Fantastic day at the Equipe Sprint for us on Saturday. A great range of cars, along with the Mini's 😁, with good grids and an excellent format. The battles in Mini races, and the tussles by the two MK2 Escorts in their races were superb, and they did nearly a full lap of the National circuit side by side........ without contact 😳.

The driving standards all day and the battles for places were exceptional by all throughout the field, with racing room and respect given and received. Some professionals could take a leaf out of these racers book.

Only 2 jobs for Daisy over the day, both due to mechanical reasons so it meant we could see most of the action 😊.

Day 2 at Sywell now completed. Stayed mainly dry for the runway action. Todays jobs 1 bike, -1 kart (a repeat satisfied customer) - 2 cars, (again with one repeat customer πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ) and a dragster..........yep a dragster kart (blow me they are heavy πŸ₯΅)

Many thanks to Simon and the team of marshals for help this weekend in getting the customers back as quickly as poss to try to get another run. And as always at this event the good humour, and cooperation from the drivers.

A very enjoyable weekend and a good chance to look around the show and stalls. πŸ˜‰

Looking forward to next year πŸ‘

Well what a Sunday at the one day CSCC meeting today at Silverstone. Superb weather, 5 qualifying sessions and 6 races. An absolutely superb turn out for all the grids with a very wide range of cars, including 65 cars entered and on circuit for the Swinging Sixties race.

We and the other 3 breakdowns were kept busy all day (hence no pictures today). It was a final tally of six jobs for the day for us and a big thankyou to the Marshals who whilst thin on the ground helped immensely to move the breakdowns as quickly as we could.

There was even the sight of one of the Daisy team regressing to their marshalling days and pushing.....yes pushing a car from the middle of the circuit into the gap before resorting to mechanical methods to get it back to the team πŸ˜€ .

A enjoyable if somewhat active day πŸ‘

Excellent weather and Racing at the MSVR GB3 GB4 and GT cup meeting on the Grand Prix circuit at Silverstone this weekend.

Daisy made her contribution with 3 jobs on Sunday during a steady day. We had a couple of cars on the hook that got away on Saturday πŸ˜‰, but we won't count them and great to see them straight back out again.

So good racing, good company, a small job list and good weather. As near as it comes to a perfect weekend πŸ‘.

Daisy and the team are primed and ready to go for the first day of the MSVR GB3 & GB4 Championship.

Nice steady day today with four jobs. Excellent racing and a great mix of cars.

Again, thanks to our fellow marshals, recovery crews and the teams/ drivers for their help and friendly atmosphere. This being the first meeting for the rebounded classic was a very positive start, and a good foundation for the future based on the cars, the races and the mix of events.

Looking forward to next years event. Short recharge and MSVR next weekend.

An extra thank you to the formula Junior driver.........he will know why and its appreciated πŸ‘ πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ.
