Good bit of racing on itv4 - reminder of Paddock Hill bend in the coupe a year or two ago! driving
Ginettas certainly giving it all in the support race!

There’s a great atmosphere as a racer at BTCC. We did a support race at Knockhill for BTCC and it was great to have a big crowd.

Yes I would imagine having a big crowd watching adds to the sense of occasion.
How has it been going this year MRS?

Only done two races. Silverstone (4th in class) where I had fuel supply issues (fuel tank wasn’t breathing) and Donington where I finished 3rd in class but, in a slightly bizarre series of events, was DQ’d a couple of hours after the race (having collected my trophy) without me even knowing I was under investigation. Not a massive deal but put a dampener on my weekend. And that’s it for the year.

All being more like a normal life, I’ll be out racing properly next year

Pity MRS about the DQ - but sounds like you have been going pretty well.
Were you pleased with the rebuild?

As you say, hopefully you can have a "normal" season next year.

Yup - there’s far more in the car than I’m giving - only 2 races in two years and I’m rusty. Need more seat time to get used to the car. I was getting faster and faster at Donny as I built confidence.
