Has anyone got a time table/programme so we know what time it all kicks off? |

http://www.tophatracing.co.uk/index2.html It doesn't give times, but I would expect normal Mallory timings - practice from 9:30AM, racing from around 1PM. |

Ooh, 3000 posts - congratulations! I feel slightly inadequate....
Perhaps I can built up to, ooh, 50 by congratulating people!! Hopefully the turn out will be ok, taking the usual Spa massacre into account (oh and the dire weather we are having)! |

The timetable I received with my marshalling instructions:
Practice: Groovy Baby 15 mins Cloth Cap 25 mins Best of British 15 mins Top Hat 25 mins Oldies but Goldies 25 mins Allcomers 15 mins Lunch 35 mins Races Groovy Baby 30 mins Cloth Cap 45 mins Best of British 30 mins Top Hat 45 mins Oldies but Goldies 45 mins Allcomers 30 mins The meeting will be run to the 'racing ahead' format, which I believe means that each session will start as soon as possible after the preeceding one. Hence no times are issued for any session apart from the first practice session, which will begin at 9.30 |

I'm sure it'll be a very good meeting, just too soon after SPa for us, and the cars due an engine refresh.
on a lighter note, all the loons will be mending their cars after Spa so it should be a trouble free event as well |

As I thought!
Still, as long as plenty of the non-loons whose cars are still in one piece come along it'll be grand. Never been to Mallory so looking forward to it. |

I have just checked and have some good news for Mr Bullet if he can drag himself away from Mallory and make Donnington on the 21/22 Oct for the Best of British meet featureing most of the CTRCC championships, Joss Ronchetti is indeed entered for the Classic Thunder event.
Also if he likes old Camaros (how can you not?) there are no fewer than 3 entered in the Pre 74s and Group 1 races and they may well go to 4 as one of our Camaro drivers generally enters a bit late, we have a 1st Generation car coming over from Ireland that looks absolutely stunning and if this is not a thread highjack I don't know what is:-) |

Al, it was such a good hijack that all the subsequent posts were about Donington so I've moved them into that thread. If they look out of context, it's your fault!
