Vintage tyres would be interesting - these are still available - everyone to run these in blue compound!!

If I make it this week, I won't be running vintage, so I reckon the first outing for nearly everyone will be the first round - should be fun!

Any 'dubious racing incidents' will lead to that driver's exclusion, I don't want the elderly plastics to be subjected to more abuse than they can handle!
