Some of the MR2s are also running in the 40 minute Future Classics race. I'll be using it to test out next year's proposed tyres - assuming they arrive in time, otherwise I'll eek the last bit of life out of my R888s!

The race started (dry), I dropped a few places, pulled them back, and was sat in 2nd in class gaining on the first in class guy, went to gerrards at 80-90ish the back stepped out as normal , I caught it, it went/felt funny I think the tyre derimmed and it sent me gravelwards, which I hit side on.

The result
