here your opinion about the circuit improvements as well.

Buckshot,
I will be trying my hardest to get there for the Konica series. I will let you know closer to the date

I'll be there. Hopefully I will have recovered from the sunburn by then.

It doesn't look too bad apart from the unfortunate burn marks on one building.

They did announce possible pre-qualifying. I assume due to the lack of pit spaces...the straight is only so long.

Ill be at wakefeild for the Konica series as well. Spoke to the minister for finance and transport and told her not to book anything that weekend and she said fine, as long as she can drop me off and go to canberra shopping. We have to make some sacrifices.

I will aslo remember the 20lt drum of sunscreen this time.

We will have to organize to meet somewhere during the day when it gets closer to the weekend. Somebody remember to post a new thread.
