After the TORA Britcar event, I am even more jealous of you lucky blokes that get to enjoy the real thing. Have fun Cool

Quote from Rogue:
"The team enjoyed a successful technical shakedown yesterday at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground. No major issues and the car is remarkably stable at high speeds but we're still working to find the optimal brake balance - something we were expecting - so we're back again this afternoon with Alric Kitson and Simon Aris."

Its Saturday Morning and we are still flat out on the car. We started it yesterday, and all systems are working bar one so that was good. Bought some road tyres today as the car is actually taxed and registered. I am hoping that at some point Sunday or Monday I will be able to head out on the Cambridgeshire roads and give the car a run......

Looks pretty awesome, think the swan neck rear wing looks a bit stupid on the car though!

What about Garage 4a? Wink

by GuinnessMatt Tue 18 Sep 2012 - 13:01

I'm hoping to get there on Saturday, but as it's really last minute and depends on other non-Silverstone related stuff falling into place, I haven't got any tickets yet (me and Bro-in-law should be attending, with luck). So I'm hoping you can buy at the gate (a previous post suggests that you can), otherwise it will be a wasted trip.
I'd love to stay for the Sunday too, but other immovable plans starting from Saturday evening make that an impossibility Sad

Grab the chance while you can though, right?
I'm very new to TORA (I haven't competed in anything yet), but it would be good to see you guys in the Rogue garage.

by **Richy59** Tue 18 Sep 2012 - 13:05

We may have 4 weekend tickets to giveaway, but it depends on interest.

If anyone is actually going to come to Britcar and do not yet have tickets we may be able to help you out if you let us know.

Agreed, I'll message you my number, when I'm sure I'm coming!

by F4H bandicoot Tue 18 Sep 2012 - 18:52

@Matt, I tweeted Silverstone and they said tickets were being sold on the gate, (I asked specifically about Saturday though)

I'll make sure to go to 4A Wink

That's great! Thanks Bandicoot Smile

Saturday is the day I can do... I will most certainly head to 4A too at some point in the day as I'm very interested to see what our guys are up to.

by wood53y Tue 18 Sep 2012 - 20:07

I think I got the last of the £15 tickets and then had to get 1 at full price and we are now camping in the site up by copse after our original plans fell through due to britcar changing their normal procedures.

Another very interesting swing of fortunes for the weather. Very unpredictable at the moment

Weds Night - Dry, 8'c
Thursday - Dry, Cloudy, 17'c
Thurs Night - Dry, 9'c
Friday - Dry/light drizzle, Cloudy, 16'c
Friday Night - Dry/light drizzle, 8'c
Saturday - Dry, sunny, 15'c
Satur Night - Dry, 7'c
Sunday - Dry, Sunny, 17'c

Dry throughout?! Last night it showed quite a storm Sunday morning, which has diverted off to somewhere else on this forecast. I'd still bring wet weather gear just in case!
