    Hi Stace, love the report and only down the road from me. Dont forget we are always looking for reports etc for the newsletter, and as we have said before its the members not the cars that make up the club so happy to receive any article, not just ones with Strats in them....

    Send articles to newsletter@stratosec.com

    Thanks

    Thanks chap. Next round is Cadwell Park so that should be fun. I'll do something similar and send it you

    I've actually lapped Cadwell quite a bit before (hadn't driven Silverstone at all before quali) so I should be more on the pace too

    Hi there
    not at all, I have run a 944S2 as my daily driver for 3 years and what a lovely car, have to say I am not so keen on the rear shape of the 968 and it weighs more than the 44 lol

    Tell Dave Steve Struthers sends his best wishes

    cheers

    The 968 certainly weighs more with me in it

    It's such a lovely thing to drive. I've yet to properly set up the suspension how I want it but it might get a run out at Blyton next week and that will give me a chance to play around with the damper settings.

    I'll tell Dave you said hello

    Re: Made it over...

    Did another race at Cadwell with my friend in the 306. Went well. We won our class again and it was pretty exciting towards the end. I had to make the car pretty wide in places....

    Anyway. Chris is selling the 306 so I've bought this instead.


    It's an ex-challenge series car. 215 bhp supercharged engine. AP brakes. S/Devices full cage. Carbon seats. Proper shizzle. It needs a small amount of work but we'll have it out racing in the same series next year. I'll post up some video from a test when we manage one

    In other news. My Dad moved to Chesterfield a few months ago. Turns out it's a couple of roads along from a Stratos owner by the name of Chris....

    Cheers John. Will pop by

    My first race of the season this weekend at Snetterton on Saturday. Looks like it could be wet...... Still, at least it will be nice and warm

    I'm actually a bit pleased it could be wet as I've only ever driven Snetterton in the wet anyway. This was us at Snet a month ago checked the car over after a winter re-furb.


    I'll do a little race report next week if anyone is interested?

    I remembered to finish :-)

    2nd in class and 4th overall. I'm getting passed on the straights quite easily so I need to sort that out really. Oulton in two

    I'll do a little report and the vid later in the week
