 Had a great day out, even considering the sunburn !!  Wifey thought it a bit busy in the Lotus box hense we moved out to the Grandstand and got a
the sunburn, was a fab day out though
I tried to tell Dan about the Jam and gave him an alternative route, It only took me and extra 15 mins to get home with the detour, Might even be
better/safer than the M25 back to Croydon

Thanks to everyone who came along, was an excellent day and some excellent racing.
Really good to meet a few new people and put some faces to names of people on the forum.
I can't see any reason why we shouldn't be able to get the box again as they are often not used for the Locost\RGB meetings.
I think maybe I will get a little something for Paul and Lotus on Track for letting us use the box, I'm sure he waon't want anything but
would be a nice jesture from the Locost boys.
For any of you thinking about doing trackdays then LoT (www.lotus-on-track.com) really do some excellent days and at very good prices significantly
lower than any I have seen and the driving standards are excellent.

Back home in Oxford now, thankfully the jam was caused by rubber neckers going clockwise and i managed about 15-20 mph(just enough to keep the rad
cool )
A big thanks to Rich for sorting it out, i would have raced you onto the motorway but there was a long way to go and i'd have only have cooked
the engine a few miles down the road. Looks like louts on track guys maybe getting a few more memberships.
Bob that Picture looks like the M25 when i got to it.
ATB Dan.

Dan we saw you in the que on the slip to the Mtwentycarpark, we went straight on towards Westerham and cut through to Redhill before joing the M way
again

Yup, we did, but headed off before getting to Redhill, went through Merstham and rejoined at J8!
Dan, I found out later that although the accident was on the anti-clockwise, the back up of traffic on the clock-wise was due to the police halting
the traffic to allow the Air Ambulance to land, pick up and take off!.....
Glad you and the car got home safe and well
