Knockhill Sat 19th Sept
Travelled the 100 miles down south from Aberdeen to Knockhill today to go check out the famous Scottish Race track.
 Once there i put my coat and hat on  as it was nippy to say the least. The paddock was surprisingly empty. The hire car Slag was itching to get on track....   I went and watched some track action and soon saw Derek....  Once he had parked up i went over and said hello. The weather started to get a bit Scottish and wet... which was a shame as Derek was on new front Cups We went for a cuppa and waited for the weather to pass which it finally did.   Derek went out on track and after a while came in an offered me a passenger ride which i gladly accepted. I really liked the track and hope to drive it one day. It has up's and downs, blind corners etc. You defo need a good grippy set up to get the best out of it. It was obvious that Derek had driven round there a few time by the way he pushed the car to find where the grip was in the slippery conditions. All in all a good day and worth the 200 mile round trip. Good to meet you Derek and hope to catch up again soon. A few more photo's.

Good to meet you Bealo, glad you enjoyed it . I'm sure Shimmy done a rain dance somewhere but you saw the weather does change quickly. Good day in the end when it all dried up. Need to bring the csl next time. PS2's back on the car

I was on Holiday last week so couldn't make it up unfortunately.
Looks like it was a nice enough day though, Knockhill has it's own weather system. Were you working out of Aberdeen Bealo? Bit of a Change from the GOM.
