For the last Historic trophy (66) race before the Xmas brake, I wellcome you all to the Thruxton track. It is...., well, lets quote the track builders:
"Fancy a cuppa in the English countryside?
What better way to enjoy one of those "oh-so British" delights, than in the green fields amongst the brambles, nettles and scrub surrounding the old Thruxton airfield.
"Why," you say to yourself "would I want to do such a thing?"
Well it's because if you ween't there of a saturday and sunday watching those old bangers hammering around the race circuit, you just be referred to as an out-of-touch a pratt, now wouldn't you?"
And:
"Its a great track with good carrying speed and it will reward a loose diff, with lots of pedal to the metal!
Enjoy!"
I recommend that you all use the Ginetto fix. see below.
There will be chassis restrictions for this one based on the championship standings. Se below.
Please restrict chat to a minimum, (or maybe none).
Moderating will be by reported incidents only, however the moderator will review any incident on lap one. Please submit incident reports within a week after the race so that the moderators report may be out before the next race.
Best of luck.
