You don't happen to have any onboard from your car(s) there do you?

Re: Hawkswood sealed sprint 10Nov
Hi Neil,
good work! I don't have any gopro footage , but there is plenty on youtube. [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nDoBfc5u5E[/youtube] You will like the road...
I will go up there even if its wet in the morning. The forecast is for it to clear up during the day.
Last year I did a practise run and one timed run before it started raining.

Re: Hawkswood sealed sprint 10Nov
Yeah - I'm watching the weather too... I'll probably go if it's forecast to improve through the day.
Although since I lack a full cage and any sort of side intrusion protection, my aim for the day is to not go too fast

I may be sunk by the lack of an SFI suit. I have the SFi underwear, gloves and boots, plus helmet and HANS, but suit may not be good enough and not sure I can find one by Saturday... 
I'll call Palmside and Silvester in the morning - any other local suggestions?
