As above, the PVG are holding a sprint day at curborough this saturday open to all members of the club. (dont want to hear the usual slagging match about png i am bored of it)

Just wondering who was payed up and going if anyone as i am getting the nova out of the garage for this one. Going on a trailer though as its not taxed or insured. Taking the evo aswell to see if i can sneak it on as a nova saloon!

I think spectators are welcome if anyone lives close. Should be a good day. Lets wait and see if brett brings his car out to play, dave is he? About bloody time if you ask me

Ian, Curborough is in a town called lichfield not far from my house. Its about 30 mile from stoke.

As for no room for spectators there is loads! Its only a small track but there is alot of space around, it has a pit lane etc. Would be good to see a few faces there.

Neil, see you there mate :wink:
