Was a cracking day boys, I apologise once again for the video glare, just had no time to test the equipment and make any necessary changes before the event. All will be delbt with by the next event without fail.
But one thing i can say for those who wasn't there, if the video did work you would just see some serious driving and a lot of shocked faces as a new kid on the block went from 37th to 13th.
Your going to go far mate, I've attended more or less every track day youve entered and witnessed you eat dc2s, remaped leon cupra rs and scoobies in an mg zr... I've been in the car around brands hatch as you pushed (not physically) a 100k amg merc into a wall in your scoob. Hell we even held onto a gt3 on the nurburgring in the ek9!! An yesterday what a performance.
Great going the pair of you and I cant wait for the next event

Cheers for the words of wisdom Fox.. 
If you could send one of your production team round to have a look at the camera that would be great..

After the shoddy start I will 'personally' be coming round to sort out the camera to ensure such glare never occurs again!

Guys, did one of you tell me that you were planning to do Cearwent?
If so, then the camera will have to be removed, as because it is still an active millitary base.

The regs are not out yet for Get it Sideways on the 18th April, so will wait and see what the fees are....
I reckon we can do the 2 Down Ampney events for the price of one BTRDA entry fee.....
Aren't they both rounds of the CMSG Championship? (Cearwent and GIS@DA)
