An early start on Saturday morning and back to the Ring for 8am. We wanted to get as many early laps in as possible as it was expected to be one of the busiest weekends of the year. Unfortunately the track remained closed whilst paint was removed from the track.
We booked a lap in the M3 Ring Taxi which went out as soon as the track opened. It was driven by Dale Lomas who is the guy who runs the Bridge to Gantry website. I've a new found respect for fast BMWs. The power from the new M-cars is something else! Also i can't believe how calm Dale was, giving us a running commentary of what he was doing whilst overtaking boys steady. Even though it was a busy track he still managed an 8 minute lap!
I managed to get another three runs in during the rest of the day inbetween many many yellow and red flags.
