Tom,
Are you running on both days?
[/quote]
Yes indeedy! Saturday I imagine we will be horribly slow whilst learning the track - only 4 runs per day!!! Sunday I imagine we will be horribly slow because it looks like rain on the Saturday night.
So basically we're going to be horribly slow
[/quote]
Hope you do well!!
Can't wait for your report after - will be good to find out how Prescott and Wiscombe compare from a driver's point of view, since AAOC have an invite to an event at Wiscombe in September! (More on that next week)

Re: Hill Climbing for numpties......
Henry and I had a great weekend; Henry knocked off over 11 seconds from his first run to his last to go 6th/7th with a PB of 50.6s over the two days, I managed to get a 5th/5th and scrape a 49.75s and only one car in front of me using road legal tyres (as we were, rest on slicks); so really pleased with ourselves - and the car is in one piece ;D
Bod - I would say Wiscombe is more a 'balls out' type of track whereas at Prescott you can make up time by getting the right lines. Prescott has some run off, armco etc, Wiscombe has hay bales tied to the trees :o Rolling back from flat out in 4th gear, a dab of brakes and into 3rd through a 90 degree turn between two gateposts is pretty hairy I can tell you!!!
I'll put a video up soon so you can see for yourself, Hen got some good onboard stuff.....
