More accurately, the Uniroyal Fun Cup with saloon races from the Darlington and District Motor Club and club Formula Renault from the BARC. Dare I say it was wet? I am developing webbed feet from standing ankle deep in water at most of the UK's race circuits so far this season.

Here are some samples from today -

First of the DDMC races - gently does it on a very wet circuit:

Formula Renault in the wet is 'interesting':

It was crowded at times, this lot lead by a Caterham:

Anglesey tomorrow for more wet weather, looking at the forecast.

I'm suprised they got any track time at all yesterday Ken - the rain up here was horrendous most of the morning and into the afternoon. Knowing Croft, the conditions underfoot would not have been nice and pic #7shows this really well - nice timing.

Looks better today (Sunday!!) at Croft - hope its the same at Anglesey

Great shots Ken. I like #2 a lot for the very clean background it has. I still haven't quite managed to get the angle you've achieved in #3 which annoys me slightly as I like that composition a lot.

Cheers,

Simon.
