Yeah, I enjoy Knockhill. Such a great circuit for touring cars.

Neal's been passed fit. James Thompson had been on standby in case he wasn't.

Can we not just have Thommo as well to take points off of Plato?

Also, woo Knockhill (one of my fav's). Is there a round on Sept 18th? If not, this might be my last of the season what with starting Uni and everything being a bit mental Late Sept/Oct

And I'll need to be knowing what is going on, what with working for a national newspaper next week

Yeah, Rockingham is on the 18th.

Thread rule 1: Anyone referring to the corner names via their new sponsorship names rather than the old "proper" names gets instant ban and pictures of Alice Powell stuffed through their letterbox.

Duffus Dip dammit!

Its ok. When the commentators at the track refer to the corners, even the they day Duffers, the Chicane, Clarks etc, so they don't even bother.

Is that meant to be a deterrent?

I was thinking the same whilst looking at the track map. Seat Curves? Ugh.

Surprised nobody's mentioned it yet but Marino Franchitti will be making a guest appearance in the Ginetta Supercup this weekend.

Only the second BTCC meeting at Knockhill I've missed since 1997... Justin TV will have to do!

“There’s always a decent chance of rain at Knockhill and if it is wet then that could help us a bit, although I was slightly amused by Tom Chilton who drove this car last year saying on your site he thinks we might struggle this weekend. From someone who’s 90 points behind us in the championship it’s nice he cares so much.”

Look at the Proton.

Not bad.

kart99 · PostPosted: Sat Sep 03, 2011 11:34 am

It's also fairly wet, so that's good wet pace from the Proton.

Are we missing two cars this weekend?
