Hopefully he'll have an extra seat in, but I don't know.

Weather forecast is now showing 27mm of rain between midnight and 7am.

Classes are just usually a suggestion, as you need to rely on a guys honesty - and usually the ego gets in the way of the honesty ;-)
I am a beginner then. :wink:

I know quite a few challenge cars will be there with passenger seats in. Best way to get a lap is to go and talk to one of them ;-)

Turn 2, the Esses and Turn 13 WAY scarier than the mineshaft.

Gents, Stu and I will be deciding who's in which class during scrutineering. Obviously you can move up or down if you or we feel it's necesarry.

Please note the track sessions open at 8h30am! We will be scrutineering from 7h30, with a drivers briefing at 8h00.

Access to the track will be by armband. No Armband, no track, no exceptions.

I can't wait any longer.

Been well over a year now since I last drove at Kyalami (April '10) and even that was in the rain. Can I go into the intermediate class then? :grin:

Awesome!

BTW - Do we HAVE to use the registered car or can we use a different one? (My SO thinks she'd rather drive hers than mine)
