    Spare space available in a Pit Lane Garage

    Hope we get just enough rain to wash the track clean then it can stop for the racing. I have one or two spare spaces in a Pit Lane Garage for Saturday raceday. Anyone who is interested in taking a spot and sharing cost please PM me.
    pretentious moi?

    I have no desire whatsoever to test my wet weather skills ( and I use the term "skills" VERY loosely ) A bit of cloud cover is OK, less shadows and no low sun to cause sun strike. I will be able to come up with plenty of other excuses when they are required
