Just in case will Chris bring the Camera but were see if you turn up it will be a good surprise

Hello and welcome along.
I've added your name to the list of attendees so hopefully will see you on Saturday, for some fun.

Thanks for adding me to the list, looking forward to tomorrow.

Cmon Tash. Pack yer bags

It looks like brolly weather.

A good turn out with a variety of models. Good to meet a number of people.

Thanks for organising this Eddie and to everyone who turned up.

What a brilliant turn out, considering the very very wet weather! The guys at Lotus Silverstone were most accommodating and finally got my first drive in a supercharged Exige ... big smiles! Was nice to see the new franchise at Silverstone, hopefully we can build on this for future events.

Thanks for organizing a great day, can't believe my brother fluked it!!

Eddie.

Yes, thanks Eddie for organising a good day out. Pity about the weather - next time!(!) we need to make sure they get Lotus to send an Evora!

Hi, just a quick thanks to Eddie for organising the day, shame about the weather but it was only March, the Exige was fun but the autotest circuit really didn't do the car justice, Hope to see everyone agian later in the year.
Regards Dan

Thank you all the next events the sun will be out .
