I'm thinking of trying to go to one of these races over the summer, and go for a good oul píss up. Never been to England before.

Mexi, I'm planning on going to Silverstone for the BTCC in September. If you happen to be down there then we should go for a cheeky pint.

Why? Red flags are the only bit of excitement you get at Oulton.

Ah yes, of course! Will definitely try my best to go, would be brill to meet up.

[breezyskells22 15]

have you seen what happen today anyone? 

[Hughesy 254]

That was horrific, only found out today. Luke in particular has bad injuries, so I'm hoping for a good recovery. Driving in the wet is tricky enough, driving in the wet with oil on the track is impossible, especially in the fastest section.

Pretty unbelievable footage from the practise, can't believe the red flag didn't come out sooner. 

[breezyskells22 15]

Aron is targeting the snetterton races after the summer break but the other 2 drivers Jeff Smith and Luke Davenport we have no idea of when these 2 will return to the track meaning who if required are the stand  by drivers for after the summer break (it also affects Jeff mini racing as well)

How is the BTCC community? I haven't heard form here in a while. Snetterton was awesome! I'm glad my favorite team BMR Subaru could score two wins. Ash Sutton is awesome. He took both wins with high ballast. The top of the championship is super tight. The next few rounds are going to be awesome.

[Hughesy 254]

Well me and @RevolvingPrawn are going to Silverstone together for the 3rd year in a row. Really looking forward to it. Sutton has been amazing this year hasn't he, especially considering how Plato has done in the same car.

Awesome! I wish I could go to a BTCC weekend. The cars are so cool and they sound so good.

Nice one, I'm hoping to go to it as well this year. I'll let you know if I do, hopefully could have a meet up!

[Hughesy 254]

Sweet, would be good to meet another person from this forum. :D

[Hughesy 254]

Trust Plato to get pole after I said he's been poor this season :joy:

Oh my gosh that's soooo great! Smack down by Jason.

[MBKF1 91]

Love Jason.

I actually had someone message me saying it was bad for their image. Like come on it was just a light hearted gesture, I've seen a lot worse from racing drivers, there always has to be one taking it the wrong way though...

I'm a Plato fan anyway, but I'd be more inclined to support a driver if they did that tbh, love a bit of a cheeky personality!

[Hughesy 254]

Exactly, he was only having a laugh, he said as much when he came back. Some people are too serious.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! He probably hugs trees.

Plato is an entertaining driver, but a lot of rubbish has come out of his mouth over the years! As brilliant as it is to seeing them winning, I do wonder if they need to restrain the Subaru's a bit. Really hope that Sutton can take the Championship this year.  

Gutted to see Jordan having another bad weekend. I really hoped he would be at the sharp end in the BMW this year. 

Best bit of Knockhill was the Newsham move on the final corner: absolutely brilliant bit of driving!

They already have restrained the Subarus a little. The start of the season was tough but right now they have a really good car and Sutton is a really good driver.
