Thanks : )
I've done a couple of shows now as well, this pic is from Modified Nationals :)
I'm booked for a trackday at Mallory now as well.

I've sent my contact details via PM.
I should be able to bring two cars for the stand, a Z and our S12, so if you end up with lots of spare passes, please send me two.
I've just shared this on the two UK and Ireland S12 fb groups as well, so hopefully will get a few more booked:)
