Sorry, I know it's very poor. :p

Might go up to the track on the Saturday and then enjoy the mature intellectual discussions here on the Sunday.

Expecting a lot of first lap incidents at the hairpin after Riches, especially in some of the support categories.

I've just realized you've made a major mistake on that image, Alex. MacDowell's smiling and we know he doesn't do that.

He wasn't smiling, it was photoshopped in so he wouldn't scare people.

Yeah, it was my awesome photoshop skills. :p

Has anyone been to a BTCC meeting on the Saturday? Hoping that the crowds are non existant until Sunday.

Yeah, but not for a few years. It's quieter but not too quiet.

edit: Shoulda added, went to Thruxton & Brands Hatch (I think!, although that might have been WTCC, so long ago I can't remember :p)

I've been to the Saturday at Knockhill for the last few years. It really wasn't very busy so you should be alright.

Yeah it's great, but remember how excited we got last year and probably because we got all our hopes up the races were disappointing :p

Oh well, finally my Avatar is coming to life....still gonna keep it after this weekend though!

It'll be nice seeing some Touring Car racing where there are other manufacturers apart from Chevy at the front of a field, seems like a complete AGE since the BTCC was last in action!

(Don't forget Qualifying on the Sat too....)

Much too long, we want more BTCC weekends :p

The only good Chevy is a Plato Chevy upside-down in the gravel...

I dunno, I kinda like Menu, not really sure why, but to use a comparison from his last BTCC year, he's kinda being the "Rydell" of Chevy's WTCC team this year.

Anyway, wrong thread!

Current forecast suggests heavy rain on Saturday, and light showers on Sunday. So expect sunny and 25 degrees. :p

Post subject:  Re: BTCC @ Snetterton 6th-7th August *spoilers*

If it does rain, it could certainly spice things up.
