    Re: A BIG thanks

    I agree with all the thanks above, Garry and I had a fantastic weekend both on and off the track!

    This was the first big MX5oc event we've been to and we were both impressed by how friendly everyone was - from arriving on the campsite to being waved at as we left.

    Big thanks to all of the organisers, and the marshalls, if that was the first experience anyone had of driving on track they really could not have asked for anything better. Special thanks to Jon Smith, helping me arrange our booking for out track days before my membership card had arrived (!) and also to Steve the instructor for his time - I would highly, highly recommend instruction to anyone.

    Hellos to everyone we met (Hi Ian and Jack, I spotted your post above!)

    Re: A BIG thanks

    I endorse all the positive comments above, I had a blast! Thank you Jon, having experienced such a well run event I realise that the amount of planning and organising must have been huge - have a holiday!

    It was a privilege to be a part of the MaX5 race car contribution on Saturday, particularly giving Jon's Mission Motorsport broken men some hot laps in the afternoon. It was a good feeling seeing the smiles of all the participants, what a happy club this is!

    ian's mx:

    Just to say a big thanks to Jon and all involved in this wekends event. 

    Just a few pics I took when attending Sunday. Maybe next time I'll try a bit of track driving myself.

    Great Pictures Chap,

    Any chance I could have the one of the Mazawaki?? It looks really good in this shot.

    Again, I would just like to thank Jon and his lovely wife for working so hard to make sure that the weekend went off without any hitches.

    It was the first time that the Mazawaki was driven flat out since I made it over the last 5 months, and to say i'm happy with it now is an understatement!!!!

    Kind Regards,

    Darren
