Lol but no!

You can't easily cut and paste a piece of paper onto the interweb. Not without a scanner anyway.

The days organised by Combe are 30 quid cheaper though :wack:

Anyway - just got back from todays races at Combe, good to bump into the lads again, that Ginetta is really well prepaired :thumbs:
And there was some truely epic racing today, yet again the E30's were awesome from the fight for 1st right back to the epic battle for last :notworthy

Smart car's showed potential for if they could get a bigger grid on the go, and the near enough open series Saloons were amazing! Where else can you watch a Hillman Hunter going at it with a Jag XJS in TWR colours for the best part of 30 mins, while the lead is being contested by a 400+bhp RS500 and a mental M3? :D
Then there was the drift-tastic 540i, the Mk1 Escorts and all manner of others - can't wait for tommorrow:thumbs:
Had I realised BPM were camping at Combe I'd have stayed the night aswell for some partying :wack:

Lots of V8 powered goodness in the Britcar race too :nod:
