Made my way upto Snetterton on Saturday for the Stingray 24 Hour 2CV race and even though they have a top speed of 90mph (with a following wind) the racing was pretty close.

I had left Brands Hatch a couple of hours earlier and it was raining there and it seemed to follow me all the way up the M11

Excellent, Martin, I like these. Enough of this Le Mans poncy-ness. This is proper endurance racing! :D
