Just returned from Spa and The Ring with Dad and Greig and have to say it was one of the best times we have had in a while (on Track and off)
We had 2 full days at Spa with RMA, the first day was wet but that did not stop myself and Dad giving it beans on track, I have a small clip of me attempting to hang onto the Cup Car of Jim Geddie (lol, no chance!) but there was only a few seconds in it... the lap was a 3:06 in the wet and getting held up on 2 occasions, had a look at another lap and I managed a 3:04 which I was delighted with... BTW, Geddie crew were such a laugh, great bunch Jim, Glynn and all the Parker crew.

After Spa we headed for the Ring, again myself and Dad were giving it some, my previous best time was around 8:20 a shade behind Dad (Gung-ho does go for it there!) After having the car set up and such a good time at Spa I wanted to really to push on and get a good time... Below is our final lap of the day, Dad has camera in his car and I am in front, I got held up a couple of times which cost me a couple of seconds at most and Dad was held up also, think costing him a good 4/5 seconds... the lap from Bridge to Gantry is 8:15 and we estimate Dad would have been around 8:10 at best and I would have broke the magic 8min mark as I was a good 10 to 15 seconds in front when he comes around the final bend (I was cruising at 40 off the final bend)
