Excellent stuff - what a bummer I\'m not in the UK  

Any chance of someone recording the series? either sending a tape/DVD/files so we can put on the web??

[clive]

I will be taping it but, hopfully one of our IT guys will be able to get it to you via the internet.

If not would someone with DVD recorder send me a copy and l will get it to Glenn.

I will contact ITV and see if we can have the shows for our site after they have been aired.

just seen an advert running for it on ITV ... looks like it will be very entertaining. There were a few big sideways moments on the add  ( I wonder if Mazda regretted using Cadwell as the first venue ... its not very forgiving )

[scooby_si]

Bro happy to burn it http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_2_200v.gif\' border=0> to DVD memory (as in me/him forgetting http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_13_15.gif\' border=0>) provided, seemed less happy about having to mess about with it in terms of compacting &/or editing so can more easily send via the the ole compoota http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/10/10_1_23.gif\' border=0> but as i say worst case should have a copy on DVD for ya & if best case it\'s not too massive or need fiddling with is there any cunning plans of where i can send it &/or upload it glenn given it\'s still guna be quite large, as in Si quite likely to crash computer with smilie abuse & wouldn\'t want it to fail at the last hurdle (KB or wotever) anyway lettice http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/12/12_4_64.gif\' border=0> no yer thoughts.....

I think Cadwell was ok but one of them got dropped pretty heavily at Knockhill.

Women drivers trying to drive RX8\'s round a race circuit eh?
So youve never seen an RX8 crash then?... you will now!!




\'Norton\' runs for cover

That would be great guys - a lot of interested people in Oz would like to see the series!  Take a note of the times they are doing, I think you\'ll be surprised how quick they are.

[Norton]

Good first program, very interesting, and im now looking forward to seeing the first race next Sunday.
Still a bit puzzled by the choice of exiting Cadwells club circuit hairpin for practising power slides though... a bit obvious that youre going to end up either clouting the bank on the left or the barrier on the right if you dont catch it. The resulting bent RX8s were a bit inevitable, but hey... wadda i know?!
Good publicity for the only new Rotary engined car available.

They are slow.  Very slow...

Last round the T Cars were faster but about 7 secs a lap which is 14yr olds in cars restricted to 100mph.

At Oulton they were doing about the same lap times as the Minis iirc

OK got it on DVD although my DVD player doesn\'t seem to like the type of disc it\'s on but has been checked & does work in top quality if you dont have an awkward sodding PC http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/3/3_8_1.gif\' border=0> anyway rules out me uploading it anywhere for sure so where/who does it need posting to?
